So, ok, this is the campaign?
don’t be paranoid, Vote for Jeb, he’ll make everything seem normal
Just think. If common core had been around when us far right extremists were in school, none of us would be able to read this ignorant tripe let along understand it without help.
Just because you are paranoid does NOT mean that they are not out to get you!
Tinfoil hat conspiracy yesterday leads to reality today. If you took the most unrealistic thought that has ran through your mind, with the most implausible scenario imaginable, and dismissed it as impossible, that idea has already been analyzed and worked up as a plan by some government agency or think tank to use against you. Bet on it.
McCarthy was proven correct.
McCarthy was proven correct.
Common Core, like Communism, and ObamaCare is one of several horrible and destructive policies/movements pushed upon us by progressives. Whether or not there are some who honestly think it a good thing, or there are those who imagine it to be a grand dark conspiracy perpetrated on us by evil space aliens intent on destroying humanity...is irrelevant to the reality that it is just a policy that really really sucks.
Exactly, and it’s not paranoia when they openly crow and gloat about their intentions.
“McCarthy was proven correct.”
Worth another repeat!
The curious and ironic thing is McCarthy has become for the left, the very kind of imagined boogie man and scapegoat he was accused of hunting. The only difference being, McCarthy’s quarry were very real, and very dangerous.
The paranoids are back and this time they are Establishment Republicans using Paranoia to to steal elections away from the Conservative base by catering to Black Paranoia about the Tea party...
[ Just think. If common core had been around when us far right extremists were in school, none of us would be able to read this ignorant tripe let along understand it without help. ]
If several of the states had the world’s best education in the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s...
Why are we not looking at the past and what was done right?
Because the answer would be that the Dept. of Education would have to go away...
[ Jeb Bush is different. When a savvy aide suggested he just avoid the whole touchy subject now that Common Core has become a hot potato, he wouldn’t. “I respect those that don’t agree with me,” he explained. “What I don’t accept are dumbing down standards and expectations.”
The man’s grammar may remain Bushian — it seems to be a family trait — but his principles remain intact. Or as he put it, “I just don’t feel compelled to run for cover when I think this is the right thing to do for our country.” What’s this — a Republican politician with enough character not to pander to the zealots on his party’s far right? Even as the far right comes closer and closer to capturing the GOP’s center. Or at least intimidating it.
However well Jeb Bush fares in the quadrennial circus known as an American presidential election, he seems to have a higher standard than just winning an election: being true to himself. ]
I know several libs who think that Jeb Bush is the “Smart Bush”, will THEY vote for Bush, NO, they won’t...
Actually I think Jeb is the Bush that happens to only LOOK and SOUND Smart, I think he is a complete dumbass, GW Bush just happens to LOOK dumb and sound Dumb, but probably is marginally a bit smarter than Jeb.

Because of the complete and Absolute Missteps by Leadership in the last 10-14 years I KNOW people who were reasonable people that long ago who now are seriously considering crazy People like Alex Jones as being Correct because the mismanagement has been so damned bad. Because their rational minds cannot grasp that the government could ever be so incompetent and evil.
OF course the leadership in place on both sides derides Conspiracy Theorists, but they are actually the ones throwing logs on the fire because they give everyone NO REASON or CONFIDENCE to think OTHERWISE....
When the population becomes Jaded to the level it is now, Conspiracy Theories are a Coping Mechanism for formerly Confident Peoples...
If you come upon a Flailing dying animal is hitting you in it’s death throes, it is not hard to think it is trying to kill you.....
You forgot to put “puff piece for Jeb” in brackets.
They are lying about the problems with common core: teachers and administrators tend to reject it once they see it.
Math teachers consider it ignorant. Teachers in general see it as placing huge time and paperwork requirements with absolutely no payoff in the classroom. Nor do they like being told what is significant history/literature/math by those in bureaucracies or ivory towers.
Administrators are forced to lie about the time they actually have to spend with teachers, and they know that these phony evaluations are pulled out their As___ because no one spends that kind of time in a single classroom watching styles, interactions, assignments, testing, attitudes, that each call for in-depth write-ups. The only way to accomplish it is to LIE or to let other administrative areas languish while they spend 24/7 on paperwork only about their disruptive incursions into classrooms.
It’s all a big bad government waste of time.
The reality based community continues to struggle with the reality of the Venona transcripts, apparently.
This just jumped right out at me when I read it. Members of teachers' unions are hardly the types who would be considered supporters of any "far-right" paranoid conspiracy. For the most part, the leftists in the teachers' unions fit Ben Kenobi's description of Mos Eisley "a hive of scum and villainy". They are hardly the people that I would expect to see on the protest line next to me and my FreeRepublic brethren.
Commie Core is a little different in real life than it looks on paper.
Everybody must learn the same things sounds good until you find out what those ‘things’ include.
Anal sex, fisting, and rubbers on a cucumber in kindergarten?
A liberal rewrite of history to make Marxism work?
Whatever a dictator like O’bastard decrees is what will be required.
innocent attempt of common core? Yet so innocently clouded in such secrecy its board decisions are shut out from public view.
Jeb is a communist. And no, it is not conspiracy to be stupid useful idiot like Jeb.
Sadly our education system spoils public educators with extortion powers that rival those of a mere cop. Making common core so urgent is brutal and war mongering, not for education but against any competitors by sheer arrogance.
another example is the Student loan sham. How can we promote a rotten economy and expect student loans to be paid back?... unless this is indeed going to turn into a “default conspiracy” of outright genocide, finding future generations endebted and automatically guilty?
