Colmes mocks speech conspiracy: Next, you'll "accuse them of implant chips in" kids so they go "Obama, Obama, Obama"

Media Matters: The Palin chronicles
The Friday Rush: A series of conflicts
Contrary to media hype, Sarah Palin is very unpopular
Uh... EVERYTHING?
Is it the Hair Bleach? I just don't know what to say about the hysteria I just saw!
Repubs have been running away from the abyss our students are falling into...and this is the response to the Administration daring to take a leading role in encouraging OUR YOUNG PEOPLE to a BETTER LIFE through EDUCATION!
GREAT, JUST GREAT!
Education is a liberal plot to deteriorate traditional values, and the myth that media can warp childrens' minds beyond their parents control, absolving them of accusations of negligence or poor parenting.
This from a man that is retired and lives off a gov't pension, social security and has VA healthcare for free.
The message these crazies peddle IS working and it's scary!
He's not trying to talk these kids into voting for the Obama girls in 2048 or a "Cash for Tricycles" program. He is trying to encourage kids to stay in school.
I think this document is what is getting the GOP's panties in a bunch. I think a lot of those against the speech are fingering this document and suggesting that this is the "indoctrination" part.
However, note the key word CAN in the document. "Teachers CAN ask students..." These are suggestions from the U.S. Department of Education regarding what the President is speaking about and the role of ALL U.S. elected officials from the federal to the local levels.
This isn't politics; this is social science. It is taught to students whether it is a Democratic, Republican, or Independent official.
Perhaps you can be the one to tell us why we should exhort our kids to slack off, fail, and drop out of school, and why that would be the best choice for them in order to achieve their goals in life.
BTW, when your posts have all those funny symbols in them, it usually means that this is a C&P. I haven't seen this e-mail yet, but it's nonsense.
He has to put up with Crowley on a regular basis. Sadly, she's his sister-in-law too.
No one blinked an eye when Bush visited a school to read to kids or Reason visiting a school.
I have no idea when this is going to stop. Every time Obama does something these nut jobs do their best to make people afraid of him for some reason. All they are running on is fear and hate. Its one thing to disagree with his policies but its completely another to get people so riled up that someone is going to do something stupid and kill the President. The guy will then say that Fox told him that Obama was going to kidnap his kid and put him into some Hitler youth group and teach him about socialism.
These people have no shame!
Do none of these people possess critical thinking skills? Or have they simply been bought out of them?
Imagine that, empowering our youth to learn. The President of the United States is addressing the children about learning. It is not about the color of his skin, but the fact that Republicans are not in charge. The radicals are the racist, O.K., some are in Congress. Any breath President Obama takes will be questioned. "Learn all you can," our president may say, and the right-wing calls for censorship. "An obscene and heinous gesture, that no child should witness," the plucked right-wing may retort.
Good things are coming, hide your love.
It be it,
Ronin Kannushi.
fox news seems to forget about bush talking to school kids, and Reagen talking to school kids,
do i think the message should be about healthcare or cap and trade, no
obama is going to talk about the importence of education and staying in school and maybe a little community service aka picking up trash...
The President is giving a pep talk to school kids and these people are up in arms about it? What's wrong with conveying a sense of unity and the American value of hard work to these children. Noooo...the evil villain, Barack Obama, is trying to brain wash your children. This is complete and utter idiocy.
The bottom line, short and simple, is that these people REFUSE to accept Barack Obama as the President of the USA. What's next...if they don't like the Constitution they will ignore that, too? Where does it stop...?
Well, that is a pretty accurate and succinct summary of the Bush administration's stance.
Watch that Fox News or CNN newscaster. Besides dressing and putting on make-up like a prostitute (which in a way she is) she just reeks of insincerity. She doesn't care if she's telling the truth or not. All she cares about is her career and being on TV.She and thousands like her contaminate the airways on your TV nightly. They don't care about the truth. They only care about their job, and carrying on the facade that they are important. They are the lowest of the low. These are fake plastic people living in a make-believe plastic world. To expect them to tell the truth is like expecting men to bear children, it's not going to happen!

God forbid, if something were to happen to Obama, all of these imbeciles will act like they don't know why anyone would want to hurt Obama.
When JFK died, LBJ--a man with years of experience in the Senate--became president. His mission in those early years (before everything went to hell) was the kind of sweeping legislative changes that only a true veteran of the Senate can manage.
Maybe Biden likes to taste his own foot from time to time, but he's also a highly experienced legislator and should anything happen to Obama, he's the next in line.
To all those morons secretly wishing bad things on Obama... careful what you wish for.
Second: The Obama administration "surreal" and "Orwellian"? These two ladies with the Death Panels and other conservative lies have already cornered the market in these areas.
Third: Studying history and current events, particularly our first Black President, should be be part of the curriculum.
Fourth: Yes, children shouted "Obama! Obama!" during the election. Many were African-American who were seeing what they could accomplish in America (if they did not cut classes for insane reasons). I suppose, Ms. Crowley, it is better that young children carry signs equating Obama to Hitler.
Fifth: Using a whole unit of a school day!? You know that Halloween parade every year (my kids did look cute though, I got pictures), that all afternoon Christmas party with the candy and cookies, and that great educational video "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", and some really strange field trips (I recall that at one time Burger King and McDonald's let schoolkids "tour" their kitchens. Now that is indoctrination!) is a great use of school time. Good Lord! The man is PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! If he wants to give pep talk to students on the first day of school, let him. It's not as if it is manadatory. Schools can choose not to show the speech if they choose.
There's more, but I can't watch this again.
Even sadder, the people that are eating up these retarded talking points.
