Let's us sing a song of praise to the one who is going to spread happiness and freedom:
You know what song came to mind when I saw this video? "Jesus loves the little children." Sadly, the messiah they have put so much hope in that inspired them to sing this song of praise, isn't worth their adoration and is bound to disappoint. No mere mortal can live up to the level of praise in this song. If the song was heartfelt (and not something that their music director made them sing), then I hope they aren't too disappointed when the realty doesn't live up their fantasy and they realize they put their hope in someone who couldn't possibly deliver all they expected him to deliver (can any political leader guarantee happiness?). But since their kids, they'll probably forget about it next year :-)

I started this video for my daughter (who said, "are you really going to make me watch this?"
(This is her first election..)
"Can you tell me with a straight face that you would not be positively, shriekingly appalled if the McCain camp produced a video like this?"
In this era of the politics of resentment, I'm not so sure the McCain camp didn't. Don't those lovely children look like they could have been chauffered in from Saddleback Church?
But I will write with a straight face I'm even more appalled at the prospect that European chuckleheads who support Obama (the lyrics seem to have appeared in German before they appeared in English) from countries that don't have the greatest track record in selecting their leaders, either, would write this trash. Fortunately the Germans who equate Obama with their Messiah can't vote here.
Anyone who watches this video and doesnt see a problem needs to seek help now! This is not a video of some innocent children singing and smiling. This was produced by professionals and the parents of these children allowed and watched it happen! AMAZING! This was the doing of a teacher no less! The school she works for should fire her immediately! This is exactly like a third world country leader forcing children to sing and praise him for fear they would be harmed if they didnt do it with a smile on their face. Parents are to protect and teach their children, not exploit them. The teacher has made her choice and is choosing to force it down the throats of these children, litearally! What ever happened to showing children how an election works and how there is many choices and they can make up their own mind. This is just down right wierd and the parents that allowed it must be out of it!!!!!!!
"s that what you call it when you use political power to stifle dissent, as he has done in Missouri?"
how so? did he have protesters arrested, and i missed that story? does he kick dissenters out of his rallies?
"Is that what you call it when his campaign sends out droves of acolytes to bombard a radio station in response to opposition?"
what radio station, and what evidence do you have that obama sent these people out to bombard the station? how do you know that it's just not ordinary people who support obama and are very excited about this election (as MANY public opinion polls have been pointing out for months).
"Is that what you call it when his believers use character asassination of an opponent and her daughter for the sin of being the VP candidate?"
obama clearly and on multiple occasions said that family is off limits.
"Is that hope against division born of a religious philosophy that cuts and pastes the Bible to infer that Jesus is only as good as what he will do for us in this world?"
show me a religious philosophy that doesn't cut and paste the bible to infer what that sect takes comfort in.
"Does that hope for an end to division in this country get its start in commitees chaired by an extremist (not former extremist) whose only regrets about his past bombing campaign was that he didn't do enough?"
there you go distorting facts and pushing guilt by association. that's your entire argument. obama didn't start his life or career in a committee chaired by an extremist.
"Is hope generated by the corrupt politics of Chicago?"
show me evidence that obama is a corrupt politician out of chicago.
"... politcal correctness and promising the suspension of white guilt."
you're all about political correctness when it comes to dealing with palin, or mccain, or the white party. but you are quick to trot out racist jargon at the drop of a hat. and just so you know, the only ones who whine about white guilt are racists. it's hilarious to hear the seething rants about white guilt when the subject is a successful man who had a black father and a white mother.
