Tonight's Bedtime Story
Aelfheld has found a new book for The Senator!
The story of two boys who dream about opening a lemonade stand when a strange thing happens...Their dream gets stuck in Liberaland!
"Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! A Small Lesson in Conservatism" is a wonderful way to teach young children the valuable lessons of conservatism. In simple text, parents and children follow Tommy and Lou on their quest to earn money for a swing set their parents cannot afford. As their dream gets stuck in Liberaland, Tommy and Lou’s lemonade stand is hit with many obstacles.
Liberals keep appearing from behind their lemon tree, taking half of their money in taxes, forbidding them to hang a picture of Jesus atop their stand, and making them give broccoli with each glass sold.
Law after law instituted by the press-hungry liberals finally results in the liberals taking over Tommy and Lou’s stand and offering sour lemonade at astronomical prices to the customers.
I'm not sure it should be read at bedtime, however. Never want to read the scary stuff right before going to sleep. Posted by Cathy at August 14, 2004 09:19 AM
The sequel to this is how the parents and grandparents of these little boys work hard all their lives and pay lots of taxes on everything they earn. Later, when the boys inherit from their hard working parents and grandparents, the liberals decide to take half of everything, even though it has already been taxed.
Unfortunately, neither story is fiction.
