Once upon the 1960s, California's public schools were the envy of the world. If you want to know why they're so awful today, consider the political scam that the California Teachers Association is now playing on Democratic Governor Gray Davis.

But hey, the Homo Sexual Predator agenda is pushed each day in Kali schools about the great life as a homosexual. That has to be measured.

The Queen of Abortion, Fairy Davis, has made sure that the great values of constant and free abortion are taught everyday at school. That needs to be measured.

Then don't forget the Diversity Classes where the chilrun find out about evil white people versus the great t$rd world countries. You know the t%rd world countries from which their parents fled to come to the evil state of Kali to live. The Diversity goals/quotas and mantras have to be measured.

Then last, but not least, most of the teachers hired in the past decade are products of above and can't do simple math nor read. So by becoming tenured teachers, they have a job and are not on the streets begging for money. By hiring these dumbed down teachers, Davis has limited the number of homeless with no talent/skills. They can have a lifetime career teaching perversity, the value of abortion and the evil of white men.

It criminal how the most gifted teachers are run out of the system and the most brightest young people with incination for teaching are discouraged all together. The smart kids learn early the teaching isn't the way to go.

The samething has been happening in most seminaries the past 2 decades.

The young people who would be good priests or ministers are chased out or harrassed until they leave. That leaves the perverts and non believers who eventually end up as non Christian Priests and ministers.

In some cases with Kali teachers, it is just the dumb who make it. They are apolitical until they become teachers and finally get a pay check besides one from BK or BIG MCD. Then they are told by the union that if not for the union, they would not have a regular paying job. So they must join the union and then vote for Davis, the Clintoon and the Goron. Of course they related to the Goron as one of their own, a real dumb sob, who passed as somewhat intelligent.

Conservatives need to keep pushing education reform. Most parents are receptive to having their children actually learn, as opposed to just being handed of certificate of "achievement". They want safe schools where disruptive students are removed and criminal and perverted teachers are fired. They want their progeny to grow up with "self esteem" that is earned by hard work, and which will lead them towards a successful career and a rich family life.

I watched a Black town hall meeting on CSpan two weeks ago, and education vouchers were a hot item. The usual suspects were firmly against them, while parents and Christian ministers were in favor.

We can win real education reform by showing that it is the real path to freedom.

I believe that a lot of black parents have awaken to the terrible injustice that the NEA and Cali teachers unions have and are doing to their children.

I'm not that convinced about most white middle class parents. 20 years ago when there was evenings of meet the teachers of your children. Often my wife and one or two other couples would be at these meetings. This continued from elementary to high school.

I will never forget what a good middle school teacher told us, when we asked how our children were doing.

He said great! He said that any student, who had parents who came on nights like this usually did well. In classes of 30 students per class, we and two other couples were in that classroom that night to talk about our children with their teachers.

Now, there is one elementary school where our sons attended that has the best teachers. Parents do anything to get their kids in this school. On parents's night at this school, parents have to park 2-4 blocks away and walk to the school to attend the parent/teacher conferences. My wife drives by another school coming home from work, and the parking lot is basically empty on these evenings.

You make an excellent point. Parental involvement is probably the most important factor in the child's educational success. Those who leave their child's education strictly to the system, leave them floundering. The parents must be a part of it.

We know of a Kali gal who took her 3rd grade girl out of a private school because she had too much homework. The teacher expected the parents to proctor and go over this homework. This gal did not want to do that. In fact she told my wife the reason they took her girl to private school was to free them in the evenings for dealing with school work.

The girl is now in a public school with no home work. The Kali Mother is now happy that her personal life at home in the evenings is not interupted by homework.

No mention of the father. A single parent perhaps? Who has better evening plans that to help her child study, no doubt. Poor kid.

Actually the father did help the child at night. My wife feels that this woman was jealous that her husband spent the time with his child. He was the one who went to the private school's parent teacher nights. The woman is one of the new NOW bullies.

But after botching the energy crisis and sending the state budget deeper into debt than Enron, Mr. Davis has moved left to rally his political base in hopes of keeping the statehouse in November. This makes him a prime candidate for blackmail by the California Teachers Association, which knows exactly what it's doing by pushing this bill now.

The Wall Street Journal sort of says it all. Unfortunately, it is not read by many democratic voters who prefer to get their news from their neighbors.

This is the most evil education measure to come down the pike in a long time. Conservatives need to realize that public education is here to stay, and we need to fight this.

These children are going to be the future of our state. They will be running for public office, fighting our wars, teaching our children, working in our factories. We are educating a generation of souless, stupid children and conservatives need to be united and turn our schools back into institutions of LEARNING. Where kids will learn to read, write, learn math and science, and learn how to be good citizens.

Here is a typical example of how the Kali school kids are tartgets of the perverted dark side:

School Invites Planned Parenthood Without Parental Notice

Arcata, CA - As a freshman at Arcata High School, taking Health class is a requirement as part of the curriculum. Recently, as part of the course outline, school administrators invited guest speakers from Planned Parenthood to address the class of freshmen. The topic to be covered by Planned Parenthood was sexual education, but more specifically "homophobia" and homosexuality.

The school administrators who invited Planned Parenthood to the class, failed to give prior notice to the parents, nor did the school obtain parental written consent for this presentation.

As part of an icebreaker, Planned Parenthood asked the class to stand in a circle. Questions were then asked of the class regarding "homophobia" and homosexuality. Whenever a question was asked that applied to the students, the students were asked by Planned Parenthood to step into the middle of the circle, facing their peers. One question was "Does your religion believe against or think homosexuality is a sin or something wrong?"

Feeling humiliated and singled-out, only a few students stepped forward. "This made me feel very uncomfortable," claimed one of the freshmen students. "I felt like I was being judged as a bad person ... my classmates stared at me like I had done something wrong."

"This line of questioning equates to religious-based harassment and violated both state and federal law when it was performed without prior written parental consent," said Brad Dacus, President of the Pacific Justice Institute. "On behalf of the student, the Pacific Justice Institute has agreed to offer any legal assistance and represent parents throughout the administrative complaint process."

The Pacific Justice Institute is a non-profit 501(c)(3) legal defense organization specializing in the defense of religious freedom, parental rights, and other civil liberties. P.O. Box 4366, Citrus Heights, CA 95611 Phone (916) 857-6900 Fax (916) 857-6902 www.pacificjustice.org

For those who don't know about Arcata, it is in the only county north of the Bay Area that voted for Goron. It is the home of the Enviralist/Hate America University, Humboldt University.

It is as left wing as San Francisco and maybe worse!
