So mormons are against summoning a new spirit of patriotism and responsibility where they resolve to pitch in and work harder? Interesting.
Against a centralized voice telling them to do so. You don't need a dirty filthy lying politician like the Obama/Bush team telling them to be patriotic.
Didn't Hitler's followers have a slogan also? "Heil Hitler" or something like that.
From the story:
Chris Williams, Davis School District spokesman, said school principal Ofelia Wade and school PTA leaders decided to show the video as part of an assembly about the school's theme for the year, service. He said the PTA board chose the video and Wade did not see it before it was shown in the assembly.
Seems some well-intentioned people selected a video that was in part inappropriate for schoolchildren (I'm thinking in particular of the "to never give anyone the finger when I'm driving again" pledge). If people have a beef, it's not with Obama, who had nothing to do with the creation of the video or its selection, but the PTA board that chose the video.
