I don't see why not? Every other president has. It's almost like if you don't want your kid to hear maybe, a different opinion or view point of your own...then that's pretty sad.No offense will but that's your answer for everything. well every other president has done it so whats the big deal. idk maybe people have changed there minds as to what they think should or shouldn't be said in school. ect....
You know people do have the right to change there position on a topic. correct?
You don't think maybe things have gotten to a point where some people would normally blow off what it going on and say "eh, that's politics" are now actually standing up for what they believe. is that so far fetched?
I'm being serious how is it that protesting the president is now something that is wrong will? why are you so pro Obama. i really never see your side other then going "lol" or saying some dumb comment like "everyone else did it , so what?"
come on.....

Heaven forbid somebody should pray in school, but it's alright to brainwash them with someone elses beliefs!?!? Talk about fucking hippocrates.
Then again, educational institutes have wanted nothing more than to create robot conformists that do only as there told. Even when I was in elementary the teachers punished, to certain extent, the kids that stood out, had an active imagination or were too creative. Basically any nonconformist individual.Only in America would the people be so dumb that they would elect a man with "Hussein" for a middle name after being at war in the middle east because of a tyrant whose last name is "Hussein".
I'm almost ashamed to call my self an American, but I'll stick to my guns and hopefully ride this wave of shit out to what I hope is a good ending.Sterling Archer: Oh my god! You killed a hooker!
Cyril Figgis: Call girl!
Sterling Archer: No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!

^^^ Fuck! You cant even say the pledge of allegiance in school anymore cause of whining shitstains, " oh no it says God in it!!! ". Why should he need to tell childeren to send him letters on how to help him do his job? Oh thats right! they watch the show that his slogan came from, (can we do it?) YES WE CAN! Oh, and FUCK OBAMA! worthless prick apologizing to everyone for what? standing up four ourselves? Bending down and kissing the Ass of the middle east. Whats next? apologizing to Europe for liberating them from Hitler, and stopping the Russian advance? Oh well, One of these days people might realize eventually what a mental putz he actually is.

The pledge of allegiance can still be said in schools. Even the "under God" portion of it (called a few friends w/ school aged children who verified this).

I can't speak for your experiences in school, but unless I was causing a scene, no one ever "punished" creativity or thinking outside of the box. They may have questioned what I was thinking, but never ever told me not to think one way or another. Maybe things have changed. I don't know.

The "Hussein" as a middle name thing kills me and is in my opinion the #1 reason the republican party doesn't get taken seriously on a lot of things. Yes, Saddam Hussein was an evil dictator, but former King Hussein of Jordan was a staunch ally of ours during desert storm. This argument is like saying that Reggie Bush has a great political future ahead of him since there have been two presidents named Bush....or that I would be a great person to run an ice cream shop because my last name is Schwan. Again, hate Obama for legitimate reasons (there are enough of them out there) but leave the petty playground shit out of it as it makes you sound EXTREMELY uneducated.

Regardless of who you support, c'mon and pull your head out of your ass. Everyone says something needs to change in the country and the point of contention is his fucking MIDDLE name??

What is this a surprise?
Liberals run the schooling in the nation. On my campus I only know a handful of people that aren't Obama worshipers.

I should have worded my post better. I just thought the name issue was kind of ironic because elections, not necessarily presidential, have been won and lost in the past based on a candidates name. I was simply making an observation.
I guess this is what happens when a mere mortal tries to post in a thread full of political gurus.

I agree with you T Jamz on the name thing, i think i understood what Ichi meant, but it did sound bad the way it was worded. As for the pledge, locally it may still be true that the pledge is alive, But look to bigger citys and more liberal areas, it is happening, they are either not saying the pledge or rewording it. I lived in NY for a while when i was younger and they were bickering about it then. It really shouldn't matter, "One nation under God" I see no problem with it cause weather it is a Muslim, Christian, Jehovah's Witness, Ect, it says God, not any specific god, whatever god you believe in is up to you. Now if you don't agree with the pledge, don't fu**ing recite it! Stand (or sit) respectfully and quietly till it is over. Too many people think they are entitled to force their opinions or beliefs on everyone else. Obama is stuck on the idea that everybody is entitled to the same wealth's as their neighbor. Well Bullshit! i am nowhere near rich, i have a piss poor paying crap job, but I'm not whining for handouts, If you are wealthy because you had a great idea, good education, were born into it, so be it! That doesn't give me the right to make you support me cause I'm not rich, and if you are a lazy no job bum, same thing applies then you only have the right to the fruits of your own labor, NOTHING! Now there are cases where people can't support themselves due to illnesses ect, they may truly need the support, and that's a different story.
