I haven't backed off anything.

Now that the content of the speech is out, do YOU want to back off? Or do you still really believe this is about indoctrinating children rather than making a simple speech about staying in school?

The only reason that the phrase "help the President" was changed was to appease the people who went ape **** over something innocuous. Because it was innocuous, they changed it. Why fight over a stupid line in a lesson plan? If people are really going to get THAT worked up about, just change it.

It's no use fighting over something that stupid. If your side realized that, it would never have been an unnecessary national issue in the first place.

It was changed because people objected to the political stuff I included in my original post, not because "people don't like Obama" as I mentioned in my post.
I think this is untrue for the reasons stated above. The people playing "politics" here are the people such as yourself who are getting all worked up over a throwaway line in a lesson plan for a speech on staying in school.

Your paranoia and Obama hatred are driving this "issue," not anything Obama has said or done. This is only confirmed by the content of the speech itself.

I also mentioned in my original post no one would really care much about it, I wouldn't, if he was just welcoming the kids back to school and advising them to study hard and use his personal example to inspire the children into the future.
And now that the speech has actually come out, can you admit that you were "caring" for nothing?

You don't like the Chavez comparison that is nice I didn't like all the Hitler references to Bush either, and how the patriot act was going to move us into a Bush dictatorship. I'll continue to amuse myself with equal accusations against "your guy".
You can amuse yourself all you want, however, I'm sure you are aware that you are simply mimicking the same behavior you once found so reprehensible. Instead of repeating it, maybe you should not act that way? Or, if you insist, don't be astonished when people get mad about it.
