so you agree that this teacher should be fired?..

No. I'm just saying that if we start doing such a thing it must be done across the board. No prayer, no teaching of biblical history or religious endorsements what so ever within a public school environment. Including benedictions before sporting events, etc.

Why are you so afraid of this man?
How is this any different than a school play about George Washington? Washington was the first president, Obama is the first black president.

I will.  Washington was an Aristocrat who thought people like you aren't educated enough to participate in the electorate, and he thought you never would be (on that he was right).  So, he thought the Aristocrats should run the country and not allow you to elect anything but.  He was also a liar and a dishonest traitor to his friends in the Revolution; the Iroquois.
He was the Donald Trump of his day, not as smart as the rest (like Jefferson who you owe your vote to).

Obama?  I still don't know how well he will do.  Too early, yet you will never give him credit for anything; a black man.

He's right about Washington. I enjoy reading biographies and have been through all of the presidents, with exception to the last two, a couple times. Washington was a self-serving snob.

I don't think PH compared Obama to Washington. He compared circumstances and it's a good point.
