From Malkin interesting history of Obama and school interaction. http://michellemalkin.com/2009/09/02/i-pledge-to-be-of-service-to-barack-obama/

A school principal has apologized for showing a video at an assembly that a politically conservative group leader is calling “radical, leftist propaganda.”

Children at Eagle Bay Elementary School in Farmington were shown a short video called “I pledge” on Aug. 28. The video opens with an image of President Barack Obama and part of a speech in which he says, “Let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.” The video then features celebrities making pledges about how they will help the president and the world — and that’s where some say the problem lies…

… Gayle Ruzicka, president of conservative Utah Eagle Forum, said the video was blatantly political. She said other offensive pledges included, “I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama,” “I pledge allegiance to the funk, to the united funk of funkadelica,” and pledges to not use plastic grocery bags and not flush the toilet after urinating.

Man, oh, Man. This is a freak show.

Do you have any idea how many apathetic Americans will not see any issue with this type of talk?

Well, folks Our Founders gave us all we need to squelch this crap. Will I stand up against it will you, will we?
