Let's all thank God that Washington's birthday was changed to President's Day because it was damn horrible being forced to give George Washington credit for anything. |

Or has George W Bush become the messiah while I wasn't looking? and they werent praying TO Bush, they were praying FOR Bush
huge fucking difference |

Just because I posted a similar crazy jackass from the Bush administration, doesn't mean I think it's right.
I think they're both wrong as hell.
Or do you think that I need to defend the President for some reason?
Or do you folks think that somehow Mr Obama is giving this crazy Elementary school teacher their own private, secret instructions?  except they had NOTHING WHAT SO EVER to do with the administration, you LIAR |

I found this really interesting, FOX reported that the principal received death threats and the school went into lock down over this...but then FOX deleted its report that there were any death threats.
It sounds to me that FOX is blowing this way out of proportion and using small children for political tools. Bastards. The Raw Story » Fox News altered ‘Obama praise’ story to exclude ‘death threats’ and ravi goes off the deep end in support of obama AGAIN |

Yeah yeah yeah, it's from Fox News. If CNN had done a story on this (if they did, I couldn't find it), I would have posted that link instead so tough shit. Just because you don't like Fox News doesn't mean the story is wrong. Remember, The National Enquirer broke the Edwards love child story, but we all know that Bigfoot didn't impregnate Paris Hilton.

Bernice Young Elementary School escalated to such a degree Thursday that the school was placed temporarily on lockdown after its principal received death threats Fucking wingnuts.

Yeah, the death threats thing does nothing to make this better.
Funny thing, the only thing the superintendent was bothered by in relation to these videos is, no one was authorized to tape the songs or distribute them.
