I knew there was a good reason.
Obama is a tool of socialist parasites, while Reagan's talk was a history lesson. I don't think it qualifies as hypocrisy to object to a man looking to destroy the foundations of the United States.
Because, Governor Perry, DICK-taters don't work that way.
Thanks. I didn’t see anything there that pertained much to the actual content of his speech. I guess we’ll have to wait and see just how horrible it really is.
Georgetown said - NAY!
Leander said - NAY!
Notice there is no right to exclude, based on political belief.
Teachers work for administrators, administrators set policy.
The big deal is the lesson plans that the Federal Department of Education sent to all the school districts. Maybe you could produce such documents from other administrations?
Designed to invoke racial reprisals, don't you think?
Well, yes indeedy, that’s what the balance of my comment pertained to. The Teachers as Ambassadors or some such was responsible for the lesson plans and it is an arm of the NEA. The speech, eh. The lesson plans come from my old friends in the NEA. I could tell you tales from the 70s that would make your hair stand on end.

Who is this Senor Presidente?
Why does he want to address us peons?
He towers above us. Yet somehow loves us.
How may we help you, after this seance?
Yes, who is this Santo Obama?
We beg God to make Him immortal.
This One we cherish, must never perish.
A new age beckons, and he's the portal.
“And the Fort Worth Independent School District will have the speech available live at all of its high schools, but students will not be required to watch it. Students who choose not to view it will be offered alternative activities.”
Alternative activities? What? Cleaning the toilets in the locker rooms? Writing their name on the blackboard 1 million times? Perhaps addressing envelopes for ACORN or making political calls for the DNC?
LOL... I would not trust these people as far as I could throw them...lol. If my kid was still in school..he would not be attending that day...PERIOD!
Reagan (1988) and GHWB (1991) both did this.
+++++++++++++++++
Did they provide accompanying cirriculum highly encouraged (as they put it) throught the DoE?
What did they say? Stay in School, read much, stay off drugs, you are our future.
Much different than, please figure out the ways the POTUS inspires you, or how do I inspire you to change, or what will you do to support our efforts for change...blah, blah, dear leader, blah.
Since I don’t have any kids, it really doesn’t affect me, but I will reserve my judgement until after I hear what he has to say.
I believe the speech will be on the White House website Monday
Thanks
Sorry, spell check was off this weekend....
It is about federal involvement where they do not belong...freedom encroachment...there is no right in Constitution for a Department of Education. So whether you have kids or not, it still is wrong and you should care, because freedom is not free and must be defended.
