Well, there’s the notion that Barry Hussein is worrying that Kindergartners and 1st graders are going to decide, “What the hell? Welfare for everyone!” and drop out of school. After all, given the tenants of liberalism, why the hell bother to work? And if you’re not going to bother to work, why the hell bother to go to school?
Then there’s the realization that it never WAS about what Obama said in his speech, but in what his Education Department “lesson plan” first attempted to do: ask, “How can we help Obama?”
There are going to be a lot of teachers in a lot of classrooms who are going to be pumping liberalism and pumping Obamaism into the minds of young children. Obama’s speech was going to get national scrutiny, but his Marxist teachers will fly right under the radar and cast the Obama speech in the quintessential liberal/propagandist light.
"And this isnt just important for your own life and your own future. What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country. What youre learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future."
"Youll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment. Youll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free. Youll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.
The story of America isnt about people who quit when things got tough. Its about people who kept going, who tried harder, who loved their country too much to do anything less than their best.
"So today, I want to ask you, whats your contribution going to be? What problems are you going to solve? What discoveries will you make? What will a president who comes here in twenty or fifty or one hundred years say about what all of you did for this country?
We need every single one of you to develop your talents, skills and intellect so you can help solve our most difficult problems. If you dont do that if you quit on school youre not just quitting on yourself, youre quitting on your country.
"I must say that the tasks of the youth in general, and of the Young Communist Leagues and all other organisations in particular, might be summed up in a single word: learn.
Lenin, The Tasks of the Youth Leagues (1920)
I was thinking how cool it is that a kindergardener should be aspiring to cure AIDS someday!! /sarc
Easing the way for homosexuality, transgendering, etc. in the schools to become the ‘norm’ and those ‘nasty intolerant Christian people’ being set up for persecution, mark my words.
