Indoctrination or...
 

Childrens book producers rush to get Obama books out.

Is this indoctrination or just supply and demand?

Bit of both, I believe. Perhaps they should wait to write the books until after we know what kind of Prez he is.

Kids are not enthralled by Obama's story, adults are enthralled in making money off of this. Look at the inaugural day....get a coffee mug, t-shirt, cap, mouse pad, doll, stickers, flags with Obama on it. It looked like the outside of a football stadium on game day. Granted it is a very interesting story inclusive of media and the campaign coverage, definitely a defining moment in history but...come on, kids are enthralled?

Oh for goodness sake.....:yawn:

I'm not sure there is much point indoctrinating the young to like someone they can never vote for.

To start them down the path?

I dont remember, was there any rush to print "See George run" books?

You don't see the difference? :yawn:

No, could you spell it out for me?

I don't have a problem with this at all unless these books become mandatory in schools.

H-A-C-K.

Bush is a former oil man/baseball team owner with a Father who was head of the CIA and POTUS. He got involved in the family business.

Obama is the son of an Immigrant, the first African American President of the United States. His is a fascinating,and uncomparable story. (see book sales).

There's something very Rush Limbaugh-ish about your disdain of anything Obama. (not suprising, given that Rush owns Republicans, it seems). Are you foolish enough to think that publishers are mass producing books in order to indoctrinate children? Or is it possible that that easiest explanation, that people find Obama's story an inspiring one for children and adults alike, is true?

Your getting incredibly boring, Mousewake.

You know your right..

Bush had a buisness background from "Big Oil" and good deal of experience with the CIA and other political establishments.

The other is a former 'activist' pop culture icon.

Yes I see the difference now.

Im sure the book publishers are interested in profits first, that is after all what keeps them in buisness. I hope they make tons of money from the sales of the books so the federal goverment can tax them out of existance.

I never once implied that their ulterior motive was to indoctrinate children, that was the articles inference. The anchor post asked for opinions.

But there is no question in my mind that the popular media at large is enamord with Obama and are falling over one another to prop him up.

I have nothing agains Obama himself. No what I dislike is the fact that he lies to the american people, presents himself as the saviour, a centrist, yet he is none of the above.

Heres an opinion piece from Fox news about the 5 top 'promises' by the chosen one which were broken. Certainly consider the source but I challange our liberal friends out there to debunk any of these 'facts'.

Down the path to what?

it can't really be down the path to voting for Obama unless he runs for office in 2025.


I mean, it is more than a little weird, but I'm not sure if it can be called indoctrination if there isn't some kind of desired resultant behavior.

Which part is inspiring? I find none of it inspiring. Are you getting shivers up your leg:06: Come to think of it, I do not know anyone who finds his story inspiring. They like him but inspired? No.

This is just another cash grab. Not indoctrination.-shrug- Things do not pick up this book as well has all the other goodies will be on the $1.00 table at the local church bazaar.

You have nothing against Obama, except he's a liar, and you started a thread about indoctrinating children with books about him, and then posted 5 broken campaign promises. :har: Say it with me...Mouse! Mouse!
The "other" is the President of the United Sates. He was also a Senator, and a community organizer. While that title may be funny to you and Sarah Palin, it's nothing short of a grass roots, royalty free level of organizing people in a specific community to act in their own self interest. Sure, that's worth belittling isn't it....
Read the title of this thread. Watch the mouse spin....

...and in the same post you supply an article from the popular media claiming 5 broken promises from Obama. :hmmm:


:yawn:

No he doesn't. Inconvenient for your spin, I know. But he doesn't.

Per the article, you again make the mistake of thinking that liberals run around thinking Obama can do no wrong, which if you were paying attention to anything liberal writers are saying about Obama, is not true. And The presidency is what, a month or so old? :haha:

Interesting that a month in, the right all of a sudden learns the word "liar". It's laughable, given recent history.....

Well, lots of people find it inspiring that a man from his background and race can aspire to be President. It's not like his story isn't unique. He's the first African American President. African Americans couldn't even eat in the same restaurants as white people 40 years ago....:-?
