And the absolutely hysterical thing is that this has NOTHING to do with Obama. It has to do with a stupid teacher and administration at the school in question. Talk about manufactured outrage. You don't talk about the point of the criticism, you talk about how people don't like Obama. Please tell me where I criticized Obama in any post about that song at that school.

I have not even bgeun to criticize Obama.

Kids are allowed to opt out of the pledge.

Yes. My kids go to private school, but isn't that kind of like me suggesting to you that you don't live in poverty so why are you concerned about those that do?
Oh, excuse me- my bad. I sincerely thought all this outrage had to do with Obama's Master Plan to indoctrinate the children into the cult of liberalism. I read about how angry you are, wonder at the intensity of the anger, then after a few clicks on the comp I find out that Rush and Drudge and Hannity, blah, blah, blah, are just as darned mad as you, and in fact much of what they are saying matches up with your statements. Maybe I'm not as angry because I don't listen to that crap- I'm a bit irritated by the poor choices a school made, but it largely because it gave fodder to the agitators who want so desperatly to make Obama out to be evil personified. Again, with all the truly horrible things happening in our country (and the world), why waste so much time on this? It shows me that there is little else to fixate on as far as tabloid mud slinging, which assures me (thus far) that we have a pretty damned decent man in office. I'm glad you care about the public schools, but I guess I just didn't realize how very much you do.
