This is just begging for a reply.
''It struck me as I was speaking to people in Bangor, Maine, that this president sees America as we think about a 10-year-old child," Andrew Card said. ''I know as a parent I would sacrifice all for my children."

1. How insulting to America! Who's your Daddy? Not Bushie
Those kids in the Florida classroom were probably around 10 years old. His actions show he doesn't care about keeping them out of harm's way.

3. Andy misspoke
What he meant to say was, "The pResident sees America as a ten-year-old child would, and expects every citizen to sacrifice all for his own good."

4. I think many people LIKE being treated like a child.
Then they don't have to think or take responsibility. They don't have to be scared of the baddie terrorists 'cause daddy's looking out for them.

Seriously, I know voters like this. They are on board with John Kerry on policy issues. They know Bush is wrong, but they are going to vote for him anyway, 'cause he seems decisive and strong. More like divisive and wrong, if you ask me. Lazy bastards.
