[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is outrageous.  I can only imagine the outrage that would be all over the place if the class had been asked to do opposition research only on Obama.   :roll:

Having said that, had the class been allowed to break into groups and pick ANY candidate of any party to research, and there was no part to find out who to send it to in the other party, I would have no problem.  The way this was done was obviously a leftist hack trying to brainwash kids.

We are zoned for Liberty.  Thank goodness my daughter is in the AAP program and won't go there.  I can't believe the school is defending this assignment and that the County is as well.[/quote]

I have to assume you are the OP and are back to try to stir up trouble after your first post garnered no outrage.

Look, the assignemnt was made in mid-January. What was going on in mid-January? Oh, yeah, the Republican primary season had just gotten underway. It was all over the news. The current events were about the REPUBLICANS and not the president. There were still multiple challengers, little known about any of them. Bachmann had just dropped out. Huntsman and Perry might still have been in it (dropped out 1/15 and 1/19 respectively). Obama is a known quantity as an incumbent.

So, I follow the thought process of the teacher and find your unwillingness to give the benefit of the doubt and to leap immediately to your deepest darkest fantasy about indocrination to be patently offensive.  You're basing this on a poorly written Daily Caller article by a freaking INTERN who quoted a chicken-shit single parent anonymously and a single student who was veyr likely that parent's own kid.

No, there's nothing to see here. Move along.
