Bush Baby Einstein

"No, see this is a really shit idea. You know why? Because it's really obviously a shit idea." -- 28 Days Later

According to the tabloids, Britney Spears puts Pepsi in her kids' baby bottles. And I know that sounds bad, but 1) She used to endorse Pepsi, and you have to admire a celebrity spokesperson who actually uses the product, and 2) At least she's not making them watch Baby Einstein.

Turns out, that crap'll make you retarded.

According to a new report in the Journal of Pediatrics, for every hour a day that toddlers watch Baby Einstein, they learn six to eight fewer words than toddlers that don't. Which may explain the company's slogan, "E = M C-student," but probably not, because that's just a joke.

Wait? Now it's bad to make babies watch television? Who knew?

You know how we should have known it was a shit idea? Because it's really obviously a shit idea.

~snip~

And of course "Baby Einstein" doesn't work. Bush endorsed it. So it makes kids stupid? We're lucky it doesn't kill them.
