Socialism

There's a saying making the rounds on twitter, facebook and the occasional protest sign:

Obama is not a brown-skinned anti-war socialist who gives away free health care. You're thinking of Jesus.

It's a clever saying, but Jesus frowned on forcing one's views on others, not to mention taking things from people by force. Thus he was not a socialist.

Voluntary charity? He was all for it. Submitting to an oppressive government? His own advice. Using government to oppress others? Not his cup of tea.

Pronunciation

My toddler is still working on pronunciation and enunciation. When he tries to say "There is a man in the big truck!" it sounds like "Man big cock!"

At least, I'm pretty sure that's what he's trying to say.
