Only thing notable is there was a camera - probably happens thousands of places around the country. We know how tolerant liberals are. But ... since there was a camera present: Update on child-abusing Obama teacher: Superintendent responds By Michelle Malkin • November 7, 2008 01:36 PM The superintendent of the school where child-abusing Obama supporter Diatha Harris teaches has posted a statement on his district’s website. He is investigating. (Thanks to Pat at BelchSpeak, who first called attention to the appalling video of Harris bullying the daughter of a soldier for supporting John McCain). Here is the statement: CCS Headline News - Superintendent’s Response to YouTube I was shocked when I saw the clip of an interaction between a Cumberland County Schools teacher and her students as posted on YouTube. While neutral discussion of the political process is appropriate, at no time, particularly with elementary students, should a teacher infuse his/her political views into the discussion. Most disconcerting was the military slant that made its way into this discussion. We are a military community, serving over 15,000 military students and their families. We value the sacrifices, not only of the military parents but also those of their families. We believe that military children are our children, military spouses are many of our employees, and military service men and women are our heroes. We proudly serve our military children and have received national awards for our support of military families. I was particularly disturbed to see the uncomfortable position in which our children were placed due to the inappropriate actions of one of our teachers. Please be assured that the actions exhibited in this video are not consistent with the vision of the CCS. Moreover, the actions of one teacher do not represent the 7000 employees in our organization. Once the video was brought to my attention, I immediately launched an investigation. Personnel laws prevent me from releasing information regarding individual employees and personnel action taken. I can assure you that upon completion of the investigation, I will take appropriate action. Dr. William Harrison CCS’ Superintendent michellemalkin.com

This woman is a terrorist, and had that little girl almost in tears. The little boy sitting next to her obviously doesn't have a kind bone in his body. The teacher should be fired, and if I were the parent of that girl, I'd find some way to punish the teacher and the district in court.

Democrats who supported Obama probably believe that kind of education is good for America. After all, we need to begin the indoctrination at some point. Remember the school children singing the Obama song that was a big hit during the campaign? This is just an extension of the mentality involved. While liberals worry about a prayer being said in school, or heaven forbid the Pledge of Allegiance including the term "Under God", this kind of indoctrination happens all the time across the country. I wouldn't be surprised if the Teachers Union mandated that kind of behavior in their bylaws. And with the money they pour into the Democrat party, they could probably pass legislation to support it.
