The story behind the video of the kids singing keeps getting more curiouser and curiouser. Charisse Carney-Nunes, the author of the children's book I am Barack Obama, has been quoted as saying that the video was done as part of a father's day celebration, and the kids made up the words themselves. First of all, the kids are way overdressed for June. If they are in school at all by the time father's day comes rolling around.
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Someone actually expects me to believe that seven year-olds use the word Doth?
Someone actually expects me to believe that seven year-olds understand the concept of equal pay for equal work?
Someone actually expects me to believe that seven year-olds understand the concept of our economy?
Someone actually expects me to believe that liberals wouldn't be up in arms if their seven year-olds were singing "President Bush your number one"?
If this exercise was truly done in February, it would be an useful exercise to talk about the first black president during black history month and President's day. But talking about him and singing these songs are two totally different things.
Anyone who is justifying this has their head in the sand.
