Right,LOL
So if you look black, well you are. And if I say I am black, I am.
Never mind the truth. This is like Alice in Wonderland. Or 1984.
The root of the problem is not liberal professors or "bad teachers" in the public schools. The reason our education system is corrupt from top to bottom is that it is a bureaucracy.
Does everybody on this website understand bureaucratic thinking? I have made a lifetime study of it, including studying friends and loved ones who worked for government agencies. Unless you think about education as a giant nest of government bureaucrats you will continue to make the mistake of thinking they are NORMAL.
Educational bureaucrats are not motivated by the idea of getting the job done (passing on our heritage of accumulated knowledge to the next generation).
They only respond to the next guy up the line who can kick their lazy rear end and deprive them of 1)salary, 2)promotions, or 3)retirement goodies. And, since most educational institutions are enslaved to unions, losing your job is practically impossible unless you are a serial killer and get caught.
Reform can only work if the person who pays their salaries is the person who receives the educational product, in this case the student or the parent of the student.
It used to be that way.
I cannot understand why so many Freepers are against him. He makes perfect sense to me. He is one of the prime conservatives in America and since this is a conservative forum, please enlighten me why some of you are so opposed to him. Try reading his new book. That might help.
"Even if Mr. Churchill is not an American Indian, as he claims, Title VII protects Caucasians as well as persons of color."
not if you're being hired at a university or the u.s. government.
try to get hired at the city of long beach, ca if you're a white male.
Churchill represents what is left of our colleges: Fake, phony, and all about the money.
I watched him last night and was very impressed. He has thought things through is great detail. Unlike sKerry, Newt actually does have a plan, a long range outline of where he would like to see America go in the next couple of decades.
I any case it serves as a starting point for discussion.
I don't know if he is the best man to run for the presidency, I think he might better serve as the "keeper of the plan". Presidencies are too short lived to accomplish such a comprehensive plan, and the president gets too immersed in day to day ( or year to year) operations to keep an eye on the long term picture.
Ethic's wise...if Ward can't prove any member of his family was ever an Indian...then he has to pack up the tee-pee and head off into the sunset. My guess is that he figured long ago...as most of us associated with the military...that you can claim Indian status or Eskimo status...and no one will question the matter. For the university...its great because they hired someone of color. Doesn't matter that they lied...its matters that you have more minorities on the school payroll.
"The educational establishment has nothing to do with learning or teaching or education.
The educational establishment exists soley to allow educators to draw salaries and develop their leftist positions."
And inculcate their students to their sickness.
Mary Frances Berry!!! There is the answer right there!
I have just finished reading Liberty Wins homepage.
We all need help sometimes, but in the writing arena she is well accomplished.
Liberty, I truly enjoyed your article about President Reagan.
The website about your grandparents is beautiful.
The birthday wishes from Clinton...prominently displayed in the bathroom, above the toilet was a hoot!
One simple solution- DNA test. That would solve the Indian heritage question. As for plagerism and copywrite infringment, in the academic community, I thought there were no bigger sins.
100% Cherohonkie
Newt is one of my favorites, too. He is the closest thing we have in America to a statesman, and though he is human and not perfect (like Reagan), he is certainly one of the founding fathers of the Golden Age of Conservatism we are approaching. His Contract with America is well-nigh complete, and the freshmen who came into the House in 1994 will probably finish the last couple of items. Thank you, Newt.
They'd better be careful, or every student who applies for admission is going to check the box marked "Native American" or "African American." Then how will they know whom to give the full scholarships to?
I agree that Churchill is not the problem, he is a symptom of the problem.
The problem is that they are almost totally incompetent.
The fact that they are riddled with radicals (socialists/communists) trying to indoctrinate the next generation is also a symptom of their incompetence.
We are falling behind other countries in the sciences, math, and engineering according to Newt.
I think we can use the tempest over Ward Churchill to focus attention on the real problem.
He's easy to hate. 'Psych Ward'Churchill is an arrogant liar. What's worse? A liar is bad. An arrogant person is bad. An arrogant liar is the worst!
Reminds me quite a lot of HRC!
LOL!
You're right, but here's betting Psych Ward will be leveled soon.
Can you direct me to a source that you may know on that marriage and that girl's death?
Any help would be great. This guy needs to go down. Justice.
----- very wise.
