Ron Clark (if it’s the same one) was actually one of those great educators that should be lauded not for academic theories in Pedagogy, but for giving and giving from his personal self to change individual lives. The song’s much more toned down than the Praise Obama songs and that little guy, Willie, man did he level the rhetoric by giving a very articulate and dispassionate response. I want to meet that young man’s mom and dad, they must be awesome parents!

I will make sure that my dear wife who is a public school music teacher sees this, as our district is probably 99% white(clearly racist) and maybe she can teach some of her classes to do this too- feel the love!

I just had to leave a post on the real clear politics website where I first viewed this child abuse even though I doubt that those posts or comments are ever seen, but this stuff just makes me want to throw up in my mouth a little, so I’m re posting my comment here. Dear President Obama, I am sure that you had no knowledge of such a shameful thing going on in our country. I mean with you being the all knowing, all seeing, able to walk on water,leader that you are. Could you please come out and denounce this indoctrination of our children and make some heads roll at the school that is doing this. If you keep allowing this to happen all over our country, there are some people out there that may begin to believe that maybe you actually are aware of these things and that you must actually be a racist, marxist, dummy. It’s bad enough that it seems that you are intellectually spent and have used up every tactic that you have been taught by your “early 20th century progressive” mentors and have not been able to fullfil your dreams of the one world utopian rainbow land and that now the whole world looks at you as our red headed step child of a leader but please dont try to take our kids down the same path. We are, or I guess I should say that I am humbly asking you to reconsider the decision that you have made to try to lead the greatest nation on earth and to just pass it on to somebody more qualified that will not embarrass us anymore than you already have.
Just pick a name out of the phonebook, anyone else would do. Best Regards Mr President, Rich Carter

well she picked the wrong kid to ask, didn’t she. HA

They were better during the primary. This would not be bad, had they left out the You Lie comment.

Thanks for the update on this one AP… That Willie is quite the bright one… hopefully, he rubs off on the other kids.

Sounds like Willie knows who his daddy is though. At the least someone on the home front is schooling him right.

This kid might someday be doing a duo with Zo.

Is Willie Zo’s little brother?

Lighten up folks, and enjoy.
This is not very partisan at all, and kind of fun.

For another, rewriting the lyrics to Miley Cyrus’s new song is more creative than the usual fare.

That was a ripoff of Miley Cyrus? Sounded more like a ripoff of the Brady Bunch doing "Sunshine Day." The dance steps were the same too. Greg Brady would be proud.
