So, first I think it's best for everyone to hear the full MSNBC ad and transcript before we continue, and the general reaction from the right and the moderate left (whatever remains of the moderate left).
Transcript:
So, first let's fact check the first line:
We spend more per student than any other nation on Earth and get the worst return on our education than any other civilized country. However, let's forgive this error, and consider it a mistake. Perhaps she meant that we don't invest CORRECTLY. If we look at the final line, we see that she says "then we'll start making BETTER investments." Ok, so we'll give her a pass here, since she rectifies the error of the first line.
Well actually, since this was a well prepared PROMO ad, which was approved many times by their studio before they ran the ad, we actually CAN NOT forgive this for this error in such a short sub-100 word speech. This had to be intentional. This wasn't just something she said off the cuff.
But anyway, let's continue to give them the benefit of the doubt. Ok great, we're not investing correctly into the education of our children, we can mostly all agree on that. So what is their the solution, how will we start making better investments?
Oh, by making the State sovereign over your children, such that your children only belong to you as a privilege extended to you by the government; not by right, which must be abused before the government can intervene, no, now it's a privilege to have your children.
Apparently transferring Sovereignty from the parents to the government (over your children) will make public education investments "better." The way we're spending the money isn't the problem, it's you!
So, what's the Conservative reaction? Will first you can start by reading the comments on any of these videos, including the ad itself!
The liberal on Fox News was speechless and admitted it was indefensible:

Glenn Beck doesn't sound that crazy these days:

Hell, even Chris Hayes couldn't' defend it on MSNBC, so he had to deflect the attention by beating up on the Drugster (easy target) instead:

Seriously, Chris Hayes doesn't even mention lines 1-5 of the transcript.

Anyone who is not "outraged" by what they hear, especially after analysis, in case you only looked at the "surface" of the message instead of the Marxist "foundation" of the message, if you're not outraged, you're beyond hope, and I can't wait to see you on the battlefield when you drafted to suppress rebellion.

Welcome to World Media War I, in my opinion, this ad was deliberate and intended to cause this reaction.
Transcript:
1. We have never invested as much in public education as we should have, because we have always had a private notion of our children.
2. [Sarcastic] 'Your kid is yours and totally your responsibility.'
3. We never had a collective notion that these are OUR children.
4. So part of it is that we have to break through our private idea that kids belong to their parents, or that kids belong to their families.
5. We must recognize that kids belong to the WHOLE COMMUNITY;
6. Once it is everyone's responsibility, and not just the household, we start making better investments.
