Obama's speech to students text

[QUOTE=GeoFisher;381768]NOT the president..........YOU AGAIN MISS THE POINT.......

The department of EDUCATION......sent GARBAGE......yes.....GARBAGE to the schools making suggestions on how to integrate the speech into their lesson plans for the DAY......

That my FRIEND......is ILLEGAL.......and what I'm talking about.

I didn't parse words.

Thanks,

I don't understand this thought at all. There is a big difference in setting a curriculum, and tying stuff into the curriculum to supplement it. He didn't change anything.

Had a Republican done it you'd be RIPPING his head off........and burning him in effigy.

BOTTOM LINE......the DOE is not chartered to send material to schools to SET curriculum.....did you NOT read the links associated with my post.

The speech did not bother me......the Material did.

Later,

And this is what I've been saying all along - that the opposition is really just based upon political affiliation and not really about what was actually happening.

People just want to be angry, offended, opposed, etc. these days for no good reason and I'm growing tired of it.

I would have felt just the same - republican or democrat - as long as it stayed away from being a politcal/agenda driven speech. I have said that all along during the obama speech debate. I am not anti republican - I admire many republicans, voted for several. I (personally) tend to agree with the democrats as a whole more than republicans. However, I don't take it as far as nit picking every little flaw about any and every republican I can find. I would be ripping Obama on here if his speech was remotely political - but I knew from the start it would not be.

Again there is a huge difference in sample lesson plans for activities and curriculum.

And how might I add,can you prove this? Because the propoganda machine says they didn't change the speech? Obama had quite a bit of time between the announcment
of the upcoming speech,the resulting uproar over it,and the day the actual text came out,yet you can say absolutely without a doubt nothing was changed?

He's saying they didn't change any curriculum.

Wow that makes it the truth huh? The man is a "fool" and a liar...well basically a politician.

He has done the same with this insurance bill. Watch tonight and see how much different these talking points are from before.

I'm just not as trusting as some folks,nothing about party lines either.

The "he" I was referring to was Col Forbin. Is "he" a fool and a liar?

I think a couple of people need to read back through this thread. It's easy to see how people get confused by just a basic message board thread, nevermind the workings of our government.

I'll own up to the fool part. LOL!!
