Elementary School Students Taught to Sing Praises of President Obama
Fox News ^ | Thursday, September 24, 2009

Posted on 09/24/2009 12:30:54 PM PDT by indcons

Nearly 20 young children are captured in an online video as they sing songs that overflow with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack Hussein Obama," as they repeatedly chant the president's name and celebrate his accomplishments.

The superintendent of a New Jersey school where students were videotaped being taught to sing the praises of President Obama issued a statement Thursday saying the taping was unauthorized, but failed to address whether the the lesson -- taught durnig Black History Month -- was approved.

A YouTube video shows nearly 20 young children being led in a song overflowing with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack Hussein Obama," repeatedly chanting the president's name and celebrating his accomplishments, including his "great plans" to "make this country's economy No. 1 again."

From the source (FNC): “School officials said Thursday the students were ‘singing a song about President Obama’ in February ‘to honor the contributions of African Americans to our country.’”

‘to honor the contributions of African Americans to our country.’”

Somehow, I don't think Justice Thomas will be one of the "African-Americans" honored.

There’s something not jiving with these dates. I read somewhere else that this video was made (or maybe it was posted) in June.

This stands to be a big story.

One song that the children were taught quotes directly from the spiritual "Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's:

How inspiring.

First they show the kids this:

I Pledge

Then they have the kids do this:

More Obama Indoctrination going on in schools

And then there's the books they might read...

Sept 8th: Here are two of the books on Obama your kids are expected to read [get your children OUT!]

Obama Son of Promise

No, no cult of personality there, no agenda there at all. /s

The ChiComs, Soviets, Pol Pot and other maniacs also targeted children. Next on the Obama agenda - asking students to spy/report on their parents? After all, David Axelrod tried something similar just about a month ago.

Such propaganda is vile and is possibly driven by WH communiques.

...germany...italy...cambodia...russia...china...vietnam...

Anywhere where the kids can be cleaned up, dressed up, taught a song, and put in front of a camera to be cute little examples; to show the rest of the worlds idiots (that will buy this little propaganda effort) how wonderful their progressive civilization is...

This happening in N.J. doesn’t really surprise me...

If it starts in Texas...Then we may have something to worry about...But it won’t be for long...

If I’m not mistaken, I could have sworn this video was made quite a while back, and it is just now coming to the fore front of FauxNews???

I even believe it had been kicked around here on FR wayyyyyy back earlier in the year...

It’s on YouTube, if it hasn’t already been taken down by Obama’s YouTube office...

Can’t have this type of stuff getting too far out into the public eye just yet...Wait till after 2010...

You guys want to see propaganda, hehehe just wait...

Next to having a snazzy pair of pajamas, and surfing around here on FR, you’ll need a lined trashcan to hurl into...

Just make sure you drink lots of fluids...;-)

This is only the beginning...

BTTT - Obama’s cult of personality reminds one of the excesses in Mao’s China and Stalin’s Soviet Union.

Look on the bright side — it’s going to be very much harder for Obama and his minions to force students to do community service with this video going viral and the angry response from parents regarding his speech to school kids earlier this month.

Parents are getting wise, don’t like this interference at all, and are going to put bumper stickers on their cars — GET OUT OF MY KID’S SCHOOL!

He said red, yellow, black or white
All are equal in his sight
Mmm, mmm, mm!
Barack Hussein Obama

How sick is that? I'm surprised that 'his' isn't capitalized but it is from FOX News so they probably dropped the cap because they're racist. /s

I dedicate this song to the Obamabots!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTs5SoOteQQ
Bow down before the one you serve
You’re going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You’re going to get what you deserve

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I’d rather die than give you control

The last stanza of the first song is directly from the children’s hymn, “Jesus Loves the Little Children”

“Red, yellow, black, and white, we are equal in His ( Jesus’) sight. Jesus love the little children of the world.”

These teachers are teaching children to sing hymns to and worship Obama. Unbelievable!

In the second “hymn” to worship Obama, the kids are being taught to give him the NAZI salute!

Ok..folks....when are rational people going to close down all the government schools and give children a private, tution-free, conservative alternative?

Way I learned it was

"Red and yellow, black and white,
They are precious in His sight,
Jesus loves the little children of the world."

Note the subtle change! No longer precious, but merely equal.

the video was first put online by Charisse Carney-Nunes, an activist and author of the children's book "I Am Barack Obama,"

Carney-Nunes is a staff member of the Jamestown Project.

The Clinton's "child activist" friend Peter B. Edelman is on the board along with Cornell West and Charles J. Ogletree.

From the Jamestown Project website:

Children Do Democracy Too is an outgrowth of our Doing Democracy work. The purpose of the initiative is to equip children with the knowledge and tools necessary to meaningfully participate in civil society and democracy. The central question we seek to answer is, “How do we instill the values of citizenship and active participation into the youngest, and in many ways the most important, members of our democracy?”

The Jamestown Project released A Children's Curriculum for Civic Engagement in the Fall of 2008 as part of this initiative. The curriculum is based on our book I DREAM FOR YOU A WORLD: A COVENANT FOR OUR CHILDREN.

The Curriculum adapts the concepts from the book into lessons and activities to promote civic engagement to elementary aged children. Grades 3 – 5 are the optimal age for children to not only understand their place in the world, but also a time to begin to comprehend their power and potential to make a difference in their own lives, their family, their communities, and their country.

I think that is a deliberate attempt to conflate 0bama with the opening statement of the Declaration of Independence. They are hi-jacking God out of that too and substituting The Won.

You are very close to blasphemy:

Matthew 18:4-6

5”And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. 6But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

This is a throwback to cultish, tribal behavior. I would think teachers would have enough education to see through this blind, hero-worship crap.

The main reason slave owners didn't want the slaves to learn to read is that it would educate them and they might break the bonds of slavery. But now, we're teaching people to read, and be slaves to a "cult" at the same time.

What's next, plastic beads and tupperware?

It's all I can do to not post a picture of Fat Albert.

I actually feel sorry for those teenagers. Their hero is a politician. Can there be anything more pathetic or bound to disappoint than that?

My father inspired me to work hard in school. My mother inspired me to be patient and reserve my anger for times that mattered. My grandfathers, their friends, and the old guys at the shooting range inspired me to serve my country. My coaches inspired me to see lofty dreams as achievable goals. One central theme from all those people was the ethic of hard work. None of them promised me something for nothing, other than their counsel, love, and support.

The kids in this video say Obama is inspiring them, which might be true. What I suspect is that they are all going to wait for Obama miracles and be sadly disappointed.

That is not an ‘or’ that is the purpose of conflating a known and beloved theme with the new ideals 0bama and his communist cabal have in mind. In that one verse they introduced the new way of thinking overlaid on two old ones. A hymnal for Jesus and the “all men are Created equal” statement in the DoI. That makes 0bama (Marxism) a substitute for God and the Constitution. One stone for two birds.
