Spoken by the most divisive person in US history. Next it will be homeschooling.

From wiki this little gem about Barry.

From ages six to ten, Obama attended local Indonesian-language schools: St. Francis of Assisi Catholic School for two years and Besuki Public School for one and a half years, supplemented by English-language Calvert School homeschooling by his mother.

RE: Next it will be homeschooling.

Actually homeschooling is being attacked NOW even as we speak.

A German family who applied for asylum successfully initially, in order to escape their country’s secular educational system ( which PROHIBITS homeschooling ) is being targetted for DEPORTATION by the Justice Department.

This family who lives in Tennessee ARE SELF-SUFFICIENT, and DO NOT RECEIVE ANY FORM OF GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE. All they want is to be able to LIVE FREE to home school their children.

Yet, Obama’s DOJ wants to deport them back to Germany.

Ok, so basically he’s saying that Catholics stay all cloistered in their schools and don’t integrate with others.

Historically, that has been true in Northern Ireland - Catholics/republicans and Protestants/loyalists have been deeply, deeply segregated (in schools, neighborhoods, etc.), and have both "stay[ed] all cloistered in their schools" without integrating with others.

Obama has no business sticking his nose into this issue, but a lot of people who are commenting on this story seem to be looking at it from an American perspective, and don't realize the context and role of schools and other institutions in Northern Ireland.

The only ones that encourage “division” are the Muslim schools.

Catholics from Catholic schools were a mainstay of the US armed forces for generations, and were certainly not into separatism. There’s only one group that does that.

A true story with about a dozen witnesses was told to me this past week at a funeral. A class trip was taken to the White House a year ago and Obama was meeting with kids 11 and 12 years old. Apparently with teachers and parents out of the room...Obama was doing nothing but faith bashing and literally telling the kids that following an organized religion or faith is going to vanish in this country and that he needed their help in changing the future and the landscape forever without religion involved at all in this nation.

Let me tell you...the people who shared this story with me are teachers at a Blue Ribbon Catholic school...known them my entire life...had no reason to tell this story to me out of the blue other than the fact that we hadn’t physically seen each other in quite some time and the topic had switched to politics.

Obama is a lunatic who walks in the steps of Marx, Mao, and Hitler. THAT IS A FACT.

Typical. Just like he went after the Church with the HHS mandate.

Marxists always understand that their only real global enemy is the Catholic Church. The Church is the only institution that can refute and resist their anti-gospel. So Marxists always go after the Catholics.

Unless Obama is visiting a Muslim country he continually finds some cause to criticize the existing standards wherever he goes. He is never a "uniter" - he is always negative and trying to divide people. Not only the United States, but the world is getting pretty sick of him.

He's applying a variant of Cloward-Piven - this time directed at religious education. The objective is to eliminate the "division" supposedly "encouraged" by religious schools by replacing their curricula with the national "Common Core" standards promulgated and financed by the Gates Foundation and other leftist groups and Obama supporters. Some Catholic dioceses have already begun adopting these standards. If he has his way,those wanting to escape the public schools' sex and socialism curriculum will no longer be able to find refuge in Catholic schools

Because democrats do what republicans haven’t got the guts to do.

Infiltrate and take over a government, an agency, a committee, a school, a church.

He attended a religious school. Maybe that's where he learned how to be so divisive...

He attended a Christian school that required Muslim-born kids to take lessons on Islam.
