Friday, September 25, 2009 The Burlington Township School District in New
Jersey is no stranger to
political controversy.
The district, which is being criticized for a video that shows elementary
school students singing President Obama's praises, drew howls in March 2007
when
it hosted an "emergency management exercise" at Burlington Township High
School.
The purpose of the mock terror drill, according to a statement released by
township officials, was to "evaluate the response and mitigation procedures" of
police, fire and emergency medical services. But conservatives were incensed
that the district invented a fictional right-wing fundamentalist group it
called
the "New Crusaders" for the exercise.
Syndicated columnist Michelle
Malkin and other bloggers criticized emergency management officials at the
time for allegedly singling out right-wing Christian fundamentalists.
Township officials later apologized for any "insensitivities" raised.
"The scenario chosen was intended to be generic in nature and never to offend
any group, affiliation or religious belief," township officials said in a
written statement. "The term 'Christian' was not included in the scenario. It
was believed that all groups pray, and prayer in school is a universal issue.
Similarly it is further believed that all groups experience right-wing
fundamentalists in their organizations."
The statement continued, "The bottom line was the protection of human life
should a significant event unfold. That goal was met."
Several calls to District Superintendent Christopher Manno and to Liz Scott,
a spokeswoman for the district, were not returned Friday.
Meanwhile, the commissioner of New Jersey's Department of Education, Lucille
Davy, ordered a review on Friday after the video of the children praising Obama
was posted on YouTube and drew media attention.
In a statement to FOXNews.com, Education Department spokeswoman Beth
Auerswald said Davy has directed the school's superintendent to review the
matter. Auerswald said Davy wants to ensure that students can celebrate Black
History Month without "inappropriate partisan politics in the classroom."
"In addition, it is our understanding the teacher in question retired at the
end of the last school year," the statement continued.
Auerswald declined to indicate exactly what the review would entail or
possible ramifications. As critics of the video claimed it amounted to
"indoctrination," the tension at B. Bernice Young Elementary School escalated
to
such a degree that the school was placed temporarily on lockdown after its
principal received death threats.
The video of the students at the Burlington, N.J., school shows them singing
songs seemingly overflowing with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack
Hussein
Obama," repeatedly chanting the president's name and celebrating his
accomplishments, including his "great plans" to "make this country's economy
No.
1 again."
One song that the children were taught quotes directly from the spiritual
"Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's:
"He said red, yellow, black or white/All are equal in his sight. Barack Hussein
Obama."
RUSH: I mean some of these kooks think it's good. They're laughing at him.
Khadafy thinks it's great that such a lunatic is running the country. We're
weaker. The Iranians love it. The Russians love it. Obama is before our very
eyes weakening the country. I haven't seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Now,
I've tried to watch it a couple times. Everybody said you ought to watch it
because it's practical jokes, it's right up your alley. I tried to watch it a
couple times, it didn't grab my interest, but that's a great line. You can't
respect somebody who kisses your butt. You said ass, but I'm host, I do not
lower the standards of my own show, callers can but I won't. The only time I
say ass is talking about Hillary's being too big to fit in a military uniform.
But that's a true philosophy. In my own life, you can spot people that are
brown nosers or suck up to you, and you don't respect them. And here's Obama,
he's out kissing these lunatics' butts and they're not going to respect him.
He doesn't understand why they like him. He thinks they like him because he's
a fellow academic, finally got a smart guy, hated Bush, hate the war in Iraq,
hate American imperialism. They like him because he doesn't like the country
either just like they don't and the weaker America is the better off for them,
that's what they all think, and he's fulfilling their desire, only he doesn't
see that.
CALLER: Right. Rush, I'm a flight attendant. I'm appalled that they let
someone come into this country and respect him, Khadafy, who supports people
blowing me out of the sky. I'm appalled at that also. So I just wanted to
give you those two points.
RUSH: I appreciate that. You know, that is also a good point. It wasn't very
long ago they let the Lockerbie bomber out, the Brits did, and he goes home to
a hero's welcome, and Khadafy's kid is on the plane taking him back to Libya
and there's a big cheer for the guy when he gets off the airplane and Khadafy
shows up and speaks for 90 minutes today, gets some applause -- Craig, did you
hear me say that he demanded a new investigation of the JFK assassination?
Because the Jews were behind it. We gotta find out, the Israelis were behind
it. He also said don't worry about the swine flu. Fish flu is coming.
All right, who's next? We've got time for one more before the break. Tawana
in Atlanta, nice to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.
