Are we that paranoid as a society that we can't trust the President to speak to our kids, or are we that dumb?

I can't help but think there's some racist undertones with all of this "outrage".

Stop with the stupid race card that the left plays anytime someone does not agree with Obama. It was the stupid lesson plan he wanted the kids to do to help HIM which was out before they released his speach 4 or 5 days later. Did I think Obama was going to push healthcare reform on the kids? I don't think he was going to push the healthcare thing but the lesson plan to help Obama seems fishy to me. After all the fuss they had plenty of time to review and change his speech so we will never know what he was going to say before the fuss. If Bush did this the left would have flipped if he wanted to ask kids to write an essay on how to help him. I actually don't think it was that much outrage just what was there was all over the news.
