The truth is that the president removed the garbage about writing him a letter. While ridiculous, that was the point.

the Obama sheep will believe anything that he says.

LG would even turn his back on the gators if BHO asked him to.

There should be a sin tax on all that denim that you people wear.

Doesn't matter. This is an absolutely RETARDED argument. I'm so god @#%^ sick of BOTH SIDES of the leadership in this country fighting like 5 year olds over every miniscule issue that they think they can exploit against each other.

Agree 100% with you. Those who are screaming the "other side" are sheep, are simply in a different herd. If the half the energy was spent simply teaching your kids, and looking for solutions to the problems we have, rather than protesting anything they can, then we might actually make progress in this country.

Can you give me a cite for the State of Texas taking any action on this? The school system in Texas is made up of many Independent School Districts and while some of those are not showing the program it is not a state wide event. Appears to me to be more of your "lawyer speak" aka lying.

The last two Presidents have needed no outside help to embarrass themselves, the current one less than the last.

I read in an article last week that a Texas education official was talking about banning it altogether. I took that to mean some central person, though I have Googled it and can't find it. It seems to me you are saying that its a very de-centralized system such that when whatever article I saw said "Texas state education official," that person might not have been speaking on behalf of the entire state system, but perhaps some portion of it.

I did find numerous, numerous hits with links to articles about various districts refusing to show it, one district not showing it but will bus students to go see George Bush give the same message in a couple of weeks, an NBC story about multiple Texas districts refusing to show it, a bunch of schools in Dallas-Ft Worth refusing to air it.

Here is an interesting opinion piece on the subject out of a Texas newspaper, quoting the governor and an education official with some remarkably ignorant remarks. With these complete idiots at the helm, no wonder the state is so azz-backwards on this and many other issues. Ugly opposition to Obama’s education speech went too far | Editorials & Opinions | Star-T...

Thanks for the response. To be more correct, the AISD was not showing it live and that is the same city that spent $300,000,000 of city monies on the new Cowboy Stadium.

It is interesting that you live in a state where many of the citizens can't even operate a simple voting machine and you call Texas azz-backwards.
Although a state that keeps re-electing Rick Perry as Governor may well deserve that moniker.

I was in favor of showing the feed as a delayed broadcast to allow it to be reviewed prior to the children seeing it. I know what Obama said about no political content but that wouldn't be the first time he let the truth confuse him would it?

I suppose that would be a fine solution in principle. In practice, however, parents stupid enough to think that Obama would use such a speech as a political tool would no doubt find something in it to justify their worry. Especially if they were told to do so by FOX or Matt Drudge.

Go to his page, center column, mid way down. Story that Obama used it to tout his health care plan and a pic of a kid giving a sort of Home Alone type of look.

Next question?

Yes. Between him and FOX (mostly FOX, actually), I think millions of gullible, naive, simple minded, bigoted, and poorly educated people every day get their marching orders on what to think.

You can see it in their eyes when they go to the Town Halls and shout the same tired slogans and then, when asked what they mean by the very terms they are using, their eyes glaze over.

Then they give you that same look Palin gave whenever she was interviewed and asked about something other than Moose or her clothes. This vapid, empty, scrambling for an answer that sounds right, but never is, kind of a look.

LG, why don't you understand that it wasn't the speech, but the "lesson plan" that went with it? If it wasn't the lesson plan, then why did they change it? Blame all the people that you want to blame, but if what the President trully had in the beginning was ok, he would have stuck with that. He didn't, he changed it! Why don't you watch Fox News for a week, instead listening to MSNBC and get the entire story for once. I watched Keith Oberman last night just to see his take. All he showed were pundits from other stations talking about and playing the speech inbetween. Never once did he mention the "lesson plan" and the fact that they changed it!

I never said that all Republicans feel this way or that all of them get their news or views from FOX. Neither would I say that all Democrats, or everyone who voted for Obama, gets his views from any partiuclar source.

Its all a matter of gradation. Some Republicans no doubt never or hardly ever watch FOX. Some watch it all the time but don't think any differently for having done so. But some -- and its not so much a party as it is a way of thinking (or not thinking, really) -- get it all from that source.

Just as some liberals get everything from ACORN. Or church.

It is quite evident that you have never sat down and watched Fox News. There is no one on that station that gives "marching orders". Stop listening to MSNBC and using their marching orders. How many of these gullible, naive, simple minded, bigoted, and poorly educated people do you take money for in your practice? Or do you only have non-gullible, non-naive, open minded, non-bigoted, and highly educated people for your clients! Becareful how you answer that one!
