I guess I just don't get it

I don't understand what the big deal is with this argument on the radio this morning. McDonalds is offering a free Happy Meal to those who achieve good grades on their report card. There is a big stink going on about how that's not fair to parents who don't allow their children to eat at McDonalds. Oh, for heavens sake! Get over yourselves. If you don't eat at McDonalds offer a similar reward to your child or just say, I'm sorry but we don't eat there and move on. Will there be a fit...most likely, will they get over it...yes definitely. Geez, don't make a stink and take away that reward from children who's parents would allow them to use their coupon.

Onto other news, Oprah is joining the campaign trail to support Obama. Really, she is putting her name on a candidate who has clearly shown potential, but has also demonstrated that he really doesn't have the political experience yet. Way to go Oprah! I honestly believe that her support is a truly dangerous thing, she can sway public opinion. Do we really want a president with only minimal political experience?
