Children For Obama Video Sparks Criticism

A music teacher in California invited about 20 of her students to a private residence to film the children singing a pro-Obama song.

At first this video was posted on Obama’s own website some time last year. Then it made its way to YouTube and that’s when all the protests began. So Obama took the video off his site.

Why all the anger and protests, you ask?

Well, from what I can gather, some kooks on YouTube seized upon the opportunity to compare this video with the Nazi propaganda videos featuring the Hitler Youth singing Hitler’s praises in the 1940s.

Maybe the intense scrutiny surrounding the video is due to the deception involved in the making of the video.

The video was intended to simulate an amateur video of children spontaneously breaking out into song. But in the fairness of disclosure, the Obama camp posted all the names of the crew involved in shooting the video. It turns out there were 22 crew members in all (not including the children).

Not only that, but the “private residence” was designed to look like the interior of a classroom. Critics point out that the video had the feel of a big-budget production paid for by….

As a result of the vicious attacks and hoopla, it is difficult to find the original video on YouTube amid all the Nazi propaganda videos. Oh, and Bill O’Reilly aired this video on his show last night. So expect even more drama.

    I didn’t know people view Bill O Reilly reliable since he probably the most hypocritical man ever.The whole McCain campaign is hypocritical or it might just be FOX news in generally speaking.

    So what’s the difference between Hitler and Obama?None.Hitlar was a dictator of hate.Obama is a man who has a POSITIVE NONVIOLENT vision most of us have.But you know they compared Hitler to those kids who rampaged Columbine too.People will say anything ESPECIALLY ON YOUTUBE.Them crazy nut jobs on there..hell naw.

    Our children, black,white, green or yellow, need something to sing about. After all, we’re going to leave them trillions and trillions of dollars in debt. So sad, so very sad.

    $9,000,000,000,000,000.00

    That’s a lot of freaking money to owe! Peace

    I think you’re right, LovelyLady.
    Maybe if we stop posting on these stories, Sandra will stop posting this nonsense!

    BTW-
    I was sent some very nice pictures from an Obama rally. I sent them to Sandra and asked her to post THOSE. She said she would post a couple, but I see that never happened. :( Biased and Bull!

    I can’t view the video till I get home. But Sandra you use the word “strong woman” a lot and I’m just wondering where I can locate the actual rules on this subject. Its like saying “you’re not a real man” if he has a penis he is a real man.

    & just so you know (as you stated b4 in the Dwanye Wade post) just because a woman doesn’t leave her husband when he cheats does not make her weak. Forgivness is one of the hardest things any human can do and that my dear takes strength.

    A lady @ my job told me she was voting for McCain I wanted to spit in her old white face (I bet you are) but I smiled and said good luck.

    What is spontaneous about them all wearing the same shirt AND doing a routine? How was it made to look like a classroom when there are no desks, chairs, school work hanging on the wall, etc? There is nothing wrong or misleading about that video.
