As if I needed any more evidence to bolster today’s column about the Obama junior lobbyist campaign in America’s schools, here’s another item fresh from the headlines in Utah:
A school principal has apologized for showing a video at an assembly that a politically conservative group leader is calling “radical, leftist propaganda.”
Children at Eagle Bay Elementary School in Farmington were shown a short video called “I pledge” on Aug. 28. The video opens with an image of President Barack Obama and part of a speech in which he says, “Let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.” The video then features celebrities making pledges about how they will help the president and the world — and that’s where some say the problem lies…
… Gayle Ruzicka, president of conservative Utah Eagle Forum, said the video was blatantly political. She said other offensive pledges included, “I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama,” “I pledge allegiance to the funk, to the united funk of funkadelica,” and pledges to not use plastic grocery bags and not flush the toilet after urinating.
“It’s very inappropriate to show a radical, leftist propaganda piece that political to children,” Ruzicka said. “If parents want their children to learn about those things and do them in the home, wonderful, fine, but it’s not the place of the school to show a one-sided propaganda piece to children without parents knowing about it.”
Cieslewicz said such values should be decided in the home, not at school.
Coming to a classroom assembly near you…

People helping others is such a horrible thing!!! Did you even watch the video, or do you just blindly listen to that dingbat Michelle Malkin?
we got our 2nd Obama post of the day! Keeping track... so you can see (in presentation form) how nuts you are.
this was nice. but hey we didnt do this for any other president..why this one. and i didnt vote for this man.. knew what was going to happen. so i dont want this crap to be the center of my childrens learning. he is so lonely then get out... something im still not understanding. my vote just went into effect 2months ago and i know a few others as well. so how was he elected if votes werent all counted at that time??? we all r in big trouble.. this was a huge mistake... im so sick of seeing this man plastered on everything and for what? to get us into a deeper mess???
This is in now way constructive, but...Michelle Malkin makes me want to puke!

I WILL be a great husband and a great father. I will CONTINUE not to judge someone by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I will CONTINUE helping my neighbors, friends, or family. I will be a mentor to the younger generation. I will CONTINUE opening doors for strangers and the car door for my fiancée. Why do people need to "pledge" to do these things? Its a natural instinct for me. I was raised to respect others. I don't need to pledge to do something I already do. AND I WONT PLEDGE TO BE A SERVANT TO THE PRESIDENT. HE IS OUR SERVANT....
anonymous 8:59, AMEN to that!
When were you asked to pledge to be his servant?
Ahhhhhh....if you see anything wrong with this then you're just not paying attention.
American, not an african american? He really didn't want to say that.
Slavery? WTF? Not 1 of those over paid people said anything about racist. I will not pledge to be a servant to anyone. LOL what a dumb youtube post
I went to my child's back to school night (2nd Grade), last night and a comment was brought up about the speech that Obama is directing to kids on Tuesday. Parents wanted to know if the school was going to make the kids watch it. They have not decided.
Which school was that?
Proof of the Propaganda,
Empty people with empty words to sway you you worship someone with empty promises and wicked plans.
Whats wrong with you people? The video has a positive message but you guys somehow find fault in anything.
Obama's army...which will be as well funded as our military was the calm during Obama's campaign.
Well said, 8:59.
Thank you.
i pledge to vomit all over my shoes listening to a bunch of liberal pukes who are so out of touch with reality pledge their undying love to another liberal puke who pledges to turn our once strong country into a shadow of its former self so that all liberal pukes may puke with equality..

If any of you DINGBATS know anything about history; this is exactly how Hitler and many other Dictators came into power. Now Obama is NOT Hitler and never will be but the propaganda tools that are being used are strikingly similar to Marxist and Progressive policies.
If Bush did this; everyone on the left would be screaming bloody murder but since you voted for Obama then it must be alright; he's not Bush, in fact; he's worse.
-Obama’s poll numbers are lower than Bush, pre 9-11
-Obama has three massive spending bills in Congress, all create more government
-Obama has stepped UP bombings in Afghanistan
-Several of his Czars proclaim to adhere to Marxism
-He is a worse (non teleprompter) public speaker than Bush, he cant give straight answers on anything.
-Everyone knew (like it or not) what Bush stood for.
That was disgusting.
Here's a better pledge... From a better President and a better man.
"I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every from of tyranny over the mind of man."

9:05 It goes to show how much you actually paid attention to the video. Dimwit Demi Moore said it around 3:54.
I pledge that when discussing the human condition in as many aspects as I can think of, to never, ever, mention the name of
Jesus Christ
ever again. After all, we humans can take care of business all by ourselves.
(with a little help from our real savior, his brother who still lives and guides our lovely governmental bodies through the expansive universe)
Thank you

We will be getting a lot more of this with your dollars paying for it through the National Endowment For the Arts.They have already formed a committe to make creative posters and other artistic propaganda extolling our great leader and his agenda. I wonder when we will have a big statue like the one that fell in
Bagdad or one of the big pictures of Mao in China? What are we going to do to stop this slide into Communism? Writing our legislaters doesn't seem to help.
I am sorry folks but that just mad me toss the cookies. You Obamma people are a bunch of IDIOTS. He was elected to serve us but you seem to have forgotten that. The only thing I see him doing is trying to destroy our way of life as well as our freedom.
Just like Hitler did....
I pledge to boycott these Hollywood Morons' movie's
I pledge to not support anything that gives a dime to Oprah (Harpo)
Although...
Kudo's to the guy who said
American not African American
My kids won't be used as a political pawn for Obama and will not be in school on Tuesday !
