The Creepiest Thing I've Seen in a Long Time...

DateWednesday, October 1, 2008 at 6:00AM

These are little kids in North Korea, brainwashed into singing songs of hope and devotion about The Dear Leader (Kim Jong Il).

That's pretty creepy, but the creepy thing I wanted to show you is below the fold...

These are young children in the United States of America, singing songs of hope and devotion about The Dear Leader...

I try and explain to my friends in sophisticated places like New York and San Francisco and Paris and London and Bogota and China why those of us in the middle of America cling to our guns and religion. They try to convince me that if only I'll let go of my guns and religion my kids won't have to spend sunday mornings in some weirdo church classroom covered with giant, Christian propaganda banners singing songs about Jesus with hand motions but instead can spend their Sunday mornings... oh, never mind.
