The next you hear will be all the little children attending diversity indoctrination by court ordered Osama Hussein's lackeys.

How was the chant “racially tinged”??? Inappropriate, yes. But racially tinged? Freaking unbelievable.

[PeterFinn]

But having school kids burn Bush in effigy is a-okay.

[yoe]

“racially-tinged chant”??????? How about just plain stupid. What has race got to do with such a dumb chant? Take a stance folks against this sort of bias/propaganda....racism? No, bad manners as well as silly? Yes.

MY son just got a call from a friend at the UW (worst football team in the history of the sport) that there were lots of anti Obama stuff going on on campus.

[mvpel]

I would hope that my son, when in third grade, isn’t so bloodthirsty that he talks about assassinating politicians.

[DTogo]

A movie can be made and shown in theaters about the assassination of Bush, a sitting president, that's OK.

But thou shall not disparage THE ONE.

[DBrow]

Why is the mayor apologizing? He didn't chant anything.

And what's this "racism" claim- race was not involved.

[libs_kma]

Rule # 1. Never tell a liberal you're sorry.

If you failed at rule number #1, it's too late. Just open your checkbook, bend over and try to think of a happy place.

Didn't Je$$e Jack$on and RevAl teach these people anything the last few decades?

[facedown]

...second- and third-grade students chanted "Assassinate Obama"...

I don't believe for one second that 2nd and 3rd graders know the word assassinate. Something is fishy with this story.

[SJSAMPLE]

A mayor apologizing over the actions of private citizens, especially children?

What a pansy.

[TankerKC]

The children's racially-tinged chant on a school bus came as a wave of disenchantment over the presidential election results produced several inflammatory responses in Idaho, where voters overwhelmingly favored Republican John McCain.

Stupid? Yes. Racially-tinged? Not so much.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

There are seven grade schools and a couple each high schools and junior high schools. Just one child chanting is one too many -- but the accounts are suggesting that all the children on the bus were chanting. Until it's proved otherwise I don't believe that all the kids on that one bus were chanting. The deliberate distortion is just as insulting to the other children as the chant itself.

Now all the kids in the district will be sent to "re-education" and "sensitivity" training?

I-want-to-make-a-difference MSM employees are skid marks on journalism's clean shorts.

[Adder]

That’s not appropriate, that’s wrong, and those are hateful remark

Oh bs...

[marron]

Kids say and do inappropriate things all the time. Mayors don’t apologize for it, thats silliness.

There has been a nonstop torrent of Bush-hate for the last 8 years, and no one has apologized for it, and no one ever will. What some third grade kids in Idaho said isn’t newsworthy by any stretch of the imagination.

So the kids need a good lecturing, that this isn’t acceptable. It deserves as much seriousness as it would have if they were chanting about Bush a year ago. Which means, I doubt any teachers would have taken it very seriously. They’re kids. You tell them to knock it off or else, and thats the end of it. You don’t call in the national press, and you don’t sent your mayor to crawl on his belly in shame.

Just for a hint how old I am, I can remember some kids saying stupid things when JFK was killed. The other kids shut them up quick, but if they hadn’t the teachers would have.

But I promise you the mayor would not have apologized on behalf of the town. Thats stupid.

[Lancey Howard]

LMAO!!!
