Scrutiny rises over NJ kids singing Obama song

A school for kindergartners through second-graders in a comfortable Philadelphia suburb has become the latest target of accusations by conservatives that schoolchildren are being indoctrinated to idolize President Barack Obama.

The controversy grows out of a school assembly during Black History Month in February, when gripes about the freshly inaugurated president were still mostly hushed.

The notion that schoolchildren are being subjected to partisan politics rather than taught civics emerged earlier this month before an Obama speech to students was played in thousands of schools.

By then, unlike February, there was broader mistrust of Obama, particularly over his health insurance overhaul plans. Concerns that he would use his speech to students as a political tool grew partly because the White House initially released a lesson plan encouraging students to "help the president."

The plan was revised and the message to students was not overtly political.

There wasn't much protest, though. One man, Chris Concannon, from nearby Magnolia, was outside hoping to speak with school officials about what happened.

"It's just like the Hitler Youth all over again," said Concannon, an unemployed 26-year-old former National Guardsman. "They should be learning history, but instead they're being taught to worship the president."

Yeah, I also want to learn his-story, but he won't release any of his records. As for the kids, they're brainwashed into singing "Him, him, him..." - sounds like worship of the president to me.

BTW...someone is STILL lying...

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/09/24/elementary-school-students-reportedly-taught-songs-praising-president-obama/

“Alteredbeat” told FOXNews.com that he reached out to Carney-Nunes, who insisted that the program had been filmed in June as part of a Father’s Day tribute to President Obama. “The kids made up the songs on their own,” she wrote, according to the YouTube user.

Either the school is lying...or the film taker is lying...

I’m surpised no one has picked up on this ...

Do you remember Elian Gonzales? I'm sure the MSM has been instructed not to remind Americans about the abduction of a child by gunpoint in the middle of the night IN AMERICA, nor the subsquent picture of Elian in Castro's Young Pioneers, red handkerchiefs and all.

Hmm! Hmm! Hmm! Fidel Alejandro Castro!

“I can remember when class rooms were not allowed to even put a picture of GW on a wall.”

Gosh... that’s true. I remember that now. Some !@(*# “teacher” didn’t want to “politicize” the classroom by hanging up a picture of GWB.

Of course, Our Dear Leader is different.

Liberals are such incredible hypocrites... it’s amazing any of them can live with themselves.
