WASHINGTON, D.C. – As students begin their school year, President Barack Obama will deliver his second annual Back-to-School Speech at 1:00 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, September 14 at Julia R. Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School in Philadelphia, PA, a 2010 National Blue Ribbon School. The President’s Back-to-School Speech is an opportunity to speak directly to students across the country. Last year, President Obama encouraged students to study hard, stay in school, and take responsibility for their education.
“Every single one of you has something you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide,” President Obama <

Dragging the kids into an assembly to watch TV is awfully disruptive to the school day.
Wouldn’t it be better for school officials just to get the written version of the speech, review it to see if its worthwhile, and then just have the teachers read it to their students if they think its appropriate?
“The most famous depiction of the Winkies is in The Wizard of Oz (1939 film) where they appear as the regimental army of the Wicked Witch of the West, marching in formation and chanting “Oh We Um, Eoh Um”
From: Wikipedia
The Wicked _itch of the White House is the Leader of the ‘Free World’? Who knew? Or is he merely Chief Winkie?
Not a chance in hell will my children see this dickhead speak.I will take them to work that day.
Looks like they’ll just wear down the American public. Is there even enough time to alert parents all over the country to this farce.
I think it’s horrible that he uses his office to push his crap on children. Should be illegal but then nothing’s illegal with the current DOJ.
As we say here in Texas, “Isn’t that just precious!”
I dont know about you guys, but school started two weeks ago. Some places they are in week three.
Just making sure everyone that is gonna come, is there? Here’s some news for ya: Those that were going to drop out, are gone. Save your speech.
Uh, no. O talks to his teleprompter, not to students directly.
“Oh We Um, Eoh Um” = “Oh We Love, the Old One”

Better said, God has a purpose for everyone and it’s our responsibility to seek Him and He will reveal that purpose.
I thought they were on strike, marching and chanting “OEO” (Office of Economic Opportunity).
We teach him to think for himself. We already had the “conversation” with both the history and science teacher. I told them both, if they get political with my kid they will answer to me and my attorney. Told my kid this and he yelled at me.
“Dad, I could handle this on my own. I have the truth on my side.”
Not bad for a 10th grader.
