Creepy: Children Sing Obama's Negative Messaging in New Ad
Townhall.com ^ | October 27, 2012 | Kate Hicks

I suppose we all thought the Obama reelection effort had jumped the shark when we had Lena Dunham telling us all about how great our "first time" (voting, that is) would be with Obama.

But no. This is worse. So, so much worse.

Courtesy of Allahpundit over at Hot Air, here's a creepy video of children singing about the alleged horrors of a Romney presidency:

The Future Children Project

A sampling of the lyrics:

Imagine an America

Where strip mines are fun and free

Where gays can be fixed

And sick people just die

And oil fills the sea

 

We don't have to pay for freeways!

Our schools are good enough

Give us endless wars

On foreign shores

And lots of Chinese stuff

Whoa.

It's not actually from the Obama campaign, but it's certainly using the same messaging that POTUS has been pushing. As AP points out, this is sort of reminiscent of videos like this or this, except that unlike those two (equally as creepy) clips, there's no "lending a hand" or "spreading happiness and freedom." We're blaming Mom and Dad for voting for Romney, and thereby killing Big Bird and a whole lot of polar bears.

Again. Whoa.

Yet it's indicative of the Obama 2012 message: vote for me because the other guy will literally murder people and animals. Only, from the mouths of babes, it's decidedly more icky. Heck, these children are too young to understand half of the stuff they're singing about. At least hope and change and peace and love were generic enough concepts that even a five-year-old can knowingly support. This is just disturbing.

Lyrics:
Imagine an America
Where strip mines are fun and free
Where gays can be fixed
And sick people just die
And oil fills the sea

We don’t have to pay for freeways!
Our schools are good enough
Give us endless wars
On foreign shores
And lots of Chinese stuff

We’re the children of the future
American through and through
But something happened to our country
And we’re kinda blaming you

We haven’t killed all the polar bears
But it’s not for lack of trying
Big Bird is sacked
The Earth is cracked
And the atmosphere is frying

Congress went home early
They did their best we know
You can’t cut spending
With elections pending
Unless it’s welfare dough

We’re the children of the future
American through and through
But something happened to our country
And we’re kinda blaming you

Find a park that is still open
And take a breath of poison air
They foreclosed your place
To build a weapon in space
But you can write off your au pair

It’s a little awkward to tell you
But you left us holding the bag
When we look around
The place is all dumbed down
And the long term’s kind of a drag

We’re the children of the future
American through and through
But something happened to our country
And yeah, we’re blaming you

You did your best
You failed the test

Mom and Dad
We’re blaming you!

This is exactly what Stalin, Mao, Castro, Hitler, and the various IslamoFascist dictators like, to indoctrinate children to do their campaigning for them

watch out America, if BHusseinO gets re-elected .... we ain’t see nothing yet!

(also the communists like to train the kids to spy on their parents and families and report on their doings to the local communist party cell masters for possible punishment ...)

Seems to me, about one third of those kids are missing.

If Rush did a parody with James Carville, Larry Flynt and Barney Frank, he wouldn’t even have to change the lyrics.

They all nodded happily and popped the candy into their mouths and chewed gloriously. Johnny was very proud as he chewed his candy, he decided that he liked his teacher very much. Because she told the truth. Because she was right about fear. Because she was right about God. He’d prayed many times for many things and never got them, and even the one time he did get the skates, he knew his dad had heard him and had put them under his bed for his birthday and pretended he hadn’t heard him. I ALWAYS WONDERED WHY HE DIDN’T LISTEN, AND ALL THE TIME HE WASN’T THERE, he thought.

Johnny sat back contentedly, resolved to work hard and listen and not to have wrong thoughts like Dad.

The teacher waited for them to finish their candy. This was what she had been trained for, and she knew that she would teach her children well and that they would grow up to be good citizens. She looked out of the window, at the sun over the land. It was a good
land, and vast. A land to breathe in. But she was warmed not by the sun but by the thought that throughout the school and throughout the land all children, all men and all women were being taught with the same faith, with variations of the same procedures. Each according to his age group. Each according to his need.
She glanced at her watch….

It was 9:23.

That is one ugly-ass group of kids.

I guess it's genetic.

“I guess it’s genetic.”

OK I guess they could blame their parents for that.

We’re going to have to do a lot moe than just get rid of Obama to save America. This cancer has been growing for decades and will continue if we think we can get rid of Obama and forget about it.

After all, we let Bill Ayers slither away in the early 70s and he’s a bigger problem today than he was then because he teaches those who teach the teachers.

I HATE it when so-called ‘adults’ exploit children to further their causes.. Isn’t this child abuse? These kids have no idea what they’re talking about. This is brainwashing. Where’s Social Services?

social services only cares when what happens crosses their own agenda. now we know what their agenda is, it is obvious why they don’t care.

Heck I’m in my fifties and I don’t have a clue. It’s off to Google.

an au pair is a self righteous word for babysitter or nanny.
