Parent Blows Whistle on Teacher Promotion of Obama Internship
The parent of a Perry High School student in Massillon, Ohio, set off a firestorm in his community and in the blogosphere when he gave Pamela Geller, of AtlasShrugs.com, a copy of an internship application provided to his 11th-grade daughter's government class the last week of January. The information packet, emblazoned with the Obama presidential campaign logo, was from DNC-funded Organizing for America (OFA), the successor organization of Obama for America. The student's father, identified as "Chuck," told Geller that the teacher offered no Republican Party internship equivalent to students.
The document, posted in its entirety on Geller's website, promotes a ten-week internship for "empowering students across the country to help us bring about our agenda of change," and for which students may receive course credit. Interns must commit to at least 12 hours a week, and will be taught how to be "leaders in OFA's organizing work this summer," i.e., campaign workers for the 2010 election season.
Sounds like something we should be infiltrating!

It’s about time....
Translation: We’re going to do our best to radicalize your kid.
I’ll answer your question with a question.
What if they handed out an application for an internship at Klansmen R Us — with no other choice?
Would you still not get it?
Awwwwwww, I wanted to play a little first.
I’ve been watching my cat chase her tail while perched on the arm of an office chair...and it just kinda put me in the mood to bat a troll around a bit.
Well, yeah, as long as it's a government THEY agree with. If not, then it's "question authority", "speak truth to power", "Bushitler", "the police acted stupidly", "SCOTUS screwed up" (while they're sitting right there and have to keep their mouths shut), etc, etc, etc, etc....

You’re always kind of lost, you liberal dipsh*t
Schools are publicly funded with money taken from people of all political stripes. They’re not supposed to take sides on controversial political issues. That’s why the father wouldn’t have been offended with this had there been an alternative for conservative kids. This way it looks like recruitment for radicals, which is what it is.
And the teacher STILL doesn’t see the problem no doubt.
Nor do fellow teachers.
Whoever is responsible for the Obama “Plant” ZOT, God bless you!
Actually, I was thinking all the conservatives should send their kids. They’d find out what liberals are really like with the mask off, and they would probably find opportunities this summer to throw a wrench in undetectable ways into whatever the libs were working on. Shoot, stay in the organization, work your way up, wreaking havoc the whole time.

Your idea has real merit.

They see it as they got caught pimping for Obama. They must be pissed!
Doesn't look like you will be getting your Presidental Knee Pads after all...
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
