This is how it is going to have to be: First of all, all of the school board members here have to be run against, and run hard against, and ejected from office. And then the principal needs to be fired, and every administrator along the way.
Second: Conservatives must begin, immediately, to get liberals fired from their jobs for any political expression. Any. Political. Expression.
We have tried to reason to them that this fascism is unfair. They don't care, they don't get it. All they see is the upside of fascism, the "good" side, the happy side, the I-get-to-coerce-my-opponents-and-hold-them-in-terror side.
They haven't been held in terror themselves, worried that any stray comment they make may cause them to lose their livelihood (in the worst recession since the depression, no less). They do not "behave" as conservatives are forced to stay in line because they haven't experienced the terror of of a hostile political bloc which has seized control of all the apparatuses of government.
They must be made to be afraid. And when a certain number of them have experienced the bad side of fascism, perhaps then they will be amenable to reason.
But they won't be until then. It's time to start using their despicable tactics against them. Not out of vengeance -- but as a teachable moment.

Do we have to wonder what the school board reaction would have been if it had been an anti W song.
No we do not need to wonder. We know.
