I suppose it was too much to ask that a thread about an Obamanimatronic (yes, I've just coined that phrase) wouldn't become an off-topic political trainwreck.

I don't think it is off topic. Plenty of people trying to derail it but that is failing.

It is not a thread about the robot, it is about the fact Obama will be speaking, which implies content, which is what the thread is mostly about.

I don't see the problem:shrug:

I assume they will conclude the show with the Battle Hymn of the Republic? I hope they use the 1964 world's fair rendition used in Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, also used in the 1971-1993 version of HoP; it's also the same one they use in IllumiNation's 4th of July Tag. I'm not a big fan of the 1993-2008 version of Battle Hymn. :lookaroun

I have a feeling everytime Mom opens this thread, she makes this face ( :zipit: )

Yes, old Battle Hymn is lovely. Especially set to fireworks.:D

I have always been of a mind that the current President shouldn't speak in HoP. But since they are going to do it I think Obama would be better suited to give a speech about the American spirit and progress instead of the oath. Especially considering the problems with his first go around with it. I think the oath should be part of the show but should either be given by Washington because he was the first or have it read as a group by all the Presidents. I am really looking forward to hearing Lincoln's speech and what they will have Washington say. I also really like the idea of M.F. doing the narration.

I know what you mean, but it can be used in such a bipartisan way. It also keeps the HoP very fresh, and very new, something that's needed for a attraction like that.

This is an on-topic WDW forum with rules and regulations, ran by someone from Great Britain. Don't wave your supposed civil liberties in everyone's faces because you're determined to derail a non-political discussion.

Just an FYI. This is a privately owned, moderated forum that is open to the public. The fact that it is moderated means that there is a certain level of censorship. This is in place as to try to make this forum as comfortable as possible for the greatest number of posters. Certain topics usually result in heated, hateful arguments, so are not allowed. Politics is just one of many things that people just can't seem to discuss without eventually throwing insults around.

Anyone has the right to say whatever he or she wants, but we also have the right to say that we will not allow it here. There are lots of unmoderated political forums out there, where you will be welcome to air your opinions.
