Oh, for heaven’s sake:

Barack Obama has thwarted one more election opponent. (ed. note: did he open their divorce records, too?)

A St. Paul elementary school has voted to officially change its name to “Barack and Michelle Obama Service Learning Elementary,” pending approval of the school board.

Webster Magnet Elementary is in its first year of a service learning program, and the school wanted a new name to reflect the shift in focus. The site council, made up of parents and community members, put the Obama name and “Webster Service Learning Elementary” on the ballot.

Students, staff and St. Paul residents were invited to cast ballots Thursday. The Obama name came away with roughly 60 percent of the 854 votes cast.

They did this because the President and First Lady “walk the walk”, whatever the hell that means.

Look, if Obama turns out to be a great president (the way he’s going, he looks like a one-termer), then by all means rename the school after him. But at least wait until he’s done something before doing it.

What’s disturbing is that this isn’t the first school in the country to do this. From page two:

Webster is not the first school in the country to change its name to honor President Obama. Ludlum Elementary School on Long Island in New York decided to name itself “Barack Obama Elementary School” in November, and a handful of schools nationwide have followed suit.

And the left laughs when we say there’s a cult-like following of this guy. He’s pure symbolism and no substance, in that they’re not naming/renaming these schools after him because of anything he’s done, but simply because of what he MIGHT do or become. JFK and the whole “Camelot” b.s. all over again, in other words.
