Obama’s speech was political

For those who think President Obama’s speech to classroom students is not politically motivated, I would like to sell you my interest in the Mississippi River.
A speech by another president in another era might not have the same political overtones.
Our children are already being brainwashed by socialistic liberals through television programs, most news media, and even the movies you pay to watch. The ideas and lifestyles that these mediums promote are not necessarily shared by most older conservative Americans, especially those who work and pay taxes!
Is it OK to have a liberal Democrat president to speak to school children but not OK to have prayer or any display of Christianity in schools? I say we should separate politics from schools. Where are you on this one ACLU?
If I had young children in school, they would neither watch the speech nor go to school that day. I would also read and monitor the books and other school material to see what is being taught. Everything that is in print is not necessarily the truth. In my lifetime, I have already witnessed history being re-written. I even question the validity of some of our past history. Tolerance should be taught but everything should not be tolerated.
Middle conservative Americans, stand up to the bullies! If these liberals take over the schools and the minds of our children, what will they take away from us next? The ball is rolling, we may not be able to stop it but we can certainly slow it down. I am not willing to give up our country just yet!
The D.A.R.E. program teaches children to say “No” to drugs. We parents can say “No” to this Democratic arrogant royal emperor.
