I thought this type of stuff only happened in Iran.

How cute they replaced Jesus' name with Baraks.

A video posted on YouTube appears to show a New Jersey elementary school class being taught to sing praises of the "great accomplishments" of President Obama.

The video shows nearly 20 young children taught a song overflowing with campaign slogans and praise for "Barack Hussein Obama," repeatedly chanting the president's name and celebrating his accomplishments, including his "great plans" to "make this country's economy No. 1 again."

The video identifies the kids as students at the B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, N.J., with taping taking place last June.

The song quotes directly from the spiritual "Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's: "He said red, yellow, black or white/All are equal in his sight. Barack Hussein Obama."

Among other lyrics, touting a fair-pay bill Obama signed in January: "He said we must be clear today/Equal work means equal pay."

The author of the full lyrics is unknown, but a woman -- possibly a teacher -- can be heard in the beginning of the video correcting and helping a student who has forgotten the words.

The YouTube user who posted the video told FOXNews.com TKTKTK

The office of the superintendent of Burlington Township School District did not provide comment or confirmation to FOXNews.com that the songs were recorded at B. Bernice Young Elementary when contacted by phone Thursday.

The video was originally posted Sept. 6, two days before Obama made an address to the nation's schoolchildren in which he praised the American education system as the best in the world and urged students to stay in school.

"At the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, and the best schools in the world," Obama said.

No wonder public schools have a bad reputation with nonsense like this.

Ba-rack loves the little children
All the children of the world
While his deficits balloon
We'll eat seaweed with a spoon
Ba-rack loves the children of the world...

Insert 'W' in for every 'Barack', sit back, and imagine the sh!tstorm that would ensue. An official school activity, sanctioned by the principal, according to a statement by the school itself. Go figure, the lady that's teaching them and leading them in song is...a former schoolmate of Obama.

And imagine that, the video's been removed from you tube by her. School claims it was a Black History Month lesson, but i'm sure there were no songs about Harriet Tubman or Thurgood Marshall or Frederick Douglass. This principal and class teacher have a lot to answer for, if I'm a parent of a kid in that class.

No, silly. Black History Month is in February - the *shortest* month of the year!Ha!

Even when whitey tries to honor blacks, they find their way to be racist about it. :afro:
