    Va. middle-schoolers assigned opposition research on GOP candidates
    Virginia middle school teacher recently forced his students to support President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign by conducting opposition research in class against the Republican presidential candidates.

    The 8th grade students, who attend Liberty Middle School in Fairfax County, were required to seek out the vulnerabilities of Republican presidential hopefuls and forward them to the Obama campaign.

    “This assignment was just creepy beyond belief — like something out of East Germany during the Cold War,” one frustrated father, who asked for his family to remain anonymous, told The Daily Caller.

    The assignment was for students to research the backgrounds and positions of each of the GOP candidates for president and find “weaknesses” in them, the parent explained. From there, students were to prepare a strategy paper to exploit those weaknesses and then to send their suggestions to the Obama campaign.

    How horrible!!!! I would be so angry at that school district, that teacher and anyone else that would tolerate this. How dare a teacher 'force' his/her students to think critically!

    :rolleyes:

    Yes, it is just like that.

    I feel bad for the human race that the person who said that was allowed to breed. He's why pro-choicers are pro-choice.

    What does Obama have to do with this story?

    I do have a problem with the teacher doing this.

    But then you wouldn't be here. Because I had coitus with your mother that led to your birth.

    Wait, so you're right. :(

    Actually only one member.

    Well, not even one member. It is hilarious though that for Democrats, no matter what the issue is, it always comes down to abortion. And note the poster in question essentially wanted the parent of this child dead. I regret that I lowered myself to his level.

    I think their real problem here is that the current GOP crop's weaknesses are discernible by school children, and the that their unsolicited help is cause for concern among the base.

    In fairness, I did make an abortion joke about some guy I've never met who just compared this assignment to living in East Germany during the Cold War. Key word, joke.

    I interpreted this "joke" as meaning that the parent should have been aborted. An alternative interpretation would have been that the parent should not have reproduced. In that scenario it would have been the student who would have been aborted. Either way, was not funny to me.
