What a Role Model!

President Obama made history this week! He spoke to the kids about staying in school and getting an education! Wow, what a guy! The liberals were touting this as a history-making event. No President has ever done this before...

I started thinking about the things that make this man a role model.

He's always late. It doesn't matter if the nation is waiting for one of his "important" speeches or events. He always makes sure that everyone is on the edge of their seats with anticipation, awaiting for him to make his appearance. I was always taught that it's bad manners to make people wait on you.

He smokes. Of course he's trying to quit. Now that's a good role model for kids to follow. And he's preaching about health care...

He surrounds himself with liars, thieves, tax cheats, and terrorists for friends. Aren't we always preaching to our kids that the people you hang around shows the type of person you are?

He insists that religious markings are covered before he will speak at a podium. He doesn't have a National Day of Prayer. He can't decide on the Church he should attend. This speaks for itself, doesn't it?

He brags about being on food stamps and other programs. Shouldn't we be teaching our kids not to even consider this unless it's the last resort? And should we be proud that we have done it? I think self-reliance is more important.

Just these few items suggest to me that Obama is not a good role model for children or for that matter, adults!
