Boycott The One
By David Huntwork
As the entire civilized world now knows, President Barack Obama will be addressing the nation's school children on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009. As soon as this was announced, and the accompanying Department of Education lesson plan released, a storm of controversy arose and suddenly schools were being besieged by angry parents. Bombarded principals, administrators and superintendants all across the country were almost overnight in a mad scramble for cover.
I received this e-mail yesterday from the superintendent of the private school that my children attend. It did save me from having to make the decision as to whether or not take the proactive step of pulling my children out of school on Tuesday. I'm not sure I would have because I trust the Christian educators to whom I have entrusted my children's education to not be fawning, drooling idiots when discussing the mere mortal who is currently occupying the oval office.
This school address is the gruel that liberal teachers turn into propaganda and cheerleading (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMxOPvIohcM) or misty-eyed moments of awe. Don't tell me that this will not become a "hurrah for Barack Hussein Obama" pep rally in thousands of classrooms across the nation. I'm glad that people are raising a ruckus and I can't tell you how many people are beating the heck out of each other over this. I can't hardly find a conservative parent at the moment who is letting their child participate. It has become a four day weekend for thousands of children. I encourage everyone to turn it into a conservative, family day free from President Obama and his damaging agenda. It was the Left who created the idiotic, sickening hero worship that now so permeates anything and everything that Obama says or does and we'll see that repeated by vast numbers of reporters and teachers on Tuesday. How sad and embarrassing for everyone involved.
A six year old is too young to distinguish propaganda from information.
So how do liberals see Obama when he gives an address like this? Denver Post columnist Tina Griego gushed this way about him.
You may look at Obama on television and see a politician with whom you agree or disagree, but he is something else too. He is the son of an immigrant, abandoned by his father, raised by his mother. He is a black man who studied hard, who excelled in college and who, only 10 months ago, made history when he was elected leader of this country. The president hopes to inspire all children in this country to go to class, to do their homework, to believe that if they do the work, education will open doors to worlds they cannot even imagine. But he chose to deliver that message from a school that brims with promise for a reason. He chose a school full of brown and black children from struggling families because they are the children he once was, and he is the success they could one day become. If they work hard. If they believe in themselves. If people believe in them. If that's indoctrination, then I only have one thing left to say: Preach it, Mr. President. Preach it.
When you are done dry-heaving please continue reading.
Conservatives, on the other hand, tend to be a bit less star struck by the latest success story of the corrupt Chicago political machine. If you can judge a man by his friends, President Obama fails miserably. He has surrounded himself all his life with mentors, friends and spiritual advisors which run the gauntlet of race-baiters and radicals, terrorists and Marxists. He is the most Left wing radical to ever occupy the white house who seeks to impose environmentalist extremism, mandatory-volunteerism and government-rationed health care on all those he seeks to bless with his oratory on Tuesday.
Conservatives are not fooled by the reassurances of partisans that President Obama exercises no agenda as he lurches from one bumbling political event to the next. I have strongly urged conservatives to wage an unceasing conservative guerilla war against the Obamanization of the country (http://davidhuntwork.tripod.com/id80.html) and I couldn't be prouder of each and every person who is angrily denouncing the showing of the President's speech on Tuesday to a captive audience and the idiotic Department of Education gobbly-gook lesson plan that accompanied it.

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s):
I received the below request from the U.S. Department of Education yesterday.
A MESSAGE FROM THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
President Barack Obama to Make Historic Speech to Americas Students C-SPAN and White House Web Site to Broadcast Speech Live Speech Scheduled One Hour Earlier to Noon Eastern Time On September 8, 2009, history will be made. Will you be a part of it? At 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time (ET), President Barack Obama will deliver a national address to the students of America. During this special address, the president will speak directly to the nation's children and youth about persisting and succeeding in school. The president will challenge students to work hard, set educational goals, and take responsibility for their learning. The U.S. Department of Education encourages students of all ages, teachers, and administrators to participate in this historic moment by watching the president deliver the address, which will be broadcast live on the White House Web site (http://www.whitehouse.gov/live/) and on C-SPAN at 12:00 p.m., ET.
RCS highly respects the position of the President of the United States and believes whatever he says always has impact and historical significance. With that said, we do not feel it is our place to show this address to the children at RCS. We strongly believe this should be a decision for each family!
Thank you for your continued support of RCS.
