The US is strange. Army recruiters on campus, the JROTC doing a military routine with the flag before school performances, a daily pledge of allegiance to the flag and Republic for all school children (Edit: except those who don't want to, of course - don't wanna give the wrong impression here

)...
...and it's a regular Presidential address that gets everyone up in arms about "political indoctrination"?
It's a Presidential address, one of many. Far as I recall, several Norwegian PM's have addressed children, and no one has raised an eyebrow so far. It's not as if he's going to make the speech all about how everyone has to vote for him come 2012.

I remember when I lived in the States. Bush was in command and the nation had no debt. It never rained, either, and there were no tigers. Then Obama came along and invented the Economic Crisis and Poverty and now everything is in shambles.
