"Today, our President Obama has said he was going to address the Children of America. There is one group of America's who are concerned that this amounts to an political indoctrination of young persons in v various stages of there intellectual development. On another side, are ardent supporters of Obama who dismiss who Carte' Blanche dismiss criticism of President Obama addressing the children of America.

The fact of the matter is that both sides fail to respect the legitimate side of the other side.

On its face, I have no problem with any American President addressing the Children of America. I think it would be a great opportunity to partially address some of the problems and symptoms of our America Public Schools. Encouraging Children to set goals, to endeavor to persevere despite adversity, to make no excuses to permit themselves to fail, to be creative and self sufficient are all wonderful goals, attitudes and aspirations to instill in our children - especially with the inspirational awe one uniquely respected such as our American President uniquely possesses. Persons who criticize the president for purely the purpose of being a political tactic, should be reviled and cast aside.

But there are a group of us who have legitimate reason to be concerned with the true intent of President Obama. Originally, President Obama said he was going ask each child to write a letter explaining how they could help the president. This original intent seems...."

This won't make the top story here at NP because it seems to lean to the left. The young people need to look honestly at the way Obama was elected truthfully, his deceit, his embellishments,his real goals to truly make this country like the welfare European countries. Then take a real look at

the way the Socialists took over and cooked everyone they did not like. The way Pelosi and Obama call the right the Nazi's and nuts makes one wonder if they would like to push the button to rid the country of everyone who does not agree with their agenda. I believe so. They certainly hate Freedom of Speech. Narcissists and sociopaths cannot stand to be "judged", critiqued or discussed. It is terror to their false facade. Look at how they freak over Glen Beck? We know why! He exposes their illusions. Holy Macaroni...to hire Czars who are not vetted? We are not even at the end of his first year and the country is in a horrible state. Oh, but it was all of the other administrations fault? Not all of it!

I took the liberty to post some of your article onto Rhonda's concerning this topic for it needs another intelligent ingredient added to her post.

Obama Youth in para-military uniform: Video

Farrakhan calls Obama "the Messiah" and talks about the youth vote and how the youth should listen: Video.

Roy, thanks for posting these very disgusting, horrible video's. How about creating real jobs for our youth who are lost with no place to work instead of transferring that energy to the allegiance to a wannabe " Chavez'

Isn't creating jobs a potentially socialist thing to do? Wouldn't the government be intruding in the free market? Isn't scouts, ROTC, Junior League, Outward Bound and all an evil conspiracy to corrupt young minds to militaristic intent?

You need to read Wittgenstein and challenge your world picture and language limitations. You would be better served by reason more than emotion. Challenge your filters, take empirical evidence and try a different hypotheses as a dogma can tie you up and then you have to call Uncle and go Universal Power. You won't hear, but that is the best advice I can give you - challenge your perception with a different filter and see if the postition you hold still makes sense. Rigid trees generally snap

Thank you for your piece here. Could you place the text in our highlight tool however? As even though you wrote the original text on The Examiner, we do ask that you place it here in highlight so that it doesn't look like a duplicate. Thanks

Hi Amy, sometimes the tools works and sometimes it does not.

I always try to make it work 1 or 2 times before I give up.

Why is this such a big deal? If my memory is corect many previous Presidents addressed school children. Wasn't it GWB who was reading an upside down book when the 911 planes hit the towers? I also seem to recall GHWB and Reagan addresing school children. I read the text of the address and didn't find it at all alarming.

eastanvay: I agree that it's really not a big deal. But when President Bush addressed school kids in 1991, the congressional Democrats made a big stink over it and actually held congressional hearings as a result. And Bush Sr. was in no way a hard-core right winger. There's hypocrisy on both sides of the political spectrum and no single political party or politician is pure as the driven snow like the ideologues would have us believe. My opinion on the matter is that if parents don't want their kids listening to a politician, then they should have the right to opt their kids out of listening to that politician. Left wing or right wing it doesn't make any difference. Whether those parents are stupid or ignorant or reactionary isn't the point. The point is that some parents simply don't like President Obama's policies and the people that he's surrounded himself with because they honestly believe that he's presiding over a radical administration with Marxist tendencies. This is no different from the liberal/progressive parent's beliefs (and I knew many) that had an extreme hatred for not only Ronald Reagan, but for anyone that wasn't a Democrat.

Rng: The only time that anything in this world will approach "rational" is when the earth stands still. Notice the word "approach"; Nothing can be still if it is still standing. Stillness can only be achieved via peaceful non existence. I think I heard that in a movie and it sounded pretty good to me . . . .

Rng, it will continue to be difficult for reason AND sanity to prevail in any discussions involving President Obama as long as the game of 'All points of view are valid and worthy' is played, which often includes mind numbing, inane prattle.

Hello Karen Hatter -

When you say mind numbing inane prattle that arent valid and worthy do you mean like:

pointing out that Obama promised no budget earmarks and he had the most ever?

or mind numbing prattle like

he promised no lobbyist in the white house and there are lobbyist in the white house?

or mind numbing prattle like

well, I know he did not promise but is it to much to ask that the secretary of secretary not be a tax cheat?

or mind numbing prattle

like pointing out he lied about about illegal aliens being covered by health care ( see my latest article for proof)

or mind numbing prattle like

he he liked about death panels and there are death panels already in the VA (see my most recent article rebuttal to obama speech)

Karen, when will you admit that my concerns are legitimate... And dont dismiss me by labeling me republican.. For the 100th time..

The true battle is not Republican vs Democrat, nor conservative vs liberal nor white vs color nor rich vs poor, the real battle is WE THE PEOPLE vs Corrupt Politicians.

How about joing WE THE PEOPLE and help us hand the incumbents in both parties there asses... We are more alike than we are different. The politicians turn us against each other to distract us from their misdeeds? Do you not see you are being played?

Hate me if you must. disagree with me if you must. But hate and/or disagree with me because you hate or disagree with me, not because someone told you to disagree with me.

What say you?

Why don't you come to a tea party and find out what we are really about.

Don't take either of the 2 political parties' word for it...

Cynical Patriot, don't you think that Karen also has legitimate concerns as you say you do? You are as quick to dismiss her as you say she is to dismiss you.

I find your comment to be very baiting, please refrain from this behaviour.

Thank you for your kind words QueensHart! Don't you just love that song? Who sang that . . .Martina McBride? Every time that cutesy little punk Hannity plays it, I just want to _____ fill in the blank! LOL!

Yeah. The song is about domestic abuse (to child and spouse) tho... So quite a sad realtiy of this country that not enough is done about as most resources go to the "war on drugs." Gotta love the priorities...
