Tasteless and unintentionally hillarious. The organizers should be forced to explain their actions to some old-school nuns.

Gross as well....but you do understand no tax dollars paid for this. This was a private group. The teacher in New Jersey who did the Obama song was in a PUBLIC school. Get it??? You do know the difference between "public" and "private" right?????

I was asked if the Obama video creeped me out and I responded as to what actually did creep me out. Why do have a problem with that? Again, it was last February during "Black History Month" and the kids were celebrating the first black POTUS. The right wing is most obviously running out of steam if this is what their engine of Obama bashing is running on.

I don't care if people are celebrating, yellow, pink or purple history month (which these history months in themselves are quite silly). It is fine to celebrate the "office of president" but to make songs about the specific president....in a public school.....plain wrong. Parents have a right to be outraged over this.

You guys are short on principle and abundant in shallowness.

The principle of the matter is that NO President should be held to such a high-esteem that kids in school are singing his praises and chanting his policies. Period.

It's about the principle, not the person. Why am I not surprised that the forum liberals are not offended? of course, if it was George W. Bush, they'd be beside themselves with anger. You folks are the laughing-stock of the nation and can't even see why. Shameful.

Um, aerogoy, I'm a liberal and disagreed with it upthread.

The fact that they'd use Black History Month as a defense shows that they are incapable of processing the real problem with this stunt. I find that to be particularly sad.
