Here's why the "oligarhy" crowd can't spell


The latest viral wingnut e-mail, sent early on Tuesday, reveals that teabaggers (with the help of the G0P) are organizing a nationwide "Keep Your Kid Home From School Day" to protest President Obama's upcoming address to schoolchildren on the importance of studying hard and getting a good education.

Read it for yourself and have a good laugh:

Word is traveling fast on the internet, between bloggers and twitter, the choice is clear : No school for kids on September 8th due to the beginning of Socialist Indoctrination of Americas children.
Keep your kids home September 8th

2009 September 1

Take a day of vacation. Go to the zoo. Anything that would save your offspring from what I will bluntly say is just the quasi-fellating the executive branch. That cackling over a bubbling cauldron you hear is the NEA rejoicing.

President Obama’s Address to Students Across America September 8, 2009
I wouldn’t have such a problem with the Department of Education were this presented in a non-Orwellian fashion. Oh yes, it is, as the lesson plan directs, to listen to what t he president, the mayor, et al. says, to respect their "authoritah" </Cartman>, but there is no emphasis in here on why the president and other elected officials should listen to US. The focus is solely on authority. There is no consideration given to the authority of the American people. That’s what concerns me.
There is this mindset that those in Washington are the "elite," that we should mind our Ps and Qs and blindly follow their directives. That’s not the manner of governance upon which this country was founded – it is quite the opposite; even the hobbyist Constitutional aficionado appreciates this.
So yes, keep your kids home on September 8th and teach them that the power of America rests in the hands of its people, no one else.

NOTE TO OBAMA :

LEAVE OUR KIDS ALONE !!!!

Funny thing is, you didn't hear a peep from these nutjobs when the first President Bush delivered a 15 minute speech to the nation's classrooms on the importance of avoiding drugs. You didn't see any of them blowing a gasket when teachers were supplied with guides to help student's interpret President Reagan's Challenger Speech. And you certainly didn't see Democrats pulling their kids out of school over either of those events.

As I googled to see if there was more coverage of this protest, I stumbled across the Give Us Liberty blog by Judy Mcleod:

It's Called Indoctrination...KEEP YOUR CHILDREN HOME ON SEPT. 8! The Less They Are Exposed To This Communist The Better!

Flunked with parents, `Professor POTUS’ to shill Socialism on School Kids

excerpt:

Obama is doing to American school children exactly what was done to him: Indoctrination.

It was indoctrination by social activists that brought a young Obama to the streets of Chicago as a community organizer.

There is no report card or graduation for a community organizer only indoctrination.

Is it fair for Obama to use America’s school population as his private teaching ground?

No. Especially when you know this overblown professor can’t be counted on to teach the textbook set the proven downside of socialism; that it has, over time flunked everywhere else it has been tried; that it kills the human soul and inevitably leaves a path of human misery in its wake.

For politicians cum professors, vulnerable children in classrooms make the perfect captive audience.

If Obama’s campaign speeches won over adult voters, who fell for his promise of hope and change, what chance does an impressionable young student have to escape the propaganda of a slick and smarmy Socialist?

Wonder if his daughters’ private school will be subject to this assault on public education, or are they taught socialism in nightly bedtime stories?



Wow. I'm speechless.

They truly are batshit crazy.

15. That last line about the Obama daughters' private school

I would be amazed if the author of that line were smart enough to understand the sheer hilarity of that statement, that kids in a private school are taught about socialism as bedtime stories.
