Nope, do you want to share it with us?

I would not object to my kids seeing it. I would want to be there, though, to see what he is saying and be able to help my kids with anything I objected to. My kids go to a private school and it has already been announced the elementary school will not be viewing it.

What would you object to? Going to school to get a good education?
Would you explain to them why you object or just tell them that Obama is evil and damaging our country beyond repair and they should think that way too.

I remember my dad clearly explaining to me why he felt the way he did about political issues. If he disagreed with something he'd explain what the the issue was, what the current path that he object to was and why he objected to it. It clearly helped me form some critical thinking skills and trying to understand the other side even if I didn't agree with it.
