Parents Livid After Middle School Plays Video of Celebrities Who ‘Pledge’ Support for

[Jeff]

This is disgusting , these people make millions of dollars making movies but that doesn't give them the right to do trash like this, they ought to keep there politics to them selves .





The Hudson Wisconsin School District has issued an apology for using an “I Pledge” YouTube video, featuring Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, at the middle school’s Peace One Day event on Wednesday, Sept. 25. The school district said messages about serving President Obama may have been offensive to some students, families and staff. In the video, Red Hot Chili Peppers lead singer Anthony Kiedis says, “I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama,” and Demi Moore finishes by saying, “I pledge to be a servant to our president.” One parent’s reaction was that it reminded her of “A little 1940′s Germany.

Gaffer. As much as I totally agree with you. I do have some refreshing news to share with you, and others here.
This problem is more on the shoulders of Principals, and Teachers...who support Obama due to their Union affiliations.

But...truth is. The KIDS. Yes. I said "THE KIDS" are actually much smarter than the teachers, and the school admin when it comes to Obama.

I have learned...from four grandchildren...all of whom attend schools. They follow the teachers orders, but...generally. The kids DO NOT LIKE OBAMA. Since...they tend to listen to their Parents.
Oddly enough. The children with only one parent...naturally are more in Obama's pocket due to their poor background, dependency on Govt. and sadly. But honestly. Their skin color.
Anyone who doesn't like hearing the truth. Dislikes being told the Honest facts. So, there's nothing more to be said for them.

Wisconsin District Comes Under Fire After Showing Kids Pro-Obama Video
Controversy arose last week at a Wisconsin middle school after administrators showed students a video of celebrities expressing support for President Barack Obama (http://www.myfoxtwincities.com/story/23548188/hudson-school-district-apology-peace-one-day-video), according to local outlet KMSP-TV.
Administrators at Hudson Middle School showed the 2009 video in recognition of Peace One Day, an annual international day for peace. While the video features a slew of stars pledging to do good deeds, Red Hot Chili Peppers front man Anthony Kiedis and actress Demi Moore also pledge to be of service to the president.
According to KMSP, the clip offended some local residents. One woman who viewed the video on camera compared it to propaganda from 1940s Germany.
Soon after, the district issued a letter of apology, saying using the video “was a mistake.” (http://www.hudson.k12.wi.us/www/district_hudson/site/hosting/district/administration/MRPeaceOneDaySept2013.pdf) The note reads, in part:

We apologize for any part of the video that was offensive to students, their families and staff. The video conveyed a message that people serve the presidency when in fact our elected officials serve the people. We respect the Office of the President of the United States but like all of our other elected officials, that office serves each of us as well.
Shortly after the video's 2009 release, a principal in Utah also came under fire for showing it to elementary school children (http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_13249171?_requestid=5883011).




Bolded is my add on. It's not about the Presidency, it's about Obama.
