I want to agree with you on that, but sadly, I cannot.
One, just one, novel of a Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Faulkner, Thomas Wolfe even, is worth more than what has been written collectively in the last ten years.
T. S. Eliot in a day could write better poetry than what has been composed in all the creative writing departments in the United States over the last twenty yearsand we are going to give more billions under Obama to education.
That (coffin)nailed it.
And America expects what from the NEA agenda and the American educational system? (sic)
To teach math, science, reading, writing, and the pride and dignity of the values of Western civilization and Americas stunning achievements in the world?
Nope. Its all multicultural diversity training and the loving embrace of every perverted and disgusting habit of man.
Sorry, students havent gone through twelve years of public school for nothing.
Theyve learned one thing and perhaps only one thing during those twelve years.
Theyve forgotten their algebra, theyve grown to fear and resent literature, they write like theyve been lobotomized, but Jesus, can they follow orders!
Students dont ask that orders make sense because they gave up expecting things to make sense long before they left elementary school.
Things are true because the teacher says theyre true.
Outside class, things are true to your tongue, your fingers, your stomach, your heart.
Inside class, things are true by reason of authority, and thats just fine because you dont care anyway.
Miss Wiedemeyer tells you a noun is a person, place or thing, so let it be. You dont give a rats ass; she doesnt give a rats ass.
The only important thing is to please her, and that lesson follows right through College. - cooperate and graduate as your professors tear down everthing good and noble in American history to replace it with their "agenda for change."
Back in kindergarten, you found out that teachers only love children who stand in nice straight lines.
And thats where its been at ever since.
Nothing changes except to get worse, as those students now vote as they are ordered to vote, and believe what the MSM tells them to believe.
The Matrix is here.
A great job of ruining America by the NEA and the public education system.
If you go look at a high school textbook from say 1910, it’s unbelievable. Greek, Latin, classic literature; calculus. I’m not necessarily saying this is an essential part of a typical education program, but the level of study is orders of magnitude beyond what is taught today.
