I am not trying to sound like an alarmist, but there are some deeply concerning and unsettling rumors going around http://www.thetreeofliberty.com/vb/s...ad.php?t=45498 "My son, who is in 1st grade, came home yesterday saying that he didn't want to go back to school anymore. So I asked him why? He said that during the Pledge of Allegiance the teacher put up a large image of Obama next to the flag. I asked him if he was sure of this and I suggested to him that maybe the teacher just put up an 8x10 photo of the president. He said, "No, it is a large picture of Obama and when we are done Ms. **** turns off the image." I also asked if they did this for Bush last year? He again said, "No." This was my sons first day back to school since before Christmas, he was on a 5 week track break. My wife volunteers a couple of days each week with helping out with my sons teacher doing various duties. She said that she would come in early this morning to see what was going on. She just got back and reported that this was true and then some. She said she waited out in the pod area and could see inside 3 of the 5 class rooms in this section of school. She said that when the kids stand each teacher flips on the classroom overhead and a full body image of Obama, with six U.S. flags behind him, comes up about 4 feet away from the flag that hangs on the wall. She said that the image has Obama staring straight at you with no facial expressions, just a serious look. I asked my wife if Obama had his hand over his heart? She said that she was so taken aback by this that she didn't see it. What is worse is she said that all of the kids in each class faced Obama instead of the flag that hangs in the corner." "Also, she said they now turn off the lights in the room so the Obama image can be seen clearly. The picture of Obama is shot up on the screen which is about 5' x 6'. I am thinking we will get video first and then schedule an appointment with the principal." man, I don't know... if this is real, the parents better make this known to the world True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made. -FDR .
Overzealous teacher? Ok how is this negative to Obama in any way? He didn't tell the teacher to do that at least I hope not.
I redirected this OP to this thread also so viversa.. http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=347531&f=36

Sounds like a lying rightwing piece of JesusCamp shit who already has his first-grader brainwashed to hate "niggers." But whatever. I support anything that makes conservatives whine, bitch, cry, and finally, in despair, put a gun in their mouths, and spray their stinking evil brains skyward.

you just verified my suspicions that liberals are just as hateful as conservatives are. good job lion. i used to think pretty highly of you, but i can't say that so much anymore. speaking of bitching and whining, if you want to witness some of that. just even try and attempt some amount iof sane discourse with your average liberal. most of their arguements are made on an emotional basis, rather than a logical one. there';s never been a single liberal social porgram in this country which hasn't backfired or outright failed.
This must be another instance of a republican pr campaign, seems to be making the rounds on the internet. We've already had a couple of threads started on it. The pledge is strictly voluntary if the kid doesn't want to say it all he has to do is sit quietly in his seat. Presidential pictures have always been a part of every classroom I've attended.
I reeeeaaallly boudt it went this far, this extreme. And hey, if it did? Yeah its a bit Nazi-ish, but Obama in my opinion is a good role model for kids. ::ducks::
