Note to Mr. Shaman:

Quite obvious you have a hard-on for our last CiC.

I suggest you learn a little more about how our political system works.

There are 435 other people involved in policy making. Those that blame one man for their personal disappoinments are nothing more than naive talking heads.

Attacking Bush is all they got.

What? You expect anyone to effectively defend the Obama Administration?

You may as well hope to fly a balloon through a porcupine convention.

Mr Sham, can you please stop hiding your links behind misleading text? Nowhere in the article is Bush II mentioned. It's not even about politics; it's about a study on the possible repercussions of overly-protective parents: aka 'helicopter parents'.

Having said that, the article itself is an interesting read.

The study, which surveyed college freshman, is one of the first to try to define exactly what helicopter parenting is, and measure it. The term was originally coined by college admissions personnel when they started to notice a change in parents of prospective students - parents would call the admissions office and try to intervene in a process that had previously just been between the student and the college, said study researcher Neil Montgomery, a psychologist at Keene State College in N.H.

While the findings are only preliminary, and more studies are needed to back up the results, they suggest this type of over-parenting might lead to children who are ultimately not ready to leave the nest.

"I think what the helicopter parents did is they decided, 'OK we know what good parenting looks like, we're just going to ratchet it up to a new level, and our kids are going to be even better,'" Montgomery said. "The problem is, when they ratcheted it up, they went too far, and in fact, caused an expansion of childhood or adolescence."

Note to ghetto liberal parents: We'll make a deal. We'll never unleash another 1 George W. Bush if you promise to stop releasing millions of Jabars and Laqueeshas that suck on welfare for 60 years into our society.

Fair trade?

Nice bike, where do you put the batteries ?......

Mr. Shaman, what kind of raging D-bag puts a picture of his bike as an avatar? And quite a mediocre one I might say.

No. I was thinking more of unleashing another George Washington, John Adams, or Thomas Jefferson on the world.
