Trying to tell us something?

Conservative astroturf organization Progress for America has adopted Noah McCullough, a 10-year-old Presidential trivia whiz, as its spokesperson for president Bush's Social Security plan.

While I will admit it is kind of cute to have an adolescent whiz kid as your spokesperson (a kid who already has his Presidential campaign website set up), could it be that only a child can honestly go out and stump for the plan? Most adults would require either a lack of ethics or a complete suspension of logical capacity to accept the President's ideas for Social Security.

While this may be old news, it just strikes me as ironic that they would send out a child to try and rally support for the President's ideas.
