OMFG

Seriously people?!

This makes me weep for the human race as a whole; and no the 'Right Wing" is not alone in having it's fair share of idiots.

This makes me want to drive to that woman's house and punch her right in the cunt. And prevent her from ever breeding again. She is so stupid it hurts me to even think about it. As is anyone who is afraid of "indoctrination" of their precious little snowflakes.

Don't get me wrong, I think Obama is fucking everything up and really throwing off those prophecies of him being the new messiah.

BUT FOR FUCK'S SAKE PEOPLE

He's going to tell them to stay in school, work hard and get good grades

OH FUCKING NO!

Sorry little bit of rage at idiocy in general. I think I'm going to watch it just on principal.

Apparently the repulican party is anti education, anti individual responsibility, and they denounce the speeches that Bush senior and Regean gave to address public education. Who knew?

I know that sometimes, you get the sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work -- that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star, when chances are, you're not going to be any of those things.

But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won't love every subject you study. You won't click with every teacher. Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right this minute. And you won't necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.
That's OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures. JK Rowling's first Harry Potter book was rejected twelve times before it was finally published. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, "I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."


Clearly this man needs to take a page from FDR and welcome the hate of his enemies, because if you're against this, I submit you need to get in line for Elemak's patented babymaker punches post haste.




Asked if the Collier school district would have made the same ruling about webcast "logistics" if Obama's Republican predecessor, George W. Bush, had proposed making a similar speech to U.S. students, a spokesman for Thompson told TIME, "exactly." But Dean calls it "a moot question" because "I don't think President Bush would have ever done it. He understood that this sort of thing starts in the home." But when reminded that Bush's father, President George H.W. Bush, broadcast a similar speech to the nation's pupils, Dean says, "That was different. It was, if I remember, largely a say-no-to-drugs speech."

I dont understand these wackos, they do realize this is the president of the united states. They make it sound like hes some kind of child molester, coming to diddle there children.
The right wing religious nuts have really gone off the rails on this one, if they back this nonsense. Bad enough theres birthers and death panel believing retards and the tea baggin loons. Might as well just put white sheets on em and be done with it, for crying out loud.

The brainwashing shall begin young, mwahahahaha.

Stupidity has no political party.

You can also chalk this one up to the "No matter what you do, there will be someone against it." crowd.

Jeesh, some people need to really get a clue.

I was thinking of posting a rant about this myself. My mother is a media specialist at an elementary school here, and was asking me a question about something when I saw that the school was giving parents the option to have their child opt out of Obama's address, and I don't remember the next 10 seconds. I think my brain broke and had to reboot. Somehow, even compared to all the dipshits at health care debates, "truthers," and anything that Sarah Palin has ever said, I just couldn't handle this mind-numblingly epic amount of stupidity.

I didn't even think it was possible to create the sheer amount of concentrated dumb it takes to be offended by a president making a speech to children about staying in school. I had always assumed that level of ignorance would create some kind of moronic black hole, consuming all knowledge in a 5 mile radius.

Welcome to Glenn Becks America!

There was a school district near me that went into panic mode and had posted on their website that they would not be showing the Obama speech to students. They have since changed their minds.

I am curious of OSi's opinion on this? Assuming he wont post something to just incite something.

It's easy to scare people with batshit crazy stuff like this floating around:

wOtGr1JFCnE

It has to be said... Sure BOTH sides have nuts, but the Right Wing is FLOODED with nuts and crazies.

This is the dumbest fucking thing I have ever seen.

It's easy to scare people with batshit crazy stuff like this floating around:

wOtGr1JFCnE

Looks like some kids who are inspired by Obama putting on a show and making a fool of themselves... Nowhere near as batshit crazy as the Right Wingers.

Comparing the kids to Glen Beck misses the point of why a video like that can be used to easily scare people into pulling their kids out of the Obama speech at school.

Nowhere near as batshit crazy as the Right Wingers.

Yeah, Left Wingers just bite people's fingers off.

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/09/health-care-activist-bites-off-the-finger-of-a-counter-demonstrator.html

Authorities today are searching for a healthcare reform activist who they said bit off the fingertip of a 65-year-old man during a fight at a MoveOn.org rally in Thousand Oaks.

Hmmm...lets see

1) Glenn Beck says that there are hidden communist symbols all over Rockefeller center.

2) Glenn Beck says that we have the best health care system in the world (of course this is after he did a whole show about our lousy health care system)

3) Glenn Beck sees hidden meanings in Obamas name

4) Glenn Beck thinks that the 2008 election was actually a Coup D'etat by communist socialist nazis

5) Glenn Beck thinks Communists, Socialists and Nazis are all the same

-------------------------------------

The kids in the video

1) They march in a military manner and wear fatigue pants...hmmm...who else would do this in a school...hmmm...surely not the JROTC

2) They each say what the election of Obama has inspired within themselves...commie things like Chemical Engineers, Entrepreneur, etc...

3) Who would want their child to be inspired by a President of the US...surely we would rather have our kids dressed in fatigues calling out that they want to be SAW Gunners, Rifle men, Mortar crews etc...

4) Anybody knows that kids in fatigues are dangerous, they should be out selling drugs, getting girls pregnant, watching pharmaceutical commercials in between their favorite reality show. How stupid are these inspired kids and the parents and teachers that sanction their inspiration?

5) I heard the one kid say he was going to be an entrepreneur. Do you think he knows that he has to give politicians spouses no show jobs in order to have legislation passed just for him?

From August, 2004:

Several Democrats who wanted to hear Vice President Dick Cheney speak in New Mexico on July 31st were required to recite an unusual pledge of allegiance. Before allowing them to attend Cheney's speech at Rio Rancho Mid-High School, the Bush campaign demanded they sign an endorsement form saying they support the president. A campaign spokesman said the pledge was intended to weed out Democrats who might disrupt the event -- but the "loyalty oath" infuriated many voters. "I resent the school that my taxes paid for being used for an event that's restricted to people who sign a pledge to the Republican Party," said Jim Brown, a longtime resident of Rio Rancho.

Comparing Glen Beck (or any adult) to those kids is irrelevant. Do you have a point at all?

Read the speech yesterday and it was exactly what i thought it would be.
the only political agenda i could see would be robbing the right of thier staunchest supporters. the ignorant.

I don't understand it either. My mom who voted for McCain (she was a Hilary supporter previously) just got into a huge fight with their superintendent who wasn't going to allow the speech be shown in a Philadelphia suburb.

In my mind its a good idea, Obama stayed in school and look where he is. Our education system is hurting and we need educated people desperately in the coming decades. A bit of the kids taking charge of their own education themselves is going to be paramount. And, he's the freaking President. I nearly peed my pants when I met GWBush the first time and I hated a lot of his politics - its still a pretty impressive and important figure for our country.

They were upset about what they thought the speech would contain, not the actual speech. This all ramped up before the content was known.

The actual speech was obviously fine.

This is the local high school band shortly after listening to the Obama speech today.

Indeed, lots of socialism, communism, and nazism in that there speech.

They have it hidden as subliminal single letter suggestions, Glenn Beck will have a show about this tonight, tommorrow, the day after that, next week, the following week, then in November, December....


The bolding is mine

Like this line: What you're learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.

The bolded s in school means "socialism" and if you notice he said you're. If you remove the 're from you're it says you and that is followed by learn and the bolded s (my bold). This then told the kids to learn socialism.

Then we see the bolded c, this is c for communist, followed by the bolded word meet which tells the students to meet communists.


Obviously the bolded n's mean nazi which if you look are followed by the word future, meaning a nazi future.

It was never about the speech. It was about the "class room activities". His little Hitler Youth program. But, it seems everything was sanitized after the much deserved ruckus in the media..

Oh...then I guess all that stuff the republicans were freaking out about the speech was mis-directed? They could have said don't let the kids give ideas to the teachers.

The classroom activities included such terrifying indoctrination as asking the students to identify who the president is and what he did, as well as what they could do to help their country.

God damn un-American.

LOL It was about writing a letter to themselves about what they could do to "help the President". When you leave something like that open to interpretation, loonies will take it, and run.

I'm sure someone thought "helping the President" = turn your parents in for 'unpatriotic actions'.

Actually yes... "Help me, dear students. Let me re-educate you. Let me help you filter out what your parents teach. Follow me students. I am your Dear Leader." He's a creepy mo-fo... "look at what you too can become, hell i'm not even a US citizen and I'm president." He's made a mockery of this country and so do you all...

You're a creepy mo-fo, how do you sleep at night?

lol wut?

On a positive note my daughters wonderful school district did not even bother to show the indoctrination speech. Made no mention of it and continued on like normal. Good for them. No need to distract kids with a pretentious idiot rambling on about things she already knows...

Haha.. you have daughters... LOL Thats great!

I can't wait for the Chris Rock principle to strike you.

"Whatever you hate, will wind up in your family"

Here are the going odds we can bet on what his daughter is going to bring home in a few years.

Even: Former Convict
2- 1 Black man
3 -1 Mexican Immigrant
5 -1 Girlfriend
1 -5 Liberal

Bonus Payment if you hit the exacta and Thanksgiving a few years from now his daughter is sucking face at the dinner table with a black, illegal immigrant, liberal woman who just got out of jail.

A speech to school students is not the issue.

Health care is not the issue.

Socialist policies are not the issue.

The economy is not the issue.





RACISM is the issue!!!!!


This country that prides itself on it's "progress" has not come anywhere near resolving the racial barriers and attitudes that have remained in place and which can be easily provoked by those who find them easy fodder, on both sides.

It was never about the speech. It was about the "class room activities". His little Hitler Youth program. But, it seems everything was sanitized after the much deserved ruckus in the media..Did you actually look at the classroom activities (http://www.docstoc.com/docs/10582301/President-Obama%E2%80%99s-Address-to-Students-Across-America-September-8-2009)? Note that those are the terrifying K-6 plans, I sadly lost the subversive upper level plans in my email somewhere. Seriously, that's what terrifies the Right? This should be easy...

Truth be told, the hard right is against public school in the first place, so I suppose any speech telling students not to drop out is obviously going to raise issues. The conservative forums were full of fears the last week that the speech would begin the Obama Youth, or whatever else.

So, with the transcript posted a couple of places, what exactly was evil, Osig? Don't give me the sanitized load of crap, the Obama administration isn't exactly running in fear as the Right begins foaming at the mouth.

Closest part of the whole thing to a political agenda was the kid who opened for Obama, but meh.

Yep read them... found both the plans creepy as shit...

Yep read them... found both the plans creepy as shit...Which, the part where they have to identify who the President is, or where they write down what they can do to help...the nation in the future? Oh no!

Makes me happy we have 3 more years of Obama...at least. Enjoy Osg.

Just to be fair, and remind us that both sides are stupid: http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/When-Bush-spoke-to-students-Democrats-investigated-held-hearings-57694347.html

I didn't fact check this. I was a little young at the time to know/care/understand.

To be fair, President Bush gave a speech quite similar, in content if not having an inspirational quality, to that given by President Obama.

However, the hypocrisy of the educational policies of the Bush administration as compared to the Obama administration must be taken into account.

RACISM is the issue!!!!!

No it's not, at least it will stop being an issue when people stop bringing it up at every turn.

Actually it does look like alot of bigotry from some of these nut cases i see. Stick sheets on em while they burn there Obama effigies and wave there bibles in the air, and it would be the perfect clan meeting.

I dont give a crap anymore, i just cant take these people seriously. There the folks you find crawling around a hillbilly redneck trailor park, in a bad jerry springer episode. They dont have a brain in there heads to think for themselves, and need morons like Rush Limbaugh, Glen Beck, Sean Hannity or the other bubble heads on faux news to think for them. Not to mention those televangelist Rip off fakes, they throw there money at in hopes for a bogus pass to heaven.
Theres no differance between these tea baggin idiots, then those code pink dullards on the left trying to grab attention for themselves. And its all about Attention for themselves, they all want on TV, they want there 15 mins of fame. Hey, lets all go to a Town hall meeting and scream everyone down, and the media will put us on TV!! Ohhh a cripple in a wheelchair trying to speak about healthcare, lets shout her down and scream shit at her, til the TV cameras are focused on us!
Sick fuckin people.

There are racists on both sides. That doesn't mean that everyone on both side is motivated by race. That's an asinine thing to even suggest.

Everyone here BUT YOU knows I hate Obama for his policy and decision making ability and that's it. I think it's personally wonderful to have a bi-racial (you did know he has a white mother right?) President.

Everyone here BUT YOU knows I hate Obama for his policy and decision making ability and that's it. Well, we WOULD know that if you ever answered direct questions or posted rational points in a debate. :D

I am tired or rational debate. It gest you know where... You know I love trying to pop a blood vessel is Rovers brain. Don't even try to come back and say you don't get mad Rover casue we've seen your retarded posts and know better.

LOL..no I really don't. What I do is try to figure out why people like you have such big mouths yet no rational solution. I also am curious as to your desire to see others stand up for your constitutional rights while you'd never consider standing up yourself.
