The students act as if they are not Mexican Americans, but Mexicans living in what is temporarily America. They were taught that immigrants need not adapt to their new nation, but the nation must adapt to them. This reverses the philosophy of the public schools, which for over a century successfully Americanized the children of immigrants. But no more.
Demonstrators carried signs saying, SI SE PUEDE which they believed means Yes we can. But that would be SÍ SE PUEDE, with the accent over the i. Without the accent, it means If we can. Maybe they could if they were literate in at least one language. But with bilingual education, that may be too much to ask.

The feeling sorry for Mexicans is wearing thin. When in America, they should be thankful instead of thumbing their nose at our generosity.
email I got:
History Note
Most people don’t know that back in 1912, Hellmann’s mayonnaise was
manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of
the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.
This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.
The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly
awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so
great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still
observe to this day.
The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of
course, as Sinko de Mayo.
WHAT!!!! You expected something educational .
i saw something tonight about wednesday being ‘flaunt the American flag day’
sounds solid to me. should get legs. and the media would hate it.
pass it on
facebook: FLAUNT THE AMERICAN FLAG DAY--Nationwide Protest Wednesday, May 12, 2010
also previous FR thread:
freerepublic: FLAUNT THE AMERICAN FLAG DAY--Nationwide Protest Wednesday, May 12, 2010
pass it along as much as you can. only 2 days to get the word out.
May 5 should always be remembered as the day the United States along with other nations delivered liberty and freed the world of tyrant by forcing it to lay down its arms.
Actually, I feel disrespected anyone would suggest I should not fly the U.S. flag on May 5.
Does your blog say anything new that the other dozen threads on this didn’t?
If so, please post that part here.
And, I dont know what all this bellyaching is about.
Why it is the FRENCH flag which should "offennnnnnnnd" them if anything:
See my tagline.
This deserves its own thread!
We should make EVERY Wednesday flaunt the flag day.
As Fourth of July gets closer, Walmart always puts out racks and racks of various flag t-shirts — usually around $3.00 each. Stock up for the whole family this year and keep the flag out there at every opportunity.
So, I should have kept reading. ;)
Sending a child into the government schools is child abuse.
The author is giving far too much credit to the government schools. It was the **PARENTS** of these immigrant kids who sent their kids to school said, "LEARN ENGLISH! LEARN TO BE AMERICAN!"
What did socialist-funded, socialist-modeled, single payer government schools do for earlier immigrants? Answer: They taught them to be good little socialists who thought it was just great to have: the IRS, confiscation of vast swaths of land for federal parks without compensation, Woodrow Wilson, the federal reserve, unions, feminism, the "One World" League of Nations, Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, The "One World" U.N., Johnson's Great Society, and the abolishment of the gold standard.( just to list a few outrages.)
If children attend socialist government schools they will learn to be comfortable with socialism! They learn that the government can take money from their neighbor to pay for a service that their parents ( immigrant or not) want for tuition-free. Do that for 13 years and the child learns if the government can take money by threat of force for schooling, why not a thousand other wants and needs?
We are trying so hard not to produce super-patriots that we are producing too few ordinary patriots. We saw the danger of chauvinism in Nazism, and we see it now in radical Islam. But if one extreme is bad, this does not mean that the opposite extreme is good. Too much water can cause drowning, but lack of water can also be fatal.
The author( a doctor) has his microscope trained on one fly on the rotting elephant lying dead in the living room!
The rotting elephant in the living room is DEMORALIZATION! The Marxists that have near complete control of government schooling and every other cultural institution in America are DEMORALIZING our children! They are doing it so that they will not be able to think clearly even when the black and white evidence is standing right before them!
So?...Conservatives, what the plan? Where is the rational long term plan to RE-moralize our nation?
Unless conservatives combat demoralization with remoralization our nation is lost! Part of that plan absolutely must include abolishing all government schools and finding a way to get our nation's children into private conservative schools!
Yuri Besmenov, the former KGB spy warned us! He said the following:
"Ideological subversion is the process which is legitimate and open. You can see it with your own eyes.... It has nothing to do with espionage. I know that intelligence gathering looks more romantic.... That's probably why your Hollywood producers are so crazy about James Bond types of films. But in reality the main emphasis of the KGB is NOT in the area of intelligence at all. According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country. It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages. The first one being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least three generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism....( Yuri Besmenov)
● What about those who forbid Christmas programs in schools, though attendance is voluntary,...while we are distressed by the mere mention of God at a graduation.
Socialism **always** moves in the direction of atheism!! The very first day that government schools opened in the mid-1800s, children were already being fed a generic and lukewarm Protestantism that could be tolerated by the majority. ( We know what Christ thinks about being lukewarm!) And..We should not be surprised that by the 1940s , 1950s, and 1960s children in our socialist government schools were subjected to a thoroughly godless curriculum with a sprinkle of prayer during homeroom!
Decades of training children to think godlessly in our socialist government schools made OBAMA INEVITABLE!!!
If our nation is ever to succeed in overcoming godless Marxism or Islam they must be educated in schools that **thoroughly** integrate their families Judeo-Christian values into the woof and weave of every subject and every school policy. This can **only** be accomplished in **private** schools!
So?...Conservatives, what the plan? Where is the rational long term plan to RE-moralize our nation?
Bump that!
No, I say a number of old things which I believe are important, but which are being forgotten. I thought that is what “conservative” means.
So post it then, don’t excerpt it. Are you here to enlighten or use?
