“Education Secretary Arne Duncan's department has taken heat for proposed lesson plans distributed to accompany Tuesday's speech. He acknowledged that a section about writing to the president on how students can help him meet education goals was poorly worded. It has been changed. But Duncan rejected claims that the speech is an attempt by Obama to indoctrinate students with a socialist agenda.”
No the Education Secretary had it worded correctly; they just had to scramble to change it when they got caught. (They have had to do that a lot lately and I am sure they are peeved about the fact that Americans have awoke and are now closely scrutinizing everything the Obama Administration does.) If in doubt about whether Obama is trying to indoctrinate students, look at the original lesson plans and the sudden, coincidental appearance of the Hollywood elite “I Pledge” video around the same time. As usual what on the surface looks innocuous and harmless, but when further research is done there is always an agenda to go along with it. The only politics that should be in school are the American Government course and student body government. Infusing national politics and agendas into the classroom is unnecessary and wrong. I wonder if they will allow a Republican rebuttal or comment to the President’s speech. Probably not as the excuse would be that it was not political and this is not the forum for partisan debate. Those who are supporting Obama’s speech are the same ones that opposed G.H.W. Bush’s speech in 1991. Folks, you can’t have it both ways. That’s called hypocrisy.
