What happened? I'm feeling frisky today! LOL.
And yes, the loyalty pledge is a referring to the written promise to "help Obama". You can't believe that the left would have sat quietly by while George W. Bush gave a secret speech to America's kids, and then required them to write about how they'll "help George Bush". There would have been outrage.
Now, a few questions from me... what do you think of those videos? Had you seen them during the election, or are they new to you now? Do you see how that kind of creepy indoctrination might fuel the worry of parents? Do you, in fact, see them as at all creepy or troubling and a cult of personality, or do you see it as innocent patriotism?

The president had nothing to do with the kids singing that creepy song. That's the fundamental difference with N. Korea. If one of the American kids would have messed up there would have been a retake. If one of the N. Korean kids messed up...
Promise? What promise? Ooh? There was a secret speech? When? I would like to more.
That video of school children singing to Obama was new to me. I hadn't seen it before you posted it. I think it is creepy but also know the Obama campaign had nothing to do with it, so what can I say? There are nuts on all sides.
