I'm no expert, but shouldn't these kids be in grief counseling and not on stage performing for millions of strangers?

Will they be lip syncing?

IF a proven performer can do it so as not to ‘embarrass’ herself, shouldn’t the children be given the same opportunity.

What will it do to their fragile hearts and minds if they should happen to ‘mess up’ and someone DARE laugh at them or give them a ‘pan’ for a review.

AND I AM NOT PICKING ON THE KIDS....here, I feel very comfortable using the term ‘innocent’ children, because IMNSHO they are being exploited.

I understand that the 15 yo in Chicago that ‘supposedly’ went to DC (some doubt has been raised) ANYWAY, a petition ‘supposedly’ has been started to get BO to go to the funeral.

He is either going to show up unannounced (with 100 body guards - ‘gang funeral you know’) and 400 TV crews or ignore it BECAUSE IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO...however, that will NOT be his reason for not going....

Well at least they're not singing about bombs bursting and all that violence. /sarc

Actually I think that America The Beautiful would be a much better national anthem. It truly describes the country.

The NFL is going to put 26 already tramatized elementary school kids on stage to perform in front of a 60,000 person live audience and 100 million TV viewers.

Yeah. That’s a good idea.

And when they faint, vomit or wet their pants from stage fright, what is the plan to pick up the pieces for these poor kids?

Why do I suspect they will change the words:

Oh beautiful, for spacious skies
if only there weren't guns
for purple mountain's majesty
beneath we buried sons

American, OBamica
you've got to save our kids...
You've got to save us from ourselves
All guns now must be rid.

How about if they got a chorus of 26 kids whose life or sanity was saved because daddy or mommy had a gun? With tens of thousands of such kids to pick from, I bet they could find at least 26 really good singers.

Exactly.

These "Sandy Hook survivors" sure as hell don't pass the sniff test for common sense. How many survivors from the shootings at Fort Hood, Columbine or Virginia Tech would be ready to put on a happy face and sing after what they went through just a month prior? My bet is that NONE of them would be willing to do something as absurd as this.

IMHO, the "Sandy Hook witnesses" and "grieving families" are all liars, fakers, phonies and frauds. NOTHING they say or do makes any sense in terms of human emotion and appropriate response. NOTHING.

The level of coordination exhibited in media about this issue is quite frightening.

I don’t know what the complaint would be about this. People have been complaining that they can’t get the residents of Newtown to sing to their satisfaction. Well Sunday some of the residents will be singing.

They were thinking about having the Waco Texas Branch Davidian’s Childrens choir sing but they were unavailable.

democrats spinning political hay over the dead bodies of children killed just over a month ago

these people are revolting

in the tit-for-tat category... any ‘moment of silence’ should be renamed to ‘America the beautiful sung by the 54m dead Americans aborted under liberal politicies’. (it might be a bit wordy)

My only experience with grief counseling is that it makes things worse, a lot of obsessing on the past while you’re trying to live the future. It is kind of tacky to drag them out to sing, but they get to watch the game from the green room, get a lot of autographs, and hopefully have some fun. Really the Super Bowl is a festival of tacky, why change now.
