1. Look at all those children suffering so in a public school.
Too bad they can't all go to a private school, cuz that looks like hell. :sarcasm:

3. It's a charter school.
I think of them as publicly funded charter schools -- but that's essentially what they are here in Arizona.

4. You can tell that this is who they are
They don't look the least bit uncomfortable. Oh, it's so good to have a first lady whose arms actually move without being wound up.
