I urged you not to send your kids to school on September 8th when I first heard of Obama's plans to address the students. I said that even if it is a relatively harmless speech about staying in school and studying hard.

Well, this has been the crust of the White House and liberal democRATs' counter agreement calling it a sign of a "silly season" to oppose a president's positive message to students.

Folks, the POTUS has the bully pulpit. He has been on TV almost everyday since he was inaugurated. He held many press conferences that were carried by the national media at prime time. Your kids wouldn't have missed him even if they were hiding under their beds. He can still give one of these press conferences and get a phony journalist to ask him about his views on education instead of a white cop arresting a black elitist professor. What is the point of asking schools to drop everything and get students to listen to his speech and provide lesson plans to discuss the speech?

Reason number one to oppose Obama's speech is the "Cult of Personality" all wanna be tyrants try to create at first. You see folks, this is the United States of America, a system of government founded upon the principle of checks and balances because we do not trust the people in positions of power. Obama and the leftists are trying to undo that. They have been trying to create this cult of personality who is able to solve problems persisted in centuries with mere speeches. They want us to believe that Obama is our saviour and we must trust him. They want Americans to trust the government. Since they have been failing to convince grown-ups, why not keep working on the next generation. Believe me, they have been indoctrinating your kids for years but now they need to get them committed to this cult leader! After all there are quite a few of these students who will be voting in 2012. I talked about the warning signs of Obama tyranny almost a year ago. Here is an interesting video that ties the video I posted on that post with a real tyranny from the past:

Think of this personality cult in terms of how all the leftists in this country treat tyrannies all over the world... Here is the latest example:

Oliver Stone, like many other leftist elitists in this country, has never met a tyrant he didn't like. While leftists like him in this country worship him, Tens of Thousands Protest Chávez in Venezuela.

Listen to this:

Carlos Garcia, a 41-year-old administrative worker who attended the pro-government march, said Venezuela's poorer sectors have achieved greater equality under Mr. Chávez. He dismissed the opposition's claims about the education law, saying it aims to make the system more inclusive, and defended the recent jailing of opposition demonstrators.

Believe it or not, there are Obamabots in this country who would like to see that we follow Chavez's lead and do the same kinds of things this Venezuelan government worker talking about.

Folks, tyrannies, regardles of what kind of "isms" they are, are all based on cult of personality. In America, the government is supposed to be for the people by the people not mindless people obeying the all-powerful leader.

Back in the sixties, one of the favorite mantras of the leftists was "QUESTION AUTHORITY". Now in the 21st century, we see that the leftists can't stand to have their authority questioned.

This was the number one reason to oppose keep your kids home.

Michelle Malkin has a great run-down of all the other reasons here:
I repeat: It’s not the speech, it’s the subtext

Make sure to click on the links she provides.

Look at the totality of the leftists' efforts to take over public education.

Remember how your local schools use the "historic" inauguration of our first black president?

How about this?

Have you noticed during the recent immigration protests, there were a lot of public high school students marching in the streets? You think your average 14-17 year old have any understanding of the issues involving immigration? They were all being herded to the streets by their activist teachers.

I wrote this when Hillary Clinton proposed public pre-schools for 4-year olds. Yep, they want to get control of our kids' minds when they are much younger.

Keep in mind that no tyrant wants a population that is educated. All a tyrant wants a population that is indoctrinated in tyrant's ideology, a population that is ready to obey and follow the tyrant.

Michelle provides links to information that shows how leftist education agenda is actually about lowering the educational standards to promote radical, leftists ideologies. So your kids may not know their three Rs, and can't spell simple words but they sure will be well versed in meaningless slogans like "social justice", "equality for all" and more.

Schools have used students as little lobbyists on everything from illegal immigration to gay marriage to anti-war activism.

And most recently: Census collection.

Will Obama be able to resist issuing a call to youth arms to marshal help in passing his legislative agenda?

Obama’s Sept. 8 speech to schoolchildren

Read the US Department of Education's Menu of Classroom Activities for the day the dear leader will address the students.

Keep in mind folks, this speech is to the students in grades PreK-12th.

Listen to these points:

Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor? Why is what they say important?

....

What is the President trying to tell me?
What is the President asking me to do?
What new ideas and actions is the President challenging me to think about?

Students can record important parts of the speech where the President is asking them to do something. Students might think about: What specific job is he asking me to do? Is he asking anything of anyone else? Teachers? Principals? Parents? The American people?

So the President of The United States starts his re-education campaign for the youth of the country. Next will be the government-run summer camps where your kids will be forced to "volunteer". After a couple sessions in these camps you won't recognize your kids. They will come back and demand that you live the way the dear leader wants you to live. Eventually, their loyalty to the dear leader will be much more important than their family ties.

Am I being too paranoid?

So you want to wait and hear what Obama will say?

First of all, the idea that the POTUS decides to address public school students for whatever reason and teachers being given this material is offensive. These kinds of things happen in third-world countries.

Second of all, I bet he will talk about his political agenda. This won't be a speech about "stay in school, study hard and be successful" kind of general speech. He is going to try to sell his agenda on nation's kids so they can go home and work on their parents. He has an all-volunteer army of public school teachers to help in his efforts of brainwashing our kids.

Do you want to wait and see?

Don't risk subjecting your kids to the propaganda. Don't send them to school on Sept 8th, 2009.

If it turns out to be a harmless speech, your children can still participate in the activities.

If I am right, and you hear Hussein trying to sell his radical leftist agenda to the kids, your children will be safe. Call your school and demand that they should stop the activities that follow. I am sure the teacher would not have let President George W Bush give a speech to elementary school children about war in Iraq and how it relates to war on terror. The teachers would not only be protesting the speech but they would come up with their own classroom activities countering the speech.

You can give Hussein the benefit of doubt but if he tries to turn preK-12th graders into activists for his political agenda, we should all be out protesting it, demanding that the activities be stopped and schools invite speakers to give speeches countering what Hussein preached.

Thanks to public school system's success of dumbing down Americans, most Americans do not understand where Barack Hussein Obama and liberal democRATs are taking this country. So-called republicans in the congress are useful idiots.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rYgKFWHzE0

So the Radical Socialist Barack Hussein Obama wants to tax a plumber and give the money to "less-fortunate" who in turn will be this plumber's customers. So the hard-working plumber who risked everything to start a business hoping to prosper and become independent, will be better of by giving more of his earnings to Obama's government folks! "Everyone will be better off" that's what radical socialist Obama is telling us. Unfortunately there are quite a few Americans who believe this idiocy thanks to the brain-washing by their teachers, professors, media and politicians.

If you really want to understand how socialism and communism work, listen to the following experiment at a High School:

I was an ordinary student with average grades attending Rising Red Star High School. In my classroom we had a few star students and a few trouble-makers but most of the students fell in the category of average just like me. Our academic work was graded pretty much the same as every other high school in the country.

Late January of last year, our newly assigned principal Mr. Oz brought about a change he called Academic Justice and Fairness in Grading. He held meetings with teachers, parents and students eloquently explaining that the students who are getting good grades under the current system do so because they have better educated parents, better homes, better living conditions that give them the advantage of being able to get more help and have a better home study environment. Average students do not have these kinds of unfair advantages. And the students with below-average grades were getting these grades due to no fault of their own. They were not blessed with all the things that make other students successful. He said the current grading system was inherently unfair and was causing unrest within the student body. His Academic Justice and Fairness in Grading Program, where the teachers allowed to adjust by taking some from above-average students' grades and giving those extra grades to below-average students, was adopted by the school board.

Initially, it really did not make much of a difference with me. I was still an average student. Well, there were more students like me now. Within the first week, there were a few of star students who left the school to attend other schools. Our principal and teachers condemned them and their families for being selfish and greedy and they told us we were better off without them. Truthfully, I was feeling much better since we were all getting pretty much the same grades. A few above-average students whose parents did not have the means to send them to a different school, gradually started to get lower grades. One or two exceptional students who were driven to get higher grades actually got despondent and turned into below-average students. All in all we all felt pretty good about ourselves.

When in March, statewide school test results announced, we were all shocked to learn that our school came in dead last. Our principal and teachers wasted no time protesting results and demanding that either our school should be evaluated under different standards or the whole state school system adopt Academic Justice and Fairness in Grading Program. We were told to wear uniforms and chant slogans praising our system of grading on all school athletic and academic events. Unfortunately we were losing in all academic and athletic competitions with other schools.

We heard one day that the students who were known to be above-average but now performing just like the rest of us, were being called into the principal's office. They were being told to study as hard as they used to and become star students again. They were not going to be rewarded with higher grades but they will be sent to these academic and athletic contests to represent the school. They were told that it was their patriotic duty to do this and there would be consequences if they don't comply.

We also noticed that the students who were known to be below-average but now getting grades just like the rest of us, were disappearing from our classes. We learned that they were being sent to another part of the school that was called re-education center. It was announced that although these students were valuable part of the student body, their performance at statewide testing and competitions was being used by staff and students at other schools to discredit our system of grading. They would no longer be allowed to participate in these tests and contests until after they finish their re-education at this center.

Well, if you are a high school or a university student and hear your teacher or professor telling you how great socialism or communism is, ask him or her to implement the Academic Justice and Fairness in Grading Program we had in our school.
