Wells Hall Off-topic BoardPolitics, Religion, and Social Issues. This board is your pulpit to preach to the masses (like the Wells Hall preacher) about everything from politics to religion. Please be kind to your fellow Spartans. Post as if your family is in the other computer.
Do they let expat whiners into Australia , Canada or New Zeeland?

A video called "Obama Youth - Junior Fraternity Regiment" is a hit on YouTube, but reportedly has caused the suspension of a middle school teacher in Kansas City, Mo. The video, showing children in military uniforms addressing "President Obama" and chanting his "yes, we can" campaign line, has been viewed more than half a million times.
Joyce McGautha, head of the Urban Community Leadership Academy, was quoted by Fox News saying, "People are upset that possibly taxpayer money is being used to support one particular candidate."
She said the charter school's board will rule on the teacher's future, according to Fox.

Why are those kids call obama the alpha and omega? Does it concern anyone else that obama is being refrenced as God. This is obama mania is becoming cult like.

What do you call those people who attend those Palin rallies and cheer when she calls Obama a Terrorist?

This is a step dance video from a black fraternity, hence the greek alphabet. Step dancing is very popular in black fraternity culture. The kids are doing nothing wrong or illegal. They are simply showing their support in an artful way for Obama. (It has also been called stomp dancing)
Stop the overreaction, it makes us look racist and foolish.

Lets see, cheering against obama because Palin questions jis Ayers connection versus chanting that obama is the beginning and the end, the Alpha and Omega, God himself. Yeah that's comparable.

No one will notice that here. The majority of the board is so firmly converted into the cult of Obamessiah, that to question the supreme leader is partisan blasphemy. "You must be a right wing nut" to find fault in anything that BHO says or does. The kool aid has been swollowed & seconds requested. If only the world was so truly black/ white, good/ evil. It would be so much easier to get by. I guess that I envy these people ability to be so naive. I was once that naive too before I learned how the world works. How can I get back to "ignorance is bliss"?
The misunderstanding and fear of African American culture on this board is incredibly sad. Are we really supposed to be afraid of a group of black kids supporting Obama in their own way? I hope we are equally afraid of the neo-nazi white supremacists in this country. I have no doubt which candidate they are supporting.

Race card. Well played. Nobody pointed out the race of the participants until you did.

huh?
Just because many of us support Obama, does not mean we see him as any type of religious figure. Far from it. I acknowledge his shortfalls, but I also don't downgrade him fro being younger and less experienced. I believe him to be smart, patriotic and open minded to solving our problems. I also support his tax policies and foreign policy views.
McCain's policies do nothing for me either economically or socially. His demeanor is also extremely suspect. I think he skirts ethics and uses it as a platform that is false. His pick of Sarah Palin is downright scary and the endorsements that he has asked for and received from guys like Hagee offends me personally.
tuff bob, I completely agree that this charter school should be immediately closed. And to make sure it doesn't happen elsewhere, they should ALL be closed.
