And the children should lead them.

Kira and I had the most interesting conversation as we drove around Costco looking for a place to park.

Kira-Wow, the parking lot is really full today. That's because Barrack Obama is our president and he is giving everybody money. I wonder why they are spending it all instead of saving it.

Mom- Hmmmm that my girl is a really great question. Why do you think our President is giving everyone money?

Kira-Because he has lots of money.

Mom-Where do you think he got all that money?

Kira-He makes it?

Mom-Not exactly, more like he takes it.

Kira-Oh, like Robin Hood - He takes from the rich and gives to the poor.

Mom-Kinda, but who do you think the rich are?

Kira-The mean guys?

Mom-Well, he actually takes money from dad. Is he a mean guy?

Kira- What??

Mom-Uh huh!

Kira - That's why we should have got Sarah Palin, right?

Mom - WOW honey, you are smarter than half the country..
Oh if only children could vote.

I wish Kira could come here and explain it to the British Government.
