Get A Grip, Young Republican

I can't moan about how wrong it is that every vestage of decency is forced out of school because some Satan-worshiping Che Guevera wannabe is offended if I don't also moan about young Repubs getting upset by anti-Bush sentiments on campus.

Our schools are getting way too sensitive, and we're raising a generation of crybabies. From AP via the Sacramento Bee:
Bush-as-Groucho posters spark furor
at San Fernando Valley school


Posters for a San Fernando Valley high school play that depicted President Bush with Groucho Marx-style eyebrows, mustaches and a cigar were ordered torn down after a student complained that they were offensive.

Principal Kenny Lee ordered 100 posters removed from the campus of El Camino Real High School in Woodland Hills last week on grounds that they promoted smoking and "endorsing one ideology over another." ...

Controversy erupted when a senior who supports the president wrote a letter to the administration complaining about the poster's depiction, teachers and students said.

"We had one student who was very upset," Lee said. "So much turmoil within himself, he was distraught."

Turmoil within himself?! Oh, please. I thought it was Dems who were supposed to be softies with feelings, not upstanding young Republicans.
