Okay folks, sorry for the vanity, but I need some advice here.
My children (daughter 9 son 7) go to a Parochial School, and this morning my daughter mentioned that they pray every morning for Obama. I asked her if they used to pray for W and she said, no, never.
Then I said, well, maybe its because hes just starting, to which she responded that theyve been praying for The One since November.
Now, of course, instinctively, I have a problem with this, because its naked partisanship, but whats the remedy? Asking that he not be prayed for anymore doesnt seem very Christian. Should I ask that Republicans be prayed for too? Maybe that makes me the partisan? Should I ask that something be tacked on about and that President Obama sees the wrongs of his ways and stops allowing people to kill babies.? This is a grade school, so Im not sure thats appropriate.
As it stands, Im a little ticked off here and want to get some rational thoughts and suggestions, so anything is much appreciated!
Isn’t what is happening, God’s plan unfolding?
Oh bull pucky. It's always an option. It's just a matter of whether you want to or not.
I was able to send my kids to a low-tuition Catholic school, but homeschooling would never have been possible. We needed two, sometimes three paychecks to survive. And that was in the days of one car, no cable tv, no cell phones, no luxuries of any kind to give up.
Cool - sounds great.
My kids will have a good education, in our little refrigerator box down by the river as we eat out of dumpsters.
Ask if you can play Reverend Wright’s sermons over the PA system.
We homeschool, but I know situations vary for folks in the ability to do this. One would think a Catholic school would not be wrought with the need to escape liberalsim a' la publik skool.
Ask questions, show up, take notes, get invloved. This likely will be explained easily or will take someone shedding light on it if it is pure O worship.
BTTT
The ONLT good thing about Plugs being VP is that it got him out of the senate and off the Hill.
ONLT = ONLY. Oooops.
Start with the children first....brainwashing!
Children shouldn’t be worshipping a false idol because this is what it is.
They have no business indoctrinating our children! We pay our taxes on time and its not the place to subjugate with Leftist BS!
They don’t allow children to pray in school so no Obama worship either. Was President Bush reverved? No!...and I wouldn’t expect it either because Bush isn’t Jesus.
Parents must stand up and politely tell the people to stop it or we will go to the school board demanding our tax dollars back!
We dont have big posters of Obama with his famous quotes adoring our building yet but we do have xerox copies posted all over our hallways at school about students behavior.
We have a picture Obama smiling with a quote from MTV...
brothers should pull up their pants. You are walking by your mother, your grandmother, your underwear is showing. Whats wrong with that? Come on. There are some issues that we face, that you dont have to pass a law, but that doesnt mean folks cant have some sense and some respect for other people and, you know, some people might not want to see your underwear Im one of them.
Im waiting for more quotes to adorn our hallways.
Maybe I will suggest to the teachers they need to get Obama’s Little Blue Book and find a new quote to post each week from their all wise leader.
I could be kidding but they will take me serious and buy the damned book.
This thing is so unreal! I cant believe we are being
Alinsky-ized.
Slowly but surely. Sad thing is children will believe what the teachers are telling them because they have the authority as teachers....and that’s not right!
But when I told a student to pull up his pants he got really angry and told me I had no business telling him to pull his pants. But I pointed to the poster saying Obama wants you to pull up your pants. He yelled out he voted for McCain and the kids in class had a good laugh.
If they put the poster up I will pester the kids to tears until they get sick of Obamas quotes. I’m the only conservative in the school so I’m going to play the Obamamite part to the hilt. Kids still prize their idenity and their individual rights.
You know kids will not sit through this....
