It has become even more evident after watching all of the unnecessary hoopla over Obama's motivational speech to American school just how much racial bigotry is playing a role.
The fear-mongering is completely out of control and dealing with these people like trying to run in the mud.
These people must be a great embarassment to the Republican establishment. The Republicans must be watching these loonies and think that the party will never recover if the image of the Republican party are these over-the-top, hypercritical, unpatriotic nitwits.
It is not bigotry, it is wanting to stay a free nation. The wording has been changed but I think there was a Freudian slip when the plan was to have the children tell how they can help Obama. Our nation is made up of more than one person and the children should be learning how to make our nation stronger, not Obama. It is of the people, by the people, and for the people, NOT of Obama, by Obama and for Obama.
I think there are a lot of us that are getting more than tired of being called names because we practice our American right to not agree with the president. I would not keep my child from listening to the president and I think children should be taught to respect the office even if they do not agree with the president, but this president is taking our country to a change we don't want and I will not hush about it.
I think it would be good if he tries to get the students to be responsible for themselves. I was listening to a show today talking about the housing bubble and one person was really angry that someone gave her a loan. She thought they should have known she could not pay the loan?? I think it is past time that people started being responsible for their own actions.
I guess I am just getting old and have a generation gap, but I would never think to blame a bank for loaning me money. I am the one that should be deciding whether that is a good idea. Every generation has a nickname. I am calling this generation the irresponsible generation.

As I have asked others with a similar opinion (none of which have been able to answer) How is that any different from Bush's speech to kids in 1991 when he asked kids the exact same thing?

You got the answer you just don't like it. Bush was criticized.

And Gephardt's comments compare to what has come from the foaming at the mouth right how exactly?? And his criticism (which I disagree with btw) nearly to the same extent obama has been. Parents didn't threaten to keep their kids home, People weren't screaming OMG he is going to indocrtinate our kids and preach Communism, and facsism, and all of this other crap that has been fluttered about
Oh my goodness. You do understand the difference between opinion and news right? Opinion (like the op ed page in a newspaper) isn't news. It doesn't deal with who, what, when, where and why. It deals with, well, opinion. Now go out there and find me a link where FOX news reported anything like you claim. Go on and don't come back until you find it. Consider this your home work.
I don't think anyone would use This Week (it is an opinon show on ABC) to show their bias. Or Meet the Press (another opinion show).

You do realize Fox Presents their opinion shows as factually based news correct??

Again so what the intensity differs. The intensity of partisanship was different then too. Lighten up. People were against it then and they are against it now. Why is it so impotant for the left to have him speak to the crumb crunchers anyway?

Umm no they don't. It is called the Sean hannity show, the Bill O'reilly show. Please link, show your work.
