rick, it’s obvious in your comments that you have no problem showcasing your racism and belittling those who are either not like you or don’t agree with you….you just don’t get it…this country is made up of all kinds of people, with all kinds of beliefs and it’s changing more and more every day…that’s what you don’t like….somehow i think, you think this country only belongs to white christians….well it belongs to all the citizens, jews, muslims, christians, atheists, buddists, whatever…they count too, as much as you do…what they think counts just as much as what you think…so get over yourself

And Pat, to use your tactics…its Sean Hannity, but then again HuffPo and the rest aren’t where he writes so you wouldn’t know.
GC, if you had been around you’d know this isn’t Dem or Repub…its conservative over liberal/Progressive….and GC if the children were just learning about what a great country this is, there wouldn’t be a problem. But the problem is this wasn’t about how great America is…it’s about how great Obama is. And GC spending more money and increasing unfunded liabilities isn’t fixing a damn thing. Every social program this country has is broke and going broker by the day, and GC show me the jobs this man has created outside the expansion of government. I don’t expect him to have solved much of anything, but I did have expectations that he would a least act like he was fixing things…but no, its Americas bad, lets give money to banks, lets bail out our friends, lets give more money to Acorn, and just in case lets give money to Khaddafi’s kids since of course they’re not nearly the bandit their dad is….And GC, since the Government doesn’t make a profit to do all this….it means I have to support it whether I like it or not, and if not then I have clowns calling me a racist mobster from the extreme right. Well I’ve been called worse, but until you can show me one thing this clown has done to create a private sector job….well kiss my red ass. Hows that for being an American first?

With regard to the above post, I’m trying to be a decent human being first, without being self-centered, and with regard to spirituality. Allegiance to America and all else is secondary, especially the two-party system in need of a third one to balance them.

i happened on this site awhile back when the sanford thing was hot…i’m not from your part of the country but i read the comments regularly on various issues reported here and now i just read thru the article/comments about the school in new jersey…i wish the people who oppose this would just take some time and think back to being a young kid in school…we were being taught that our country was great, therefore our president was great, etc….and there was nothing wrong with that…kids have no political idea, but they are learning to be proud of the country and to be proud of their leaders…when i read thru your comments i can see the “line drawn in the sand” mentality….win or lose…it’s only your country when your party is in power and when they’re not, there’s hell to pay…what happened to us being americans FIRST and then whatever party thereafter? i’m sick to death of people having no direct experience or knowledge of something and then just trashing the hell out of it because they were just brought up to be against it….the democrats have served the people well over the years and so have the republicans…both have had their problems, but we’re still a very resourceful country but the mentality is eroding into democrats VS republicans instead of what it’s suppose to be…support the country the best you can and if you don’t like it, then work for change….the working class people of this country have benefited very well from the efforts of the democrats and the UNIONS….40 hr work week, paid vacation, family leave, osha, social security, medicare, medicaid….maybe you don’t “like” all those programs but i bet you’ve benefited from a few of them….this country was/is in bad shape when our new president took over…he’s doing what he thinks is right…after the last eight years, i think we owe him more than 8 months to straighten it out….and just for the record, i’m an independent, but facts are facts whether you like them or not…the last eight years were nuts for more than 10 reasons…but let’s just stick with the finances….starting with reagan, there has only been one president who left office with a surplus…that was clinton….but that 1.2 trillon dollars that was wiped away in a ny minute for a tax break to the really rich…think about it when you want to just lash out at dems….they may spend and tax, but the repub’s spend and borrow…..why not try being an american first ok?

Rick,
Very clever. I’ll try and keep the “drivel” off the board and elevate it with pole smoking references. By the way, and I don’t expect someone with reading comprehension problems to understand this, but I didn’t support TARP, the stimulus plan as it passed and the failure to pass substantive banking reform. In any event, I’m sure you’re missing Glenn Beck’s show about FEMA concentration camps. Follwing that you can get your weekly dose of birther news from Shaun Hannity. Good look in the wilderness.

No Pat, its not obvious since everything you’ve ever written here shows that you have no center when it comes to defending “the one”. I didn’t compare preschoolers with anyone. You made that leap of logic. Silly teacher? Well, it’s good she’s retired since her ability to give critical thought was impaired so badly. And no Pat, the comparison isn’t there, just the knowledge of what happens within society when individuals are deified. Thanks Pat for not inflicting more of your endless drivel upon the readers….oh, and Pat, I’d have the dress washed before Michele finds out and whips your ass. Spit it out Boy….

Chaz and Rick,
Please take a look at my earlier comments where I said that singing the song was “idiotic” and “stupid”. That not suffcient? Should I have called them “facist”? A comparison of the President of the United States with a mass murderer the only suffcient response, Rick? That the high “standard” your hope to achieve? Comparing preschoolers with Brown Shirt killers?

So no, Obviously I don’t think it was okay. My point was that it was 1) Not sanctioned by the Obama Adminstration, it was the product of some silly teacher in New Jersey. 2) Hence, it could not be conflated or compared with Pol Pot, Stalin, and Hitler – three leaders that were responsible for the murder of tens of millions. The comparison is absurd. And Rick, the remaining portions of your diatribe or so rambling and incomprehensible that I will not bother to address them.

“Words are abstractions that never equate with what they are meant to describe.” Alfred Korzybski

Did the teacher mean “HE”, as in Jesus, or “HE”, as in Obama?

Regardless, poor choice of words & music. I personally do not want anyone teaching my child songs of praise for ANY person. A Thank You is appropriate, not songs of praise sang to a religous tune or any other tune.

Also, insanity has been in the mainstream forever. It’s just the hushed, quiet, truly dangerous insanity wrapped tightly in words of decadence. When fanatics are screaming hate and destruction, you can at least prepare for it and don’t have to guess at what people are feeling and are going to do.

Now, let’s get fanatical about some other issues. IF the proper evidence is there, ie a videotape from a hospital with a child stuck to someone’s sexual organ or covered in cigarette burns, then put THEM on lockdown, as in locked down in prison or in the ground, in some cases. Don’t listen to me, folks, look at the statistics and evidence yourselves.

Too much focus is on politics and spin doctors. When the “crazy” anarchists or others become violent, after peaceful protests and petitioning on truly serious issues, it’s just awful. Where are the people screaming about child abuse? Education? What about the staff in our schools having sexual relations with our kids? Butt Ball in Anderson, folks?

Now go ahead and call me a crazy extremist. I understand the absolute importance of not starting witch hunts and solid evidence in these matters, but the best we can do is get zealous about a song and politics? Cops can beat the crap out of protesters, but not lay one on child molesters they catch in the act?

As a footnote, people are so disturbed by Obama because he bailed out the status quo and cannot realize people want jobs, not welfare, if they can work. Does he not have the ability to sanction those who sold out our jobs to people he, and others, are telling us are the bad guys? Why isn’t he speaking of auditing the Federal Reserve? He’ not speaking about issues lots of people want to hear. More political rhetoric. The pop-star image he created for himself doesn’t help.

Independent and middle-of-the-road is the best place to be. Focus on the truly disturbing issues no one wants to discuss and decide individually where you stand. You may end up being hated by most of the population, jailed, or worse, but it’s preferable to being lead around by the nose.
