Ok a took several minutes but I did get to hear just a bit of it...

That song does not sound like a song at all... It sounds like a cadence.

Those children are being manipulated...brainwashed... Literally.

How many of you military folks can still remember all your cadences?

This ....is ..This is war. They are doing this to your kids...

Not acceptable. not by any measure.

[repeat post]

There is something 'off' in any country that espouses 'praising their leaders' as a matter of educational policy.

Apparently this is yet another aspect of how we have become more like the third world in recent times.

[/repeat post]

I suspect the lyricist must be in love with Mr. Obama; such assertions as these children are learning to repeat are far over the top.

The overwhelming feeling I get from that is ... creepiness.

If I were the parent of one of those children... heads would already be rolling in that school district.

Yeah, that's great!

Hopefully all the parents of those kids are aware of this video and watch it. I'd love to hear some feedback from them.

Peace

weird!!! i haven't been this disturbed since october 2001.

wonder what songs those teachers will be teaching kids when their pay gets cut because AIG aren't able to pay back their debts!!!

aren't personality cults so disturbing though.

Sorry, couldn't watch the whole thing,(wanted to puke after the first twenty seconds) The teacher an school board should be beaten if this is the garbage their forcing onto those kids.

oh by the way, i'm sure you feel the same way, when they have to sing the praises of a christian god, a mythical being.
while i feel this shouldn't be done, and this teacher reprimanded, i don't think she should be " beaten"
maybe we can have all the christian teachers "beaten" because they are indoctrinating kids to worship god and if they don't obey, they will be sent to hell...yeah, apparently no problem with that. i consider that garbage, and that has been happening for along time, and no one has the b*lls to stand up to that indoctrination.
i mean, have you ever talked to some of these young people that come around to your house and want to save you in the name of the lord. i've been looking for the armbands and jackboots, but the only thing i've seen are blank smiles, and heard bible verses, no matter what question you ask them.

Ok, that teacher seriously needs her arse beat. I mean it. I'm honestly surprised she didn't write in "Now we gonna stick it to whitey" in there somewhere. Flat-out ridiculous. Those parents need to be outraged and demand this witch be terminated (as in fired).

I wonder how the Obama Bots are going to justify this , I've notice most of the time they shrug see it as now big deal . It gets more side ways every day . 2 years ago the same people who hated the Bush regime for the wars now agree with the wars because their guy is in. War is peace.

The difference is that the parents choose to send their kids to a Christian school.

There is no choice here.

The whole church and state separation thing should be expanded to idol worship and state.

For the love of pete people, dont put your kids in these government schools. They're just as bad as these private churchy schools with indoctrination and worse if you take into account the horrible educational standards they have.

I'm looking for context here, and I'm not finding any.

All I'm seeing is knee-jerk reaction.

So, someone explain please the actual background to what you see on the video, without the die-hard politcal rhetoric that has so far accompanied this?

Maybe something from the school itself? Surely they've been asked to comment on it?

When compared to the Hitler video, I do not think context matters much.

Well yeah, it does.

Firstly, the Hitler Youth was state organised, state sponsored and no one had a choice at all as to whether their kids attended.

Second is that without context, this could be anything. The kids could have had the idea themselves because of the election and the school ran with it because it was topical, it could be a class theme in social studies or music studies and the whole president thing was chosen, or its possible that the The President could have been visiting the school and they wanted to put on a show - anything like that. Hell - the kids could be there entirely of their own free will in some after class thing.

I'm not saying any of the above is correct, but thats why I'm asking.
Context is key. No one (and I've looked it up on Google too) seems to provide any.
