I taught for 4 years in the 70's and even then there was frustration at every turn. I was in my mid thirties when I earned my degree and was certified, and I was appalled at what the schools had become since my HS days. Four years was all I could take. The older teachers were just holding on; the coaches were interested in sports only, though they had to teach classes, too.

I did my best to instill interest and tell them the truth about real life. I loved the students, but even then the NEA was PC and teachers were forced to join the state union. I opted out of NEA union because I could see where it was going and what it was doing.

The national leaders are nearly all flaming leftists and have entered education expressly to carry out their agenda. Unfortunately, unsuspecting parents have allowed them to succeed.

Yea - it’s AMAZING that the vast majority of Americans STILL cannot figure it out.

Tony Snow once said that he thought Rush was embellishing on the subject of education...that was until his kids entered public school. Dr. Laura thought the same regarding Rush, although it may have been the gay lobby in her case.

Even our TOP COMMENTATORS are unable comprehend just what’s out there. I had it figured out in about a month, when I started college at ESU.
