Conservative Kids' Book Vilifies Pelosi

She's a tiara-wearing opponent of free enterprise

(Newser) Help! Mom! The Radicals Are Ruining My Country! sounds like what it is: A picture book aimed at conservative children—or maybe the children of conservative parents. In any case, a tiara-wearing Nancy Pelosi features prominently, and she ain’t a Santa Claus figure, notes Boing Boing. The book, which follows the travails of two boy entrepreneurs who run into big-government roadblocks, is a sequel to Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!

"That mother and grandmother has played an enormous role in ensuring that our children and grandchildren are shackled with debt for decades to come," author Katharine DeBrecht says of Pelosi.

"Going Rouge" Isn't aimed towards children. Just the immature.
