If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

The Obama Administration is Fostering a Cult Of Personality

In the past few days, a video has surfaced on YouTube.com showing young school children chanting in praise off the sitting President. Addtionally, the principal of the school in New Jersey, has stated on FoxNews that she would encourage her teachers to continue this kind of indoctrination of very young children.

This is deeply troubling to me as this administration has begun to show a history of heavy propagandizing. Mr. Obama's adminsitration has begun to use Federal agencies that were meant to be be non-patisan National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to further his political agenda. Further, 28 individuals and organizations who participated in the NEA conference call, within 2 days came out with advertising campaigns and slogans to support Mr. Obama's political agenda were in the past week approved for several million dollars in "stimulus" funds.

When you throw in the blatant indoctrination going on in elementary schools (the school in NJ is merely one who was caught) it brings to light a VERY troubling aspect of this administration. It is developing a vertible "cult of personality", wherein The One is the fount of all goodness (see his UN speech) and the GOP is representative of pure evil.
