Brainwashed in New Rochelle

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 5, 2009 12:43 PM

Caution: Tax dollars at work, creating 7-year-old Obama-bots in the New Rochelle, NY school system.

Students at an elementary school in New Rochelle, NY, a largely Democratic suburb of New York City with a City Council and School Board dominated by Democrats, were recently assigned an in-class assignment to color in drawings of Barack Obama to mark the occasion of the inauguration of the 44th President. The drawings depicted Obama in various heroic poses, flags waving in the background, but one drawing went beyond adulation into overt political activity disguised as a pedagogical exercise. The drawing is a campaign button, in the center of a circle Barack Obama is smiling surrounded by another circle with the words “Students for Obama 2008″.

Do public school employees cross the line with this sort of thing?

At least one student objected but her concerns were ignored.

“I was mad”, the second grader told Talk of the Sound. “I wanted McCain to win”.

New Rochelle Superintendent of Schools Richard Organisciak, an Obama supporter, did not respond to emails requesting comment.

Read all about the brainwashing here.

Soon, they’ll be learning the Obama goose-step and singing the O anthem.

Yes, they can.

    Clearly, she’s the child of parents who get it. Wonder how long before social services pays the family a visit?

    By the way, if I had kids color a picture of Jesus at school, I’d be fired.

    Unfortunately, the irony of this would be completely lost on the Obamabots.

    I just don’t understand the cult worship of this guy. The guy is really a nobody.

    To see Americans behaving like this over a political figure is just so disheartening. We used to scratch our heads watching the films of Germans or Chinese. How far we have fallen.

    Ever wonder if our new (usurper) President is a KGB/FSB agent?

    Isn’t this cult of personality around Obama similar to the cult of personality around Vladimir Putin?

    Heroic like Washington crossing the Delaware? Sgt. York bringing in prisoners? Mighty Mouse saving the day?

    Michelle,

    The Cardinal is returning tomorrow morning 77WABC. Imus said, he already proved his point by being on air over a year. Are you going to cover the return of the Cardinal?

    That student drawing looks like a life saver donut. It’s used in swimming pool rescue when people are in danger of drowning. Does that mean Obama is there to save us?

    Obama will lose his credibility very soon. The bloom is already coming off the “rose”. Don’t worry. He will not be a messiah very long…I guarantee it. He is just an ordinary crooked politician from Chicago and more people are getting that every day.

    You’d think these knuckle-draggers, in a school that supposedly teaches history, would see the similarity between their adulation of The B.O. and the same that has been accorded the likes of Mao, Kim, Pol-Pot, Hitler, Castro, Stalin, etc.

    These people are the reason this country is headed for the abyss of socialism.

    In Homewood ill-annoyz they’ve done something similar-had the grade schoolers/middle schoolers draw posters “celebrating” the coronation-and have put them in business windows.
    I just moved back to a nearby city about 2 weeks ago after being elsewhere for almost 3 years.
    I don’t recall Homewood doing anything to celebrate President Bush-of course he wasn’t our new messiah.

    for years liberals called me fascist for being pro traditional values. It is time for this republic to break up, liberals get the west and traditionalists get the east. I’m sick to my stomach already and it isn’t even close to being a month yet.
