Brainwashing our kids for Obama, one textbook at a time

I've read a lot of stories about people brainwashing their kids to worship the Obamessiah in songs, dances and parades, but honestly, this one eclipses them all:

My 8th grade son is in an advanced English class at a public middle school here in Racine, Wisconsin. I just found out that my son's new (copyright 2008) Wisconsin - McDougal Littell Literature book has 15 pages covering Barack Obama.

I was shocked - No John McCain, no Hillary Clinton, no George Bush - Just Barack Obama. I'm wondering how it is that Obama's story gets put into an 8th grade literature book? It would be one thing, if it was just the tidbit about his boyhood days, but 15 pages, and they talk about his "Life of Service". Honestly, what has Obama really done to be included in this book? Not only that, but on page 847 there is a photo of Obama at the 2004 Democratic Convention with at least 8 Obama signs in the background! Front & center is an www.obama2004.com sign.

Lots of people are calling this "disturbing," "scary" and "terrifying," and I completely agree. I wouldn't have before. If people want to brainwash their own kids with songs, dances and parades devoted to the Obamessiah, so be it, but to push it on other people's kids through school textbooks? That crosses the line by, oh, about 10 billion steps. No way would these same people sit by and allow their children to be exposed to a school textbook with a section devoted to John McCain and no one else. Heck, you can't even include a picture of President Bush on a display of presidential portraits in some places without people blowing their lids! (We all remember that ridiculously stupid little incident, don't we?)
