Such neocons as Joe Scarborough and Newt Gingrich are praising Obama’s kid speech as non-partisan and non-political. But these presidential supremecists are helping disguise the talk’s true nature. It is intended to exalt the presidency, the locus of almost all evil in the US government. The fact that the children are conscripted into the state indoctrination centers, and parents and other taxpayers are conscripted into paying for these hyper-expensive propaganda factories, make anything to do with the public schools political, and partisan, not in the sense of state party A vs. state party B, but in the sense of the state vs. society.
