    Yep we got our priorities straight; celebrate guy who won the 7th grade shotgun target contest; belittle and bully the foreign-looking brilliant wordsmith/clock maker.

    Yet there's wonderment at why our "education system is failing" and why does America lag behind in manufacturing and worker productivity.

    He seems like a curious, mischievous kid. Lock him up.

    And there is this:

    Kubiak, the eternal civil rights ideologue, was growing uncomfortable with Sam Houston’s administration. He complained to the superintendent that the school was too quick to suspend children and said he refused to use a new student evaluation system that “wrote some kids off.” He was booted down to teach sixth grade last year — and he knew he was done.

    They were probably plotting an Islamic uprising while drinking purple drank and smoking dope.

    "War criminal" is putting it mildly with Al Bashir. Orchestrated outright genocide campaigns to exterminate non-muslim tribes in Darfur and southern Sudan. Also provided safe haven to Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda in OBL's pre-Afghanistan years. One of the nastiest characters in the world today.

    Obama might wanna re-think that White House visit with clock-boy. This story already had a suspicious stench to it, now made even smellier.

    Betting the kid will cancel the trip due to a "previous engagement."

    "Have you ever been convicted of a war crime?"

    "Convicted? No, I've never been convicted."

    So, he's planning on meeting with two world leaders accused of war crimes in the same week?
