Comment: Any time there is a personal choice involved, schools should remain neutral. from baltimore md by kenneth
Comment: Our children shouldn't be indoctrinated with political songs about a politician. This NJ teacher and the other administrators should have known better. If John McCain had won they would have been horrified at these children glorifying a Republican president from Glen Burnie by James
Comment: This should be resolved by the local school board and/or the courts, not by the prejudices you Fox's right-wing viewers who do not believe in a country of laws. from Baltimore, MD by Steve

Comment: The Hitler Youth pledged fielty to Hitler, not their country of Germany. It's one thing to honor someone's accomplishments, but "Barack Hussein Obama, Mm, Mmm, Mmm" hasn't accomplished anything but political division. from Reisterstown by Harry
Comment: the teacher had no business transferring her affection for president obama onto her students. those kids are too young to understand the the context of the song. parents should have been notified first; after all, it's almost a given that not all of those students' parents voted for obama.

Comment: It reminded me of video you would see from North Korea or anyother communist or fascist state. This is the cult of personality. This principal needs to be removed from her job immediately from Westminster by Bill
Comment: This teacher did not step over the line, she JUMPED! North Korea forces their people to sing songs about the Great Leader and his sons as a form of control. Sounds like this teacher is brainwashing her students to conform to her political views. Also the song was sung to the tune of a religious song, a double no no. The teacher should be fired immediately. from Westminster, MD by Jim

Comment: What's next? A song for public option health care? from Pasadena, Md. by Tony
Comment: Now if she had done one for George Bush or even Bill Clinton during White History Month we may be a little more forgiving. When will we see painting, photos and murals of Obama through out the cities and town? from Catonsville by Dan
Comment: That is the kind of thing that takes place in dictatorships. Then again a lot of things under this president have never happened in this country before. from Glen Burnie, Md. by Joseph
