Messiah Watch: School on Long Island changes name to "Barack Obama Elementary" (hat tip Doug)
ABC News' Matt Jaffe Reports:
A New York elementary school has been re-named in honor of President-elect Barack Obama. Ludlum Elementary School in Long Island's Hempstead Union Free School District was re-named at a board meeting Thursday, at the request of numerous school students."Just to watch these kids after the board voted on what they asked them to do, they were so elated," school district superintendent Dr. Joseph Laria told ABC News. "You want to talk about "Yes we can!"? That was a lesson in democracy."
Effective immediately, Ludlum will now be known as Barack Obama Elementary School, following a decision by the board to adopt the resolution drafted by students and staff.
Ugh









Pardon me while I go barf.

grrreaaaaaat, now they can get illegal funding from gaza, learn voter intimidation tactics, 'get in their faces' and memorize the speeches of wright,farrakhan as well as learn the ideas of ayers.
ah, america, what a country.
will the learn how to stutter and lie too? how about experiment with drugs? 'stand with the muslims'??
it's the most amazing hoodwink that's ever been perpetrated on america..and just try to stand up against it: you get beaten down, verbally or physically.
i think this is bringing out the worst in america not the best. dividing us, not uniting us. smearing the best of america while lauding the worst.
unfreakinbeleiveable.

This is only the beginning of our country becoming a 3rd world hell hole. I probably, and hope, will not be alive long enough for me to see it. My nieces and their children? Well, they already have been brainwashed.

They are working feverishly on renaming a school out here in Portland,Oregon also. the virus is spreading.

I can see the renaming of schools' athletic teams now: The "Yeswecans" and the "Jugears". Well, the "Yeswecans" anyway.

But this is all a symptom of where our culture has gone, not just BHO. Have you been in a position to hire anybody lately? Resumes from so many of the GenX type kids are SO THIN. In their worlds, just having a certain position is proof of competence for whatever new position they are seeking. They get the "deer in the headlights" look when you ask them "what did you achieve?" instead of "what were your responsibilities?" So, in the case of BHO, even though he authored nothing while leading the Harvard Law Review, even though he voted "present" dozens of times as an Illinois state senator, and even though he wrote no legislation in the US Senate, just the fact that he had these job titles "proves" for the sheeple anyway that he is intelligent and competent and experienced enough to be POTUS.

Whose paying for the changes? i.e. new sign, letterheads, everything will need to be updated. I thought the schools were hurting for cash. And for what? In honor of the first black man to get elected president? Is this his accomplishment? We obviously don't know how he will do as president, he hasn't even been sworn in yet for pete's sake. So it all comes down to the color of his skin. Funny how the liberals consistently play that card yet accuse conservatives of racism! It all makes me sick.

Well, another school down the toilet.

America is world famous for its celebrity-heavy culture ("cult" would be a better world we think). Remember Marilyn? Or the thousands of others too numerous to mention.
So, now we have a person who is truly unqualified to so much as be a political decision-maker let alone president of the United States--but who is nonetheless a celebrity world wide and who got elected POTUS. Although it is certainly true that he's a leftist (ugh) his popularity clearly overrides this. The media loves the guy (and his pecs, too).
Thus we can see that BHO's political ascendancy had roots that lie within our very own culture. Somehow we need to marshall the courage up to face up to it and decide how we wish to tackle it. The seeds of America's destruction have been with us all along (celebrity worship).We have to do SOMETHING about it.
BHO's presidency will almost certainly crash and burn. If and when it does, Americans will have to realize they did it to themselves as they contemplate the ashes.

And let's keep it that way!

Seriously...I know the guy is president-elect...but he HASN'T DONE ANYTHING. He could even bring about real, productive change in small neighborhoods. He associates with terrorists and radicals. He is a known liar. And now he has a school named after him. I wonder how much more of this crap we'll see in the next 4 years...

Didn't we get this in Nazi Germany ? Schools falling over themselves to rename themselves 'Adolf Hitler Academies' etc etc.
This is frightening ! We appear to be moving into a phase of a (to use N Khruschev's immortal words) 'cult of the personality'.
A free Press is meant to protect against a dictatorship of the Right or of the Left. Seems to me the American Press is letting the US down badly on all this. In fact it seems to me that all that stupid idiot King George 3rd needed to do back in the 1770's was to hire a good PR agency to get himself some positive newspaper headlines particularly in Boston and get the idea into print that Washington and all his cronies were 'fruitcakes' and 'divas'. You would still be our colony if he had done the 'correct' thing !!

I am soooo glad you posted this!! When I heard it on the news at first I thought it was satire. Then I saw it in the paper. I think I was in so much shock at the STUPIDITY of it -- the cognitive dissonance was too much.
I wonder if these people have the Obama Commerative Coin and the Obama Plate hanging in the main office?
