A witty yet chilling read....

Although I have not always been the most outspoken advocate of President-Elect Barack Obama, today I would like to congratulate him and add my voice to the millions of fellow citizens who are celebrating his historic and frightening election victory. I don't care whether you are a conservative or a liberal -- when you saw this inspiring young African-American rise to our nation's highest office I hope you felt the same sense of patriotic pride that I experienced, no matter how hard you were hyperventilating with deep existential dread.

Yes, I know there are probably other African-Americans much better qualified and prepared for the presidency. Much, much better qualified. Hundreds, easily, if not thousands, and without any troubling ties to radical lunatics and Chicago mobsters. Gary Coleman comes to mind. But let's not let that distract us from the fact that Mr. Obama's election represents a profound, positive milestone in our country's struggle to overcome its long legacy of racial divisions and bigotry. It reminds us of how far we've come, and it's something everyone in our nation should celebrate in whatever little time we now have left.

we will never get this man out of office if he is allowed access to our children like this.
he is already talking about needing a second term to accomplish every goal. we know he will be running. we know, given the news already coming out that he may not have time to fully invest in this... lets make sure, starting today that he dont get a second term.

...HE will not let us nor our Republic down.

Allow me to add to that, please. We, as a country, have to stop letting Him down. God doesn't bless sins.

Obama’s Revolutionary Positive Behavior for Effective Schools Act of 2007
In Section 8 Obama’s bill creates what’s called the “Office of Specialized Instructional Support Services” which shall “administer, coordinate, implement, and ensure adequate evaluation of the effectiveness of programs …” via a new “Director” who provides “continuous training and professional development opportunities for specialized instructional support personnel” comprised of “school counselors…social workers…psychologists, and others...” These “instructional support personnel” provide “assessment, diagnosis, counseling, educational, therapeutic, and other necessary corrective or supportive services…” for students.

If passed into law funding to implement Obama’s bill will be extracted–without restrictions from Title I funds currently budgeted in the President’s 2009 budget at US$14.3 billion according to the Office of Management and Budget. Obama’s bill “re-designates” funds to allow State educational agencies to “allocate funds to develop and implement coordinated, early intervening services (including school-wide positive behavior supports) for all students. http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/5402

I think conservatives need to...take back the schools.

You hit on a subject I brought up a few hours ago with my sister-in-law who's suffering serious Obamadepression.

Where's the common sense for conservative parents to shell out tuition to a university they know will fill their teens' minds with liberal garbage? We do have other choices.

As a wise uncle told me, "The word 'No' is a perfectly good word". (Thanks, Matt!)

The same common sense needs to be used when a school has the audacity to brainwash students into believing homosexuality is just as normal as heterosexuality. Get your kids out of there, ASAP! Then band together with other like-minded parents and fight the evil system. You just may save other kids.

Maybe you’re right...some didn’t “get” it. I don’t know how anyone could have missed it...it was quite obvious.

The woman who showed her true colors when she told the world "for the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country..." treated us to another gem.

"...Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual--uninvolved, uninformed..."

Who the h**l are you talking to, Michele? It had better not be me and my family and friends. We hardly need any advice from you, little girl.

So now we are going to have to take our kids to community service????

http://www. change. gov/americaserves/serves_section/

The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation’s challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.

amazing isnt it? control the children, control the future! i thought it weird that they wanted to start as early as infancy. scary stuff....
especially in light of this quote from a earlier thread:

“When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I say calmly, ‘Your child belongs to us already...What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing but this new community’.” —
the author of the quote, not obama, but adolph hitler
