Eleven More Videos

Seems it is becoming somewhat of an epidemic now.

ELEMENTARY EPIDEMIC: 11 Uncovered Videos Show School Children Performing Praises to Obama

Quote:

Big Hollywood has already posted a couple disturbing videos of young school children singing/speaking praises to President Obama, but when eleven more dropped in our email box it came as quite a shock. What seemed like an aberration now appears to be a troubling pattern.

Maybe “epidemic” is a better word.

Each one of the videos below is creepier than the last because the further down you go, the younger the children — brace yourself for kindergartners – except for the last and most disturbing video, which you have to see to believe.

Young captive minds, easily influenced, eager for direction, enlisted into a cult of personality focused on an individual who, other than being the first black president, has yet to accomplish anything of significance.

But Obama’s skin color has nothing to do with this. Does anyone interested in retaining their merit badge for intellectual honesty really want to argue that Condi Rice or J.C. Watts would’ve spawned a dozen-and-counting tribute videos?

End Quote. Link: Big Hollywood Blog Archive ELEMENTARY EPIDEMIC: 11 Uncovered Videos Show School Children Performing Praises to Obama

All eleven videos are presented on the website, along with the lyrics. But here is one of them.



This makes a total of what, fifteen or more of these incidents? Does seem to be moving from a few moonbat productions toward general indoctrination.

I scrolled through most of the videos, and it became clear that all the videos involve minority students. I'm sure you can make a legitimate connection with that information alone. I know I can.

The alarmist intro, and the photo below were hilarious, though.



^ look. no minority students.

Your tax dollars at work indoctrinating young children.

Thank you NEA.

And children across the country are required to chant praises to a piece of cloth every day, and this is seen as a good thing.

That is to the flag and the United States of America. It promotes a sense of loyalty to the nation in which you live. These are pledges and praises to a man, and I am surprised that by now someone hasn't posted the video of children at a church camp offering blessings to the cardboard cutout of President Bush. That video seems to send certain people into a frenzy, but children singing prepared songs done to religious and patriotic tunes, praising and deifying President Obama? Apparently, not so much.

My problem with this is not the minority status of any of the children, or that Obama is the first black president, or the color of anyone's skin, or any of the other usual talking points used in an attempt to portray anyone who criticizes any aspect of the Obama administration as a racist.

My problem with this is that it is happening in schools, using school children, and being orchestrated by teachers. Schools in which the mere mention of God or the appearance of a Bible can send those same teachers and administration types into a righteous tizzy-fit.

Your analogy is off here. A sense of nationalism and displays of idolatry are not the same thing.
