Students Pledge Allegiance to Flag With Obama Image Beside It

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?

Nothing says power of your convictions like hiding behind an anonymous email.

If the principal brushes you off, why not go to the local press. I'm sure they'll have a field day and the outrage of the community should get you heard more than your single voice.

 

[nimue77]

I posted this, but without a video, or some major action taken against what supposedly is happening, i'm certainly skeptical of this story.

Yeah but the Teacher might take it out on the kid.

people purposely say false and stupid shit all the time to get attention. people fall for it though because they want it to be the truth, so they become gullible idiots.

look at guys like loren78. why do you think he says half the shit he says. to get attention.

nimue wants this to be true so he can run with it since he's anti-obama. i reigned the kid in a bit though when i told him to slow down and not believe everything you read like an idiot.

We have here the second hand testimony of a six year old that in the fall there was no image of President Bush displayed near the US flag.

But a colleague of mine who's been teaching in the Texas public school system since 1987 tells me that every classroom in every public school has a portrait or photo of the current POTUS displayed by the flag

Barman,

That is not true about the picture of the POTUS my son is in public school and there is no picture of either president past or present.

Barman,

I think we can all agree that Horns correctly notes Barman's friend could not possibly have checked every classroom in the Texas public school system.

First of all, i'm older than you. Second, I was skeptical of the story before I posted it...but felt like posting it anyhow. Third, you're an idiot you marxist society wanting fool.

GTC08 calling someone an ignorant kid.

You can't make this shit up.

I couldn't have said it any better.

GTC08 is a kid that walks around with a Che T-shirt on like he has
a clue.

Barman,

The fact that you posted this BS story from your friend proves
that you have even less brain cells than the few I gave you credit for.


hno:

You can't seriously believe for a second that this BS is true..
Please tell me you must be high on crack or LSD again?

We had a picture of Elvis.

 

[barman]

My colleague was clearly mistaken, based on the testimonial of HORNS

you ran with it without thinking it may be fake because you wanted it to be real. funny once i pointed out to you to slow the hell down before you go on these crazy tirades you decided to take back what you posted.

you fell for the bait because you wanted to buy it and you got caught. simple as that kiddo.

simple conclusion. if you thought it was fake you wouldn't have posted it. instead you ran for whatever any blog said that had something anti-obama and posted it like a little kiddie thinking you had some important information that meant something. ultimately you end up being the fool.

Ah this is nothing. When I was in first grade I sat next to a kid who routinely shit his pants.

High fiber diet. Good for you.
