And the indoctrination beat goes on — but at least we now see it happening

The conservative internet is appropriately riled by a video of New Jersey public school children singing a song to the Obama:
Lyrics
========
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
He said that all must lend a hand [?]
To make this country strong again
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
He said we must be clear today
Equal work means equal pay
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
He said that we must take a stand
To make sure everyone gets a chance
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
He said Red, Yellow, Black or White
All are equal in his sight
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
Yes
Mmm, mmm, mm!Barack Hussein Obama
For people raised in a democracy, and raised on songs about “the land of the free,” seeing a Dear Leader song is deeply, deeply disturbing. Democracies are not supposed to celebrate individuals in that way, since the worship of an individual is one of the first steps in the march to a statist system. (It’s funny, when you think about, but “statist” systems are invariably focused on demagogues, rather than the state itself.)
That we are seeing these videos and are able to be so incensed about them is actually a good thing. The misuse of public schools and the indoctrination of children have always been part of the Democratic/Progressive playbook. The problem for ordinary Americans is that they didn’t see it. Thanks to the internet, however, and thanks to the increased confidence Leftists feel now that one of their own is the White House, the rock has been lifted and a spotlight is shining on all of the Left’s nasty little secrets. Americans no longer drift along unaware of what’s going on. It’s in their faces and, I suspect, critical masses of them will resent and resist.

Bookworm,
Thanks for posting the transcript: it was hard to make out everything they were chanting. This is very scary and creepy because it reminds me of this:

Eric.
Didn’t they steal this line from “Jesus Loves The Little Children”?
They did steal it, Quisp, and a lot of Christians I know were mighty upset.
@Quisp (love Quisp, liked Quake) Didn’t they steal this line from “Jesus Loves The Little Children”?
Yes, and worse. The dangerous moron that is perpetrating this sort of indoctrination on our nation’s children inserted Obama’s name in place of God.

But Obama can make the waters recede, like the recent floods we had in the south east. Why isn’t he God?
