I hope some of those who wanted to squelch the feared Obama Back-to-school speech are feeling a little bit embarrassed this morning. That would indicate that they are decent and smart enough to feel shame over their silly statements.
Their unbecoming shrieks of horror at the thought of The (duly elected) President's intention to address the school children of the nation were solely based upon a perverted interpretation of the press release. They were reacting (or should I say 'over-reacting') to what they thought he was going to say, not what he did say.
These same people - who have accused Obama and the liberal conspiracy of stomping on the first amendment - now think that it is OK to shut (and shout) down opponents based on what they might say.
They characterise themselves as 'Patriots', but really, they are the dis-loyal opposition to anything Obama. They confuse loyalty to an ideology with patriotism. Sadly they have stopped seeking truth, balance and fairness. Their credibility is in the trash bin.
Obama's message was very controversial: Stay in school; Don't give up; You can succeed.
If this is Socialism, sign me up.

Well said.
I missed it. Did he say anythings about the death panels?
Yes, he said Sarah Palin was on the DNR list.

Then chime in (and click your boots).
IF you have a problem with everything Obama does, says and thinks, you might see evil in the songs of schoolchildren...silly!
Last week Rush was playing clips from the speech (which seemed perfectly non political to me) and yelling "This is not what Obama believes!" It was hilarious.
DEN is boot-clicking again ...
No, the clicking sound you hear is the sound of the conservative mind locking the ports to reason and empathy. Or maybe it's just crickets.
"Not with a bang but with a wimper."
Aptly quoted from the conservatives anthem - "Hollow Men"
Yes, written by the very man who became a Catholic later in his life.
