CREEPY, CREEPY, CREEPY

Disturbing
It's very disturbing to me that it's possible Obama may be elected, and this video just adds to it. In a way it reminds me of a TV program that I saw during the Iranian hostage crisis years ago where children in Iran were chanting all sorts of anti-Amrican slogans, of course those messages being approved by Ayatullah Khomeini (I probably scorched the spelling there). It's one thing for children to sing as a performance for a candidate, but totally another for children to "endorse" a candidate. So many people are embracing Obama, either not knowing the troubling baggage he has, or just not caring.

OBAMA SUPPORTERS BRAINWASHING OUR KIDS
Obama supporters are brainwashing our kids, this is disgusting,
there is teachers all over our country pushing their support for Obama on our kids,
teachers are there to teach,
not to teach their personal views.

McCain Kids
Animalgirl:

The video these McCain kids did was definitely their own production, as anyone can tell; their own lyrics and performance; their own idea. The Obama video was the product of adults using their kids for propaganda purposes, trying to make it look like a grass roots thing when anyone with half a brain and one eye can tell it's as phony as Obama himself.

i think I saw glowing red eyes....
Silly parents, don't they know that the private school they cherish with that wonderful "music" program would be taken away by Obama or that they wouldn't be able to afford that school when Obama raises their taxes.

animalstyle, those are teens and older.
Hardly children. And they are not being coached by a overly energetic adult. Nice try. This is more like Obama Girl. Nothing creepy about it.

Yasser Arafat's Message to Children: "Be a Shahid" (a person who dies for Allah)
Palestinian Authority TV
January 15, 2002

Arafat explains that dead Palestinian children are "the greatest message to the world."

Interviewer: Mr. President, what message would you like to send to the Palestinian people in general, and, particularly, to the Palestinian children?

Arafat: The child who is grasping the stone facing the tank - is it not the greatest message to the world when the hero becomes a shahid?

Difference between right and left
Convervatives teach their kids to respect lasting things of value, such as God, their country and the Constitution. Liberals teach their kids to worship individuals, and to place their hope and trust in things that will always ultimately fail them (government).
The people that put this together are truly "useful idiots." Heaven help us all.
Pam writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 6:21 PM
propaganda machine at work
Is the authority to 'change' and 'rearrange' really the power we want to hand over to a Marxist? This is why I don't trust Obama to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution the way I perceive it should be done to assure my continuing freedoms. From what I've learned about him, he's more likely to abuse, ignore and distort it. He doesn't even have the courage to vote yea or nay, just 'present' in issues of vital national importance. That's a long way from credibility. Creepy, creepy, creepy is right. This is Chinese children singing the praises of Mao. And it's not about race; it's about ideals.

SCREWTAPE: NOT A PROBLEM
I'm not familiar with Dr. Strangelove. As for my caps being locked....their not. I've always been a fan of emphazing a point, whether it be anger, or just a point. I know most folks see the caps as "yelling", but this is my take on it: to emphasize a point (I) use caps; to yell, I use this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So anyway, forgive me for my unbridled anger, didnt mean to shove it your way.
Be Blessed,

I am in total agreement with your sentiment, sir. I just find posts in all caps off-putting and was trying to get you to stop doing it in a tongue in cheek kind of way, thus my 'Dr Strangelove' reference. I should have put an emoticon in there somewhere, sorry.

obama's praise team
At my church we have children singing praise and signing before worship, but it is to the LORD. Now that I see the church of "H" (b H obama) youth choir performing on this video it makes me wonder how long it will be until his praises are required before all school children start their indoctrination each day.

Thoroughly understandable
This is from Venice, California. It is right next door to the Peoples Republic of Santa Monica. It is the land of "Kum Baya", LSD, free love and communal everything. Bums and drug addicts flock here where they are fed 3 squares a day and get free healthcare (from the free clinic). These kids display why so many people run from California. They are brainwashed, one and all.
Bob writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 3:25 PM
Creepy
This truly is creepy. This is the kind of stuff you see in totalitarian countries like North Korea, Saddam-era Iraq, and other dictatorships where the children are brain-washed to sing songs of praise to the "Leader." The parents who have used their children here should be ashamed, rather than standing around smiling so proudly. Totalitarianism with a happy face.

Obama on the National Anthem.....
'...And the anthem itself conveys a War-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song, 'I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might Salute it.'
LauraG writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:50 PM
It is indoctrination through communism
tactics of brainwashing our young innocent children who don't know any better, and it is utterly dispicable.

This country best get it's sh!t together soon or we'll be saying: 'Heil, Obama,' sir!

Ignorant, ignorant buffoons!

I'm disappointed in Hilllarty that she couldn't have found a way - any way to beat that low-life, Marxist dog.
Scott writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:49 PM
Creepy, Creepy, Creepy
This is definitely creepy, put aside the fact that most children are going to echo their parents politically if even inclined to do so atleast until their teens, this reeks of fascist propaganda. Bogus refrains about "change", the disgusting use of that idiotic "O", These children are being taught to put their faith in a man, not any ideas, principles, or policies. What is so frightening about Obamania is it is without any substance to refute among the weakminded "Change, hope, etc." well who is against any of that anyway? But what is even more creepy is the messianstic devotion to one single man and his suposed transformative powers(that have yet to be displayed) over any ideas(of which he really hasnt provided any)he suposedly represents.
There are songs you should teach children to sing in times of politics, songs like oh I don't know maybe "The National Anthem", "America, the beautiful", "God Bless America", not this nonsense.
Trampling out the vintage writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:36 PM
This is their church!
This is where these people worship.

1. The kids look like they have no clue why the parents are cheering so hard. Geez Mom, it's just a song, why are you crying?

2. Is this considered constructive? Teaching a child a song about one guy that isn't even our POTUS? Seems very presumptuous.

All in all, I don't see this as a big deal. I do see a level of worship that is higher than a rationally normal person would admit.

Amerika and The Children's Story
Substitute the Soviets for the Obama maniacs and this video could fit right in ABC's Amerika miniseries or James Michener's The Children's Story.

Just to think--we stopped the Soviets from ever poisoning our children.

And the left wing came right in and did it.

I find it sickening when anyone uses Children for propoganda in any political sense. Children are appeasers that are just looking to agree with you to make you happy. They now more understand "Change" the Obama way than they could answer you realisticly about the price of a car.

It is abuse, plain and simple. Whether the dems do it to their children or the republicans to theirs.
animalgirl writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:14 PM

There's nothing more horrifying than singing children. Whenever children's choirs sing I run screaming from the room.
COLONEL JON RAMBO writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:13 PM
INDOCTRINATION : Good or Bad?
It is a shame to see these youths proclaiming change when they no nothing about the process but what their parents and teachers tell them. Whats more disturbing is maybe some of the parents have no knowledge of what the school faculty is teaching them.
What in the world is the public school system teaching children about a one sided race for the White House. If Mc Cain had his youth program it would of been under attack immediately. I sincerely believe the authorities ought to come in and rip the teachers and the children apart....peaceably. This kind of teaching belongs in the home not the schools.
I'm sure we've haven't heard the last of this.
BE BLESSED, AND HAVE A GOOD DAY!

brainwashed singers
Does anyone else get a sick feeling seeing American children singing praises to their (future) ruler Obama, like the little robotic children in the communist countries who sing praises to their great leader Mao, or Stalin, or any of the monsters like them? We are on the verge of losing our country to the socialists/communists. The horrors in the communist countries that we've read about are starting to come in full view here, and no one is yelling about it, everyone is falling in line! I used to think "It can't happen here" but now I'm not so sure. I want to cry for the loss of our country and our freedom.
Richard writes: Tuesday, September, 30, 2008 2:10 PM
Barry's "civilian force"??

Are these the seeds of a vast army of believers who will defend "Father" against all attacks, real or imagined??

Kinda like Stalin, Hussein, Kim Jong Ill, Mao?

These guys love the sound of "the children" singing their praises.

It IS truly creepy. The left just eats it up though.

Shouldn't they have armbands too? And standardized footwear?
