Example of actual letter send and agreed to by local Principal Parents, We have mailed the individual CSAP scores to your homes. Please look for their arrival within the next few days. On September 8, 2009, President Obama will be addressing the children on TV. Some of you have called our office asking if we will be showing the presentation and you have asked that your child not be in the room if we do show the presentation. Only a few classrooms at AWE will be offering the children an opportunity to view the President's speech. If a child chooses not to watch the speech, the child will be sent to our media center to engage in an individual literacy activity directed by the teacher. You will be informed this week by your child's teacher if they will have the option of watching the presentation. After the viewing, there will be no discussion held in the classroom. The follow - up conversation may happen at home with parents. Thanks for your continued involvement, Staci McCormack, Principal

America has OFFICIALLY landed at the intersection of...

ARE you a RACIST?
ARE you a COMRADE?

Meaning if you hold your child back on Tuesday and skip school, or you do not allow the child to enter the auditorium to be brainwashed...

The media will say...

The child is in a RACIST family.

If that child’s teacher is black, you do think your child will have a chance at having a happy and productive school year?

WE ARE “OFFICIALLY AT THE CROSSROADS of “picking a side while using the children”

It’s amazing how quickly Americans rose up to this latest ploy by OBOZO - speaks highly that our American spirit is alive and well!!!

My Sons are in Adams county.
I’ll either be in the classroom with them.
Or, we’ll take advantage of the great fishing weather here.

I emailed Limbaugh asking for him to do a counter-programming address to the youth of the nation. I hope his assistants catch my email.

Don’t the proles know they’re not supposed to opt out of one the Chairman’s speeches!!

[Alex Murphy]

Ping for later

[Candor7]

THese opt out parents need to see how the schools send a list of names and addresses of parents who opt out to the White House.

If so, a breach of privacy law suit needs to be launched against the school itself.

“If a child chooses not to watch the speech, the child will be sent to our media center to engage in an individual literacy activity directed by the teacher”

what does this mean? Do they actually have to do work versus a free ride of just sitting and watching obama?

Kids already face great peer pressure for a whole host of(TM Obama) things..this is just one more way to divide students.

[Boardwalk]

I’m in Massachusetts and a caller to a radio show here said that her kid was forced to watch a video from Michelle Obama yesterday in class. There was no notice to the parents prior to running it but apparently it was about community service.

Keep the pressure on these Commie bastards.

The teachers unions are also their allies and they'll go along with the Marxists unless you stop them.

Boycott everything union!!

Hey! Teacher!

Leave Them Kids Alone!

This was a well reasoned civil approach, compared to the bull dozer obama approach.

I think that Principal chose the right way to satisfy everyone and everyone has a chance to allow their child learning moments ( well as much learning as a hitler type speech from barry can be). It sounds like there will be a really good alternative to watching the Dear Leader spout.
THAT was my concern, that kids who didn’t want to be brainwashed would be singled out.

Good job

[Don Corleone]

If a child chooses not to watch the speech,

This is the PARENTS decision, not Obama's or the teachers!

[MayflowerMadam]

People...! It isn’t the speech by Dear Leader that’s the problem. It’s the follow-up “lesson plans”, push-poll questions, etc., the teachers have been provided with that will do a mind f**k on your kids.

[petitfour]

How is this video going to be piped into schools/classrooms? Presumably, it will be via the internet, so the White House will be able to tell which schools participate and how many classrooms/computers receive the feed. The amount of info gleaned from this experiment is scary. Also, attendance data is already required from each public school by the federal government. I’m not sure if they require data down to the individual student.

It’d be rather amusing for the computer system to crash during the speech. LOL

[Wonderama Mama]

Does anyone know if this will be going on in high schools? I have a 10th grader. Maybe I’ll keep him home that day just as a statement. I’m sure he will be cooperative. ;)

Remember how Zero didn't want the media to photographing or politicizing his children on his "vacation"?

and yet he has no problem doing the same to ours?

[MamaTexan]

My kid's school [Central Texas] have already announced they won't televise the speech due to the 'technical difficulties' of a live telecast, but they'll make it available online so parents can view it with their children if they want to.
