    A video posted on YouTube appears to show a New Jersey elementary school class being taught to sing praises of the "great accomplishments" of President Obama.

    The video shows nearly 20 young children taught a song overflowing with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack Hussein Obama," repeatedly chanting the president's name and celebrating his accomplishments, including his "great plans" to "make this country's economy No. 1 again."

    The video identifies the kids as students at the B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, N.J., with taping taking place last June.

    The song quotes directly from the spiritual "Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's: "He said red, yellow, black or white/All are equal in his sight. Barack Hussein Obama."

    Song 1:
    Mm, mmm, mm!
    Barack Hussein Obama

    He said that all must lend a hand
    To make this country strong again
    Mmm, mmm, mm!
    Barack Hussein Obama

    He said we must be fair today
    Equal work means equal pay
    Mmm, mmm, mm!
    Barack Hussein Obama

    He said that we must take a stand
    To make sure everyone gets a chance
    Mmm, mmm, mm!
    Barack Hussein Obama

    He said red, yellow, black or white
    All are equal in his sight
    Mmm, mmm, mm!
    Barack Hussein Obama

    Yes!
    Mmm, mmm, mm
    Barack Hussein Obama


    Song 2:
    Hello, Mr. President we honor you today!
    For all your great accomplishments, we all doth say "hooray!"

    Hooray, Mr. President! You're number one!
    The first black American to lead this great nation!

    Hooray, Mr. President we honor your great plans
    To make this country's economy number one again!

    Hooray Mr. President, we're really proud of you!
    And we stand for all Americans under the great Red, White, and Blue!

    So continue ---- Mr. President we know you'll do the trick
    So here's a hearty hip-hooray ----

    Hip, hip hooray!
    Hip, hip hooray!
    Hip, hip hooray!

    Wow! I'm trying to think of anything similar that's gone on with a conservative president.

    This is quite disturbing to me.

    Isolated. Fox news makes it sound like all our kids are singing today.

    How does the report make it sound like all kids are singing?

    The report is specific as to who these kids are and makes no mention of any other schools or groups of kids.

    Perhaps you have an anti-Fox bias?

    This sort of thing is inappropriate for any president regardless of political orientation. As was allegedly originally inscribed on Oliver Cromwell's casket - "God, not man, is King."

    Why is it that liberals cannot make legitimate comparisons. This is in no way the same thing although the charismatic garbage is foolish. They were praying for the President not singing praises about him.

    Alatide/freedom/JustChristian/whatever's problem is this: He is so intellectually dishonest...that even when presented with a clearly troublesome issue...instead of agreeing that it is wrong...he must look for a "right-wing" equivalent to it...even if one does not exist.

    But even if there is an equivalent example from the right...he still can't bring himself to admit that this is disturbing video we are seeing.

    Heck, for all we know, he wrote the song.

    Why is it that the CONs try to distort everything? I suppose it's because they have no legitimate arguments.

    Only in Justchristianfreedomalatidesockpuppetoftheday's world can actual video not count as "evidence."

    This is absolutely disgusting! :eek: I would pull my kids out and take legal action.

    What a disturbed lady she should NEVER work with children! Criminal charges should be brought against her.

    I must say, I don't care who the President is...this is over the top. The people responsible for this should be on the receiving end of disciplinary action.

    I hope some students hearing such songs have the creativity to fight fire with fire. For example, We've got a black man in the White House,One who's marxist to the core.Christian momma, muslim pop;Eating Jeremiah's slop--As he pukes it up, the worms are are out the door.

    :applause:

    While I may not agree with a huge number of your positions, this is what differs you from the common trolls on this board such as JustChristian. I applaud you sir.

    Whoever is responsible should be made to go on a date with Barney Frank or Nancy Pelosi...whichever disgusts them more.
