"dear leader"-ish? It's nothing more than a hyped up PSA and you're saying it's "dear leader"-ish?

Yeah... you haven't drank the anti-Obama kool aid at all.

Is there a single conservative on this board that isn't a damn robot?

As long as this is just a talk stressing the importance of education then I don't see what the big deal is. It's not like Obama would be the first president to tell kids that school is important.

Once you reach sexual maturity and are able to procreate we can have this discussion again.

You're right. I think it's healthy that kids grow up listening to Sean Hannity and Rush Limabugh to get their news. The knowledge that liberals hate america and want to kill old people is a positive message and should allow the kids to grow up and form their own opinion on liberalism and democrats. I think it's smart to stunt your child's growth by telling them how to think. Very, very healthy if you ask me..!

This is fucking ridiculous. The sitting President of the United States wants to address the nation's children on the importance of getting a good education and parental-units see this as a threat? The little memo that the DOE prepared are not required activities....simply suggested talking points to help engage the young minds of the intended audience. Keeping your kids out of school so they don't have to be "subjected" to crazy hypno-lord Obama?
How about this. Consider the point that by telling your kids that they can stay home from school is basically telling them, "Hey, if you don't agree with what an authority figure has to say, you don't have to listen."

I'm about as conservative as they come...but this is sheer lunacy....the living embodiment of zero-tolerance...the epitome of the old saw "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." Some of these "parents" need some new tools.
My son will be watching the address. He'll think about what is said, and if his teachers are worth 1/3 of the salaries they draw, they'll use what they think is appropriate from the DOE suggestions and shit-can the rest.

So... what in Obama's past speaches doesn't lend one to believe he won't address other agendas listed on his plate?

That's what I disapprove of him doing if he does such a thing. I DON'T have a problem if he only discusses "education" and it's importance. But all too often Obama uses a platform in order to "indoctrinate" his views on other issues as well. Knowing full well he'll have the attention of a nationwide public forum.

I only go by his past to question his intentions. If I choose to not trust that his speach will only be about education...then I find it in my right as a parent to not have my child present to being FORCED to here anything different.

In today's media world and technology...if after viewing his speach find it only to be what he claims will be discussed...then my child will be allowed to see the speach.

But if there is one hint of trying to use the platform of that speach to propose "indoctrination" to anything other than the benefits of education...It is MY RIGHT as a parent to allow or not allow my child to subject content.

Argue all you want. Condem all you want. It's still my right. And this isn't a democrat or republican issue...it's my issue as a free American. Something many of you only understand if it falls within the confines of the hypocrosy associated with following your party's agenda with blinders on.

No arguement here about it being your right to decide what's best for your child, but me thinks you're still overreacting here. It's a speech about education. He's not going to tell your kid that he/she needs to go home and tell mommy and daddy that they need to support healthcare reform.

Most kids are gonna be too busy sleeping, passing notes, or skipping class to pay attention to Fuhrer Obama's Final Solution.

Seriously, what kid isn't gonna be bored out of his mind about 3 minutes in?

Sure, it's your right to carry a hammer. Before you know it, your kid will be FORCED to learn math.:rolleyes
How about this? You let your kid, who apparently is incapable of forming his/her own opinions, watch what the President has to say. Then you spend some time talking to him/her/it about what was said and how you feel about it.
Jesus, you accuse others of following agendas whilst wearing blinders?:lol:lol:lol

I've seen parents pull their kids from school FOR ONLY ONE DAY for far less reasons. Trust me...I've been sending children to school for over 24 years and have several more years of doing so left.

And I do allow my children to freely choose their decisions. I'm just not a proponent of having government using a public forum telling my children what they should or should not think. Again...if the speach is only about the importance of education...my child will see that speach at a later time.

Tell you what...let Obama do what he promised to do when running for election...post on the internet any bill or speach he may be proposing or making 24 hours prior to the act so we as Americans can decide for ourselves.

Apparently, President Obama has made speeches in the past concerning healthcare! There's no telling what will come out of his mouth!

There's a differance in allowing teachers to teach what they are paid to teach and having a government official address our children by means of public education in what they feel is needed according to their own political agenda.

I would be opposed to this if this was a republican or democrat president.

As if the curriculum is free from politics.:lol:lol:lol

You are aware that Government officials address our children all the time, right? You'll see PSA's from Governor JFK-Hair, local politicians, and even Congressmen run in our school A/V material as well as excerpts in textbooks.
Mayors and Senators speak at schools, regularly.

I guess only certain government officials should be excluded, right?
Nah...that's not blind party adherence.:downspin:

I wasn't aware that GGA was advocating replacing parents. Straw-man much?

what is the most important thing we've learned in this thread?

spurnation is afraid of his own manufactured fear.

micca is interested in mr. afro's sexual maturity.

What a great cause!!
