And if American children are anything like English children I'm starting to get very, very,
VERY worried.

Scary thought...
That's a disaster waiting to happen.
If it is true that them kids are our future...I figure this country has got a good 20 years left before the collapse

I heard something interesting on GMA. They said that the children's magazine "Weekly Reader" did a "mock election" and George Bush won at 63%!!!! Apparently this publication has never been incorrect in predicting a presidential election since it has been conducting this "vote."
Freeze this moment a little bit longer...
