Poll results: Newspaper bailouts

88% of respondents said No. 12% go to the Yes column. To those of you 12%, you do realize the country is broke, right? I’d love to hear why you think we should bail out newspapers. Do you work for a troubled newspaper? I’m curious, really, I am.

The indoctrination of school children continues, 11 new uncovered video’s found

obama_youth

It’s beyond cute (never was it cute, I’m just humoring the radicals), it’s beyond harmless, it’s beyond no big deal. It’s beyond coincidence and it’s beyond bias. It is all out indoctrination and behavior modification. And it is happening in a school most likely in your home town. One more, actually, that would be eleven more reasons in a very, very long and growing list of reasons to a.) home school your children, or b.) send them to private school.

This has to stop right now. People’s jobs need to be lost over this. Here’s what John Nolte of Big Government had to say:

Big Hollywood has already posted a couple disturbing videos of young school children singing/speaking praises to President Obama, but when eleven more dropped in our email box it came as quite a shock. What seemed like an aberration now appears to be a troubling pattern.

Maybe “epidemic” is a better word.

Each one of the videos below is creepier than the last because the further down you go, the younger the children — brace yourself for kindergartners – except for the last and most disturbing video, which you have to see to believe.

This is not the United States of America anymore. I don’t know what the hell it is, but I don’t like it much, I don’t like it much at all. To watch these disgusting, vile video’s and read the rest of John’s post, click here.
