(and yesterday my friend 'm' and i got into it with our boss. he said kids should NOT have watched obama's speech-and get the reason why-because it would cut into their educational time. yes, he really did say that and yes, he's a fairly intelligent man too. i was shouting at him-hey it was early and no one else was around. 'm' was calm but not me. what sort of bullshite is that? isn't a half hour out of a student's day AT LUNCH TIME educational if they are going to listen to the president of the united states of america? won't it perhaps get them a might interested in politics, how this country is run???? 'k' on this one YOU'RE FULL O' SHITE)
School refuses Obama speech, but will bus kids to see Bush
-John Byrne
A Texas school which refused to air President Barack Obama's live classroom address is planning to bus students to see the president.
Did school officials reverse course after realizing Obama's speech wasn't political, as conservatives had claimed? Nope. They're sending fifth graders to see another president: former President George W. Bush, and his wife, Laura. Bush is speaking alongside several Dallas Cowboys players and prominent Texas business leaders.
"District officials said it's part of a Cowboys Stadium field trip that the North Texas Super Bowl Host Committee invited 28 fifth-grade classes to attend several months ago," a local NBC affiliate wrote Wednesday morning. "The event launches the Super Bowl committee's largest-ever youth education program. Students must have their parents' permission to attend, school officials said.".........
