I’m going to work at an inner city charter school next week. If I see this indoctrination plan on an office desk, it’s going in the garbage.
our first thought was to keep them home especially with the books and collateral stuf we heard about
but our school is eschewing that and we have trips lined up so chose pragmatism over ideology this time
Son just got a couple of phone calls from some of his friends at school. They heard Obama giving an intro to his speech on their morning announcements, the obama supporters were cheering, his friends left school when homeroom was over.
And exactly has the chosen one done to “fight” poverty & homelessness. I havent’ heard a single plan, proposal, bill, or anything focusing on fighting poverty & homelessness....????
I'll ask my daughter when she gets home if it came up --- I'll then ask her those questions.
I'm not afraid of what she learns in school, I'm really not.
My husband is looking forward to looking through her History text and syllabus. I'm not so sure she is looking forward to him doing that, but she does know that Daddy knows his history and will neither tolerate nor allow revisionism in this house.
Look, I perfectly understand the animosity many have against the public school system, and I am often in agreement. However, I am not and never will be in agreement with those who believe that the entire public school system is evil incarnate. In fact, I believe that people that espouse that position are extremely wrongheaded and do far more damage than good to their own positions.
I pinged wintertime to this post because I am specifically referring to her attitudes in regard to those of us who have chosen public school.
Those opposed were doing a good job of that on their own.
[[WHY WE DON’T WANT HIM TALKING TO OUR KIDS]]
Because he’s a dangerous idiot- end of story
It all depends on the school and the teachers.
Would you really be sending your children to public school if you lived in say, Berkley Ca. ?
In my experience it all depends on the school administrators and the community you live in.
Personally my children go to school to learn communication,
reading, math, spelling, writing etc.
Not to become an activist against our family values.
Ouch! That should have burned! hehe
Or crime and discrimination means racial profiling and sentence disparities between crack and powder cocaine.
Americans lose trust in their president when they are LIED to.
Obama: “I HAVE NOT SAID THAT I WAS A SINGLE PAYER SUPPORTER.”
Obama: “I HAPPEN TO BE A PROPONENT OF A SINGLE PAYER UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE PLAN.”

very well written piece. Obama thought he would use his Saul Alinsky tactics to radically create the HIVE mentality where resistance would be futile and assimilation was guranteed.
I guess he underestimated true Patriotism in this country but then all Communists do.
And the parents.
Would you really be sending your children to public school if you lived in say, Berkley Ca. ?
absolutely not. But then I wouldn't live in Berzerkley for the same reasons I wouldn't send a child to school there.

Same here, which is one of the reasons we live where we do as opposed to where we used to live.
Personally my children go to school to learn communication, reading, math, spelling, writing etc.
Same with my child.
Not to become an activist against our family values.
Once again, same here.
I so wish we didn't live in the middle of nowhere without broadband or better internet access. I would so love to record her "MOMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEE (or DAAAAAAAAAAAAADDEEEEEEEEEEE,) I'm not STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPID" on youtube when we hit her with something opposite what her "friends" are telling her.
Isn't it amazing that everyone of her friends in the Talented and Gifted (TaG) program all have the same attitude she does? While they may be empathetic, to a one the majority of her TaG friends have no use for the slackers, and that is what they call them.
Interestingly enough, my freckle-faced, blue-eyed, blond daughter was a minority at Governor's school this summer. That intensive 2 week course is only open to the best of the best of the TaG students and all have to compete to get into it.
Some people can, but most people can not, understand why I am so over the racial crap. I have kids in and out of my house on a regular basis and never pay a damned bit of attention to their race. In fact the majority of kids I have banned from my house are white. I don't like sneaks and thieves..........and I'm talking about 8-12 year olds, and even a 5 year old. That's horrible,,, and definitely not racist.
a million thanks for stating the case [for me] so brilliantly!!!
Obama is stealing our childrens future in the form of overspending in the Present. Unless he wanted to talk about that with them and be HONEST with them then they don’t need to hear the Propaganda.
My 3 kids stayed home and I held a Civics lesson on the limits of government and our founders intentions.
This grandmother is so proud of you!!! Wish all parents did what you have done!!!
the home-school people don’t seem so kooky

“And tens of millions of Americans don’t want a person like that talking to their children.”
Justifiably so. Every parent should share this concern, and should be familiar with the connection with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and the Chicago Annenberg Challenge and all its implications to indoctrination of youth at the very minimum.
This was VERY well said by Bob Lonsberry.
When he came out with those “lesson plans” and exercises for the students, THAT CONFIRMED reasons to not trust him.
By the way,
Does anyone have links or copies of the materials they sent out last week? I would love a copy.
