And I’ll bet some of the parents of these kids will be proud.
Ashleigh Jones is feeling the heat of this election year. That’s because the seventh grader at New Smyrna Beach Middle School was called a racist by classmates for wearing a pro-Sarah Palin t-shirt.
Jones is volunteering at the Republican Headquarters in New Smyrna Beach. The Palin t-shirt was a gift from her fellow volunteers.
“Some of the students were calling me racist because I was Caucasian,” she said. “I wanted the Caucasian man to win. And I told them that’s not true. It’s my freedom of speech, it’s my opinion.”
Welcome to the race-baiting, politically-correct, intolerant world of liberal acdemia, Ashleigh.
I am dumbstruck, how is it that we have gotten to this level? Just because I don’t agree with Obama, I am now considered to be racist? I have never agreed with the democratic views that they put forth. Just because Obama comes along I am now considered racist.
I THINK NOT!!!
Is he RACIST because he doesn’t agree with my views, or the views of the other Americans who disagree with him?
“but teachers can wear pro-obama-badges”
But probably wouldn’t be allowed to wear a cross. Check this story out.

@pumbelo:
yeah but it’s not the same thing.
The Annointed One (greek translation: Chrestus…Christ?) cannot be touched…

Given today’s culture I’m a little surprised she wasn’t beaten up by her fellow students and the video will be up on YouTube.
Guess you guys don’t know the story of Karl Rove and what happened to him at around the same age.
This little girl may just be the incubator for the future Karl Rove.
The good news is that she has plenty of company all over the nation if not the world.
What surprises me is that her school didn’t give her a “mini-vacation” for wearing the shirt. Our schools are nothing but incubators for producing more liberals.
Wait until you get to college Ashleigh.
Another fine example of tolerance by the left.
