On Friday, Aug. 28, the principal of Eagle Bay Elementary School in
Farmington, Utah — in the name of "education" — showed her young charges the
"Obama Pledge" video released at the time of the inauguration, in which Ashton
Kutcher and various other big-time celebrities, two or three of whom you might
even recognize, "pledge to be a servant to our president and to all mankind
because together we can, together we are, and together we will be the change
that we seek."
Altogether now! Let us chant for mankind and use our pens
to write, "O beloved Obama, our courageous president, we are all servants
defending the hope for you and marching to change."
And, unlike Saddam's
Iraq, we don't have the mitigating condition of being a one-man psycho state
invented by the British Colonial Office after lunch one day in 1922.
Any self-respecting schoolkid, enjoined by his principal to be a
"servant" to the head of state, would reply, "Get lost, creep." And, if they
still taught history in American schools, he'd add, "Oh, and by the way, that
question was settled in 1776."
Read the entire piece.
