OK: Here's the fun part: Someone record Obama's "forbidden" speech to school kids -post on youtube!
with an enticing title like: "The Obama speech your parents won't let you watch!"

then sit back and watch it go viral!

Nothing like making something "forbidden" that makes kids want to do it or see it!

:rofl:

2. I have no doubt that the kids who were told they couldn't watch it
will go out of their way to find it on the Internet, just because they were told it was "bad" or "subversive." Of course, when they finally see it's just an innocuous little speech about how they should work hard, stay in school and get good grades so they can be successful when they grow up, they will be disappointed that it wasn't evil and subversive, but they might also figure out that their school districts (and parents) are idiots and tools.

3. Amen. Right Wingers simply do not understand human nature
They think they can control the mind of another, and their attempts always result in backlash.

6. I'm not flaming or anything
but what the fuck is with all these 'obama speech to the kids' threads today? did i miss something? Did every school district decide not to show it? did even 2 percent of school districts decide this?

wtf happened?

10. yea it makes me sick too
as do the birthers and tea-baggers and anti-reform douche bags etc.

I just hate that the media blows all this shit up to make it larger than it really is; and i really hate it when we fall for it.

Guess I'm just saving all my hatred for the inevitable sellout on the public option.

11. Rated "O" for Obama
This video may contain a president that Conservative parents are paranoid about.
