Anti-Obama Shirt Gets 5th Grader Suspended

The 5th grader, according to the school, "...was not suspended for wearing the shirt, but for willful disobedience and defiance". He was told to take the shirt off or turn it inside out. He refused. We all know what would happen if this was a "anti-McCain" or "anti-Bush" shirt...NOTHING.

The family is planning to sue the school district, which they should. The shirt isn't even a false statement. Just look at Obama's good buddy Bill Ayers.

An 11-year-old in Aurora says his first amendment rights are being trampled after he was suspended for wearing a homemade shirt that reads "Obama is a terrorist's best friend."

The fifth grader at Aurora Frontier K-8 School wore it on a day when students were asked to wear red, white and blue to show their patriotism.

The boy's father Dann Dalton describes himself as a "proud conservative" who has taken part in some controversial anti-abortion protests. Dalton says the school made a major mistake by suspending his son for wearing the shirt.
