Subject: What shall we tell our children.

This is good!

Vice Presidential candidate Sen. Joseph Lieberman recently
asked the question, "What will we tell our children if every
vote is not counted?"

Here is the response of one citizen:

"As a former teacher, I have been concerned about Joe
Lieberman's question, "What will we tell our children?"
What we should, and must, tell our children is that if they
fail to mark the right answer on an exam, or do not fill in
the entire test, they will not get credit for their answers.
If they do it often enough and if they do not ask for help or
read the directions properly, they will fail.

We should tell them that when they are older and move to
Florida, they must fully read their ballot and remove the
entire chad and not keep an entire nation waiting because of
their mistakes.

We must also tell them to read and read well, to play by the
rules and expect a favorable outcome.

Teaching them to make excuses for their mistakes has led to a
society of victims unable to take responsibility.

Amen and Amen!
