Indoctrinate early, indoctrinate often
Perry de Havilland hasn’t read Why Mommy is a Democrat, but his guess as to its content is a good one:
Presumably it teaches children that just as ‘Mommy’ looks after Junior and makes him share his toys with the kid next door, if the kid next door refuses to share his toys with Junior, Junior should threaten to lock him in the attic and take the toys he wants by force… just like the nice Democrats use the threat of jail for people who do not ’share their toys’ like they are told.
But what about Republicans? Perry notes in the comments:
[T]he book I happened across was ‘Why mommy is a Democrat’ not ‘Why mommy is a Republican’, or I else would be making nasty remarks about Junior using eminent domain to take the kid next door’s sand box so he can build a playground on it for himself just like the [Supreme Court], with its majority of Republican appointed judges, said property developers can do…
