Help! Mom! There Are Idiots Writing Books!

This has to be the dumbest thing I've seen in a while: "Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! A Small Lesson in Conservatism"
"Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! A Small Lesson in Conservatism" is a wonderful way to teach young children the valuable lessons of conservatism. In simple text, parents and children follow Tommy and Lou on their quest to earn money for a swing set their parents cannot afford. As their dream gets stuck in Liberaland, Tommy and Lou’s lemonade stand is hit with many obstacles.

Liberals keep appearing from behind their lemon tree, taking half of their money in taxes, forbidding them to hang a picture of Jesus atop their stand, and making them give broccoli with each glass sold.

Law after law instituted by the press-hungry liberals finally results in the liberals taking over Tommy and Lou’s stand and offering sour lemonade at astronomical prices to the customers.
My favorite is the part where the Conservatives show up and tell Tommy and Lou they can't have a lemonade stand because a business partnership is defined as being between one man and one woman... okay, maybe that's something else.

I liked the part...

...where their parents come in and take half the money to go buy guns because they don't trust that guy down the street, despite the wishes of the neighborhood watch.

The part that's still growing on me...

...is when the Arab man tries to buy lemonade, and they raise the alert level of the stand to orange.
