Let Freedom Ring
Hobbled Wife reports on the following discussion with the kiddos.
Ahh, their grandfather would be so proud. (Paternal grandfather that is - Maternal grandfather will probably ask that the Dude be sent to a re-education camp.)
********
Update: The Hobbled Wife wanted me to make this point:
The "freedom" thing is a kindergarten speak concept-- along with "power" which is things the kids are good at. Dude says his "power" is swimming, playing soccer, reading and something else....
I told them we'll vote this afternoon. They were none too happy about it. We did have a very educational discussion about the different jobs of President, Governor and Mayor, and what a City Council is. I fear we have a budding Republican-- Bones [aka "the Dude"] was not at all happy that the Mayor/City Government can tell builders where and what to build in a park. (paraphrasing quote here....) "They're taking away their freedoms. You know "freedom" is making choices. If the government tells the builders what to do, the builders don't have their freedom." Yikes.
