"Conservatives Protest Obama's Nefarious Plot to Have Schoolchildren Learn Things in School"

What's wrong with telling kids school is not such a bad place? Think of those underqualified people who have no other choice but the Army to pay for their "start" in life. That's absurd. I don't understand the Republican side either. They are protesting because a black socialist say school is good? He may be black, he may be a socialist, but he said a good thing. Republicans always want to keep the people uneducated, that's how they win elections, out of stupidity and fear

hey buddy, perhaps if you participated in threads that were discussing this, and which were showing what sort of indoctrination we are talking about, perhaps then you would realize that members FROM ALL POLITICAL SIDES agree this is indoctrination... But no, just another member claiming "Republicans want to keep people uneducated... Get a life.

It has to do with the fact that the president shouldn't be doing what THE PARENTS should be doing... Which is teahing personal responsibility to children, what goals the children should have, etc.

Sorry.
Parents take responsibility?

Thats a good one.
NO ONE takes responsibility anymore. Its just not taught.
Neither is balancing a checkbook or creating a budget.
Or living within your means. Its all just a plastic wrapped sham.

Yes, PARENTS should make decisions, and not the President..

Just because some parents, and some people don't take responsibility it doesn't give the right for the President, or the administration to take over what is the responsibility of parents.

If all that is the truth then google me this: why the hell didn't anyone say a word when Bush went into schools personally and worked to influence children and pep them up for their future? He not only spoke in our schools he went out of the country and spoke to other nations children with no protest whatsoever. WTF

If in your reality, pal, folks are hung for daring to have a different opinion than your own, then I don't want any part of it.

In my reality, politicians should be held accountable for their decisions about the fate of the country. Do you really think that the Republicans' implementation of the so-called "Fair Trade" was in any way beneficial to the majority of the working men and women of this country? Do you really think that any of the ones who voted it in really give a damn about what you think?

Again, accountability is king. Make the jerks accountable and they will work for us. Give them leeway and perks from lobbyists, and they work for the lobbyists. Hang a few of the worst offenders and the rest will understand who they work for.

It has got a lot more to do with jsut the president addressing children... It has to do with the fact that the president shouldn't be doing what THE PARENTS should be doing... Which is teahing personal responsibility to children, what goals the children should have, etc. The president is being put in a pedestal, as if he was the "sheppherd of the children" and that children should be looking up to him, and not up to the parents. Of course it isn't enough that children starting from seconddary school will have to do compulsory Community Service, instead of the parents deciding this...

How can you make that claim when you have no idea what the actual speech is about? He's teaching kids personal responsibility? He's being put on a pedestal like hes the "sheppard of the children? and he's telling kids to look up to him instead of their parents!?

Are you people serious with this stuff that you make up!?

Honestly, I am totally blown away by the overdramatizations, blatant ignorance, and flat out lies that are being spewed over this.

Get a life.

the point is you guys are over reacting WAAAAYYY to much.

I will tell you from a political standpoint you are going to hard.

The politicization of EVERYTHING WILL squander you recent gains -
As much as independents dislike the spending, they dislike the partisanship even more.

Down the road when a truly valid and important indiscretion arises you will have wasted it any clout on THIS.

Gloves back on

I think its that paranoid thing again.
We are so disillusioned and jumpy anymore every little thing sets us off.
Hard not to be though when you see what ALL of them are doing to this great land.

Guys, you cannot change people's ideology, they have to have an experience that does that for them. Republicans, bless their souls, are young souls. They are still in the phase of soul growth where they are focused on the self. The republican heat and focus is on service to the ego. I don't want to pay taxes, I don't want to see my hard earn money take care of other people's sick kids, my social beliefs should dominate government. They fought medicare, they fought social security, the idea of taking care of our old.

Now if you take some democrats who fight for social improvement, go out assisting the poor, find ways to caring for the sick, tries planning of the common good, the old idea of taking care of the village; those ideas are more important to old souls. They have already experienced the lessons of egocentric pursuits during their past lives and are further advanced on the path of life we all are traveling. Old souls have learned there are more important pursuits favored by the model of our existence. Obama is a very old soul. There are exceptions to everything and the Bell Curve can be applied to the statistics, but as a whole democrats are on average older souls than republicans. Some of you can take heart in that and smile and those who take exception should not. We were all republicans some time in our souls travels and we all eventually come to the more giving side of our humanity.

On some level, I agree with you. But if you genuinely think that hanging the president is the correct way to go about reaching those lofty goals, then I'm not entirely sure you belong in society.

And I say that with all due respect.

I have never seen such blatant hatred for a president, Bush is a criminal, and I have never seen hate hurled at him like it is at Obama, and all Obama is doing is speaking to the youth. Is this racism? Is that the reason for all the hate? I live in the south, I am white, and I have never experienced racism ( the southern stereotype is not present here) but I would just about swear this has to be the reason for the rage, because no other reason makes any sense at all.

And I should care what you think? Trust me, I don't. Until we demand accountability from our so-called leaders we will continue to be pissed on and disregarded. Do you have a better way to solve the problem?

EU, you are exaggerating to extreme degree, this is a one off event.

And how crappy of a parent would one have to be to lose their child to "socialism"
in one address?

Are you sure you are nit trying to parent other peoples children?

Really? I guess children being shown i school a video where some celebrity says "I pledge to serve barack Obama" is not important enough for ya...

That was one of the latest threads in which several members discussed what this is all about.

at 3:15 you will see where some pop culture star proclaims how he pledges to serve Barack Obama, and this sort of video has been shown to children in school. This is what we are talking about.

Barack Obama should be serving us, not the other way around..

Here is one of the threads where that video is being discussed.

I keep saying this and I will again.
When the right wings takes over in 2012, the real (nuke) war begins.
Remember the bomb, bomb, bomb iran song?
Guess where we would be if mccain was president.
I guarantee we wouldnt be talking about this.

The fact is that Obamabots are simply unwilling to acknowledge the intellectual beliefs of Obama and his lifetimes' worth of Far Left associates.

They are unwilling to admit that these Radicals openly acknowledge that they seek to indoctrinate children via schools in Marxist ideology.

They are unwilling to admit that the President's goal is a Marxist transformation for America.

They are all to willing to believe the absolute worst about conservatives.

Facts and reality do not need to apply.
