Does he think that blacks and Latinos do not celebrate Thanksgiving or Christmas?

Is his school 100% Somali immigrants?

Take a close look at Masini's photo. He looks like an actor playing a drunk right before he tips over.

I wonder if liberals sit in from of mirrors to practice the ubiquitous vacant stare.

Schools do not exist to honor other cultuires but to instill an understanding and reverence of our culture. Damn these communists.

We are undergoing a red diaper doper baby revolution that has been waged since WWII. It isn’t as bloody as the revolutions in China or Iran or Cambodia but the old order is being erased from history by hard left extremists.

I’m for this. Valentine’s Day is a stupid Hallmark holiday. If you want to give your sweetie a gift, you can do that anytime.

Ask the principal if the school will be instructing students in the made up holiday of Kwanzaaaaaa.

The real education would be teaching just who the creator of Kwanza was and exposing how the media does not mention any of his scandals or intentions.

It doesn’t surprise me that someone working at Bruce Vento who was a most liberal nutjob congresscritter. “He consulted with his staff” = groupthink

My bet is most of the parents can’t even read the letter. Way too many big words in progspeak.

While looking for something else I ran across a chart showing which political party had held which part of the government and for how long.

What was interesting was that the Republican party had held sway for long periods up until 1933 and then everything changed over to the democrat party and has remained so ever since ...

For me personally, the country was lost with Nixon. After him, everyone has just been fighting over the scraps.

And as things progress, the blood spilled here will resemble that of other socialist revolutions ... Did you know that from 1900-1999, the socialists murdered almost as many people as the Islamists did in 1400 years? The socialists have only a paltry 40 million more or so to murder and they will be equal ...

So St. Paul is now under occupation by a foreign conqueror.

That’s pretty depressing.

So, can they still celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?

Why ban Thanksgiving Day celebrations? It’s half God centered, but is also a history-centered event. It is as American as apple pie.

As for Valentine’s Day, I don’t think that is too much of a loss. Kids can still give valentines to their friends.

A big smile about St. Blaise Day on Feb. 3rd.

I get your point, but holidays (religious and secular) are the type of thing that hold a society together.

“Parents and school boards let them get away with it. Remember that.”

A cogent fact that conservatives refuse to acknowledge. When I was involved in local politics, inviting a so-called conservative to attend a schoolboard or village council meeting was like asking a vampire to attend a sunrise church ceremony.

You can. Conservatives can. Apathy is who gets us all in trouble. I’m not attacking you just stating the facts.
