PUCKETT, MS (WLBT) - More complaints from parents who say school officials will not allow students to talk about President-Elect Barack Obama.
Melissa Hayes says teachers at Puckett Attendance Center told her daughters they could not talk about Obama in class or in the hallways.
Her daughters, 15 and 18, told Hayes the principal says students can only mention Obama in history class Hayes says she called the school district to find out why, but did not receive any answers.
WLBT was unable to reach a school official this afternoon.

I hang out on a message board that has people from all over the world. Someone from Australia posted a message to the American users congratulating them on the election. One of the Americans posted that she wasn't happy, because Obama was a Muslim and was sworn in to office on a Quran.
*facepalm*
Really, I'm not surprised. As the saying goes, a lie goes half way 'round the world before the truth has its pants on. It takes a similar amount of time to quash the lie, if ever it can be done.
McCain did one thing in his campaign that I really loved seeing. A woman in an audience said that she was afraid of Obama because he was a Muslim, and McCain took her to task and in front of TV cameras told her that he was an honorable man and was a Christian, not a Muslim.
I really should find that on YouTube and bookmark it.
