With yet another video of school kids singing the praises of Barack Obama, thought it would be nice to look back at some of the other videos out there we may have forgotten or missed.
First, this new release comes to use from an elementary school in Burlington, NJ where these young citizens share their own personal feelings about “Barack Hussein Obama” without any coaching from their teachers:
Next up, probably the most famous of the Obama kids videos. If this one doesn’t bring a tear to your eyes you just do not have a heart:
This one doesn’t have a real catchy tune, but it certainly rocks:
More inspirational music for your listening and viewing pleasure:
And of course, we must not forget the First Lady by his side:
The hits just keep coming:
In every language, the message is the same:
What more can we say… in the past, we sang praises to our nation. We lived in a naive patriotic world. Now we know that it is not about the nation, it is not about us, it is about Barack Hussein Obama. He has come to save the world.

So much funnier when Stewart is going after the other guys…
Would be funnier if it was so infuriating that ACORN is spending our money to fund potentially illegal activities.
Want to know what’s really sad… seeing this on The Daily Show is probably the first time many Americans are even hearing about this since the MSM has their heads in the sand (or more accurately up someones you-know-what).

Some sentimental oldies.
This first clip is from the Fantasticks. Tried to find one of Jerry Orbach’s wonderful rendition but came across this version and was very impressed with this young man’s voice.
Time to remember the kind of September…
Charlie Chaplin penned this tune that reminds us to smile through the toughest of times.
Sung by the great Nat King Cole, Smile…
And finally, from Bye Bye Birdie, a reminder that gray skies are gonna clear up…
We are in some tough times and they may even get tougher before they get any easier, but we will make it through if we continue to focus on the things that made this country great and resist any attempt to limit our freedom or restrict our God-given rights:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Haven’t had a movie night in a long time. Tonight we remember someone who just passed this week.
Elle Greenwich wrote many of the great pop songs of the early 60’s that will bring back some memories for those of us fortunate enough to be around back then:
Rest in Peace Elle…
