Holy wow. Lay the Jesus complex on thick, much? I'm never going to hear the portmanteau "Obamessiah" quite the same way after that.

Spoiler:
Jesus calls the children dear,
“Come to me and never fear,
For I love the little children of the world;
I will take you by the hand,
Lead you to the better land,
For I love the little children of the world.”

REFRAIN:
Jesus loves the little children,
All the children of the world.
Red and yellow, black and white,
All are precious in His sight,
Jesus loves the little children of the world.

Jesus is the Shepherd true,
And He’ll always stand by you,
For He loves the little children of the world;
He’s a Savior great and strong,
And He’ll shield you from the wrong,
For He loves the little children of the world.

(REFRAIN)

I am coming, Lord, to Thee,
And Your soldier I will be,
For You love the little children of the world;
And Your cross I’ll always bear,
And for You I’ll do and dare,
For You love the little children of the world.

(REFRAIN)

The first part is the kids chanting (not singing, chanting):

Quote:
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said that all must lend a hand [?]
To make this country strong again
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said we must be clear today
Equal work means equal pay
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said that we must take a stand
To make sure everyone gets a chance
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama
He said Red, Yellow, Black or White
All are equal in his sight
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama
Yes
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Barack Hussein Obama


And the second part is the kids actually singing this to the tune of "The Battle Hymn of The Republic" (fitting...)

Quote:
Hello, Mr. President we honor you today!
For all your great accomplishments, we all [do? doth??] say "hooray!"
Hooray Mr. President! You're number one!
The first Black American to lead this great na-TION!
Hooray, Mr. President something-something-some
A-something-something-something-some economy is number one again!
Hooray Mr. President, we're really proud of you!
And the same for all Americans [in?] the great Red White and Blue!
So something Mr. President we all just something-some,
So here's a hearty hip-hooray a-something-something-some!
Hip, hip hooray! (3x)

Quote:
The superintendent of a New Jersey school where students were videotaped being taught to sing the praises of President Obama issued a statement Thursday saying the taping was unauthorized, but failed to address whether the the lesson -- taught durnig Black History Month -- was approved.

A YouTube video shows nearly 20 young children being led in a song overflowing with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack Hussein Obama," repeatedly chanting the president's name and celebrating his accomplishments, including his "great plans" to "make this country's economy No. 1 again."

Students at B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, N.J., were "singing a song about President Obama" in February "to honor the contributions of African Americans to our country," said Burlington Township Superintendent Christopher M. Manno. "The recording and distribution of the class activity were unauthorized."

One song quotes directly from the spiritual "Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's: "He said red, yellow, black or white/All are equal in his sight. Barack Hussein Obama."

Click here to see the video.

Another lyric touts a fair-pay bill Obama signed in January: "He said we must be clear today/Equal work means equal pay."

The author of the songs is unknown, but a woman -- possibly a teacher -- can be heard in the beginning of the video correcting and helping a student who has forgotten the words. Another woman, the person holding the camera, cheers the students on: "All right," she says. "I like that."

Click here to see the full lyrics to both songs.

"Alteredbeat," the YouTube user who posted the video on the Internet told FOXNews.com that the video was first put online by Charisse Carney-Nunes, an activist and author of the children's book "I Am Barack Obama," which her website says "allows children to see themselves through the inspirational story of President Obama." Carney-Nunes has been promoting the book during visits to schools on the east coast.

A poster for the book can been seen near the stage of the auditorium in the video of Bernice Young Elementary, but it is unclear whether Carney-Nunes had visited the school or was present during the filming.

"Alteredbeat" originally posted the video Sept. 6, two days before Obama made an address to the nation's schoolchildren in which he praised the American education system as the best in the world and urged students to stay in school.

"At the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, and the best schools in the world," Obama said.


My child would be out of that school and I would be having angry words with the school. Yeah liberal indoctrination factories.

I hope that the teacher is fired. Then rehired, and then fired again.

There are essential responses when exposed, one of which is to counter claim.

Same play book as ACORN.

Yes. Secretly brainwashing children is okay, it's getting caught doing it that's the embarrassing part. This is Big Brother 101.

King has long been a fan of Obama, hanging pictures of the president in her school's hallways and touting her trip to his inauguration in the school yearbook.

Included in the full-page yearbook spread were Obama campaign slogans ("Yes we can! Yes we did!") and photos King took in Washington on Jan. 20, when she attended the inauguration.

There also were photos taken at the school depicting students doing Obama-themed activities about their "hopes for the future," featuring posters of Obama. According to the yearbook, students watched the inauguration in class.

I don't really have a problem with students watching the inauguration, as it was a historic event.

However, the rest of that article is disturbing.

On the surface, it would appear that as a recipient of federal funds, there could be some serious repercussions if anyone had a notion to press the issue of federal funds, schools and political campaigning.

This is not that far removed from the "scandal" with the NEA and their grant funding conference call recently.

I don't really have a problem with posters and projects related to President Obama. I would just expect the same from that teacher no matter who the President is.

Obviously the singing is inappropriate and I would find it highly inappropriate if the teacher was posting campaign signs before he was inaugurated or at the very least after he was declared the winner of the election.

Are the questions marks because you don't agree with my assessment, or because you aren't familiar with the events I referenced?

The latter. When have you ever known me to disagree so coyly? ;)
