Just another feature in the ongoing attempt by the media to undermine traditional American values and promote hussein’s Marxist revolution.

The Soviets knew it as propaganda.

yada, yada, yada... her daughter is 13... been in school about 8 years now... how is it that this parent is just now finding out about this???

Varebrook plans to email her daughter’s teacher about political bias in the assignment, but is skeptical of what good it will do.

I'm becoming convinced that American parents need to fight for their children's political and personal sanity by removing them from the clutches of the Leftist Long Marchers in two steps:

• Take the kids out of the schools,
• Defund the schools until they have to turn loose faculty and administrators,
• Take control of the school boards, and
• Use school board control to separate the Leftist administrators and teachers and their biased, disinformational classroom materials from the student body.

Then and only then will it be safe again to entrust the education of the country's children to the school systems.

In between all the foregoing, it will also be necessary to fight off the Obammunists like Arne Duncan and his Soviet Dept. of Education, who are trying to seize control of school funding and curricula.

This is a demonstration as to why the left is and will remain in control. THEY LEAVE NOTHING TO CHANCE. THEY OVERLOOK NO OPPORTUNITY TO GET THEIR MESSAGE ACROSS. They in we lose.

Another totally stupid action by teachers.

Conversely, they learned liberalism is “the political belief of equality and personal freedom for everyone, often changing the current system to increase government protection of civil liberties.”

Right, because liberals are so interested in liberty.

Liberals are interested in "social justice", not liberty, and the two are frequently at odds.

These are teachers who, themselves, came through a government schools system which long ago participated in the censorship of the ideas of liberty from textbooks and from use in classroom teaching.

How are these teachers supposed to understand and teach the difference between liberty and tyranny? Who prepared them? Certainly the teachers' colleges, the certification boards, and the NEA did not do it!

If they are under 70, chances are they were indoctrinated by the college and university professors who prepared them for the field to look with disdain on those who called themselves "conservatives," and to cling to the Legislative Agenda of the NEA as their anchor for the politically-correct philosophy of the day.

Why would anyone expect that their students would be taught the Founding philosophy of Creator-endowed, unalienable, life and liberty for individuals? Such an expectation is unreasonable.

Thankfully, home schools, private schools, and a few other institutions are training what may be a remnant of citizens to cherish and preserve freedom.

Conversely, they learned liberalism is “the political belief of equality and personal freedom for everyone, often changing the current system to increase government protection of civil liberties.”

Isn't that true? Don't liberals support unrestricted, unregulated abortion? As long as people have the right to engage in irresponsible sexual behavior and abort the resulting children, they don't need any other freedoms.

Note: This is my interpretation of liberalism, not my opinion. I am not pro-abortion.

wow.
