"I pledge of allegience to....Obama?"
I found this posted on a site. If it is even partially true it is too scary to think about.

Moderator: To me this is hard news but post where appropiate.
My son, who is in 1st grade, came home yesterday saying that he didn't want to go back to school anymore. So I asked him why? He said that during the Pledge of Allegiance the teacher put up a large image of Obama next to the flag. I asked him if he was sure of this and I suggested to him that maybe the teacher just put up an 8x10 photo of the president. He said, "No, it is a large picture of Obama and when we are done Ms. **** turns off the image." I also asked if they did this for Bush last year? He again said, "No." This was my sons first day back to school since before Christmas, he was on a 5 week track break.
My wife volunteers a couple of days each week with helping out with my sons teacher doing various duties. She said that she would come in early this morning to see what was going on. She just got back and reported that this was true and then some. She said she waited out in the pod area and could see inside 3 of the 5 class rooms in this section of school. She said that when the kids stand each teacher flips on the classroom overhead and a full body image of Obama, with six U.S. flags behind him, comes up about 4 feet away from the flag that hangs on the wall. She said that the image has Obama staring straight at you with no facial expressions, just a serious look. I asked my wife if Obama had his hand over his heart? She said that she was so taken aback by this that she didn't see it. What is worse is she said that all of the kids in each class faced Obama instead of the flag that hangs in the corner.
What the heck is going on?
Guys and gals, I need some advise on how to approach this. I can be somewhat hot headed so I need to plan accordingly with what to say to the principal when we go in to inquire about this. I am sure I will be brushed off so what is my next step? Obviously it will be the school district but then who? ACLU, Veteran groups, Christian groups? Who would be interested in this vile activity?
This is happening in the Clark County School District here in Las Vegas, Henderson area
This is nonsense
A similar post was deleted yesterday because it's a viral, internet, neo-con "heartbreaking" propaganda story and completely unfounded.
"I found this posted on a site." - What site ?
Delete it. Mod's ?
There seems to be 3,4 or 5 HUGE outlandish claims being circulated on the internet in the last few days. I think this is going to get out of hand if we don't nip it in the bud as soon as possible.
or else...we're next.
Hmm...good point! What site is that? (Love Andy Griffith BTW!)
You gotta know when to hold 'em...
What are you fightin' for?
Caught in the middle?

Delete it on what basis?
...That you don't like it?
I can't delete things based on philosophy. There would have to be at least SOME kind of violation of the guidelines. I don't see one.
I wouldn't even delete the phony "Robin Williams Peace Plan" e-mail if someone posted it. I think it would at least have to be SPAM to justify deletion.

was this story deleted yesterday ?
Yes.
On what basis ? ?.... ?
btw, Loved seeing RP as a cartoon. Very accurate physical depiction (in my mind anyway).
A source for the story would be nice Kevin...but I'll not call
its deletion based on that.

Tough one
Only a few things come to mind:
Can you wife really be slick and get it on video?
2nd you guys have a huge Ron Paul group down there, can you work through our leaders there?
Contact Campaign for liberty.
And if you go directly to the school:
They didn't have pics of Bush
It is "I pledge alegiance to the FLAG" they are sending the wrong message.
last: What a bunch of FuckTards.
First, can anyone from DP confirm
this as happening in their school districts? I trust people here to check things out before they go wacky and I am not able to do anything from where I am.

I can't confirm this either especially since I'm beyond school
age and don't know any kids really.

All I can say is....
if it is true, if it can be confirmed by others...then patriots better start spreading the news far and wide...because this is very, very bad if it's true. _____________________________

I'll have to ask
my grandson and see what's going on here in Az. That is really sick, but that's how the Communist party revers their Communist leaders. They are a replacement for God, and communists don't like God. It's all about worshiping the state. Sounds like homeschooling is going to be more important than ever. I would be every bit as angry as you, as what you can say..... bigger question seems to be who would listen. We have turned a dark corner in corporate USSA.
