EVANSTON -- Some Evanston students want to write letters to Rush Limbaugh. Others want to call him out for a debate.

The reaction to the conservative talk-show host comes after Limbaugh put down Evanston Township High School's multicultural curriculum during his nationally syndicated radio show.

He doesn't represent my ideals as a conservative.

You're a conservative? Okay let's call you out on the carpet:

What conservative ideals of yours does Rush so betray that you have such contempt for him?

"I've love to see that debate against young fresh minds."

We all know what Clintoon or Ted Kennedy would like to do with those "young fresh"... ahem... minds.

Not to mention Barney Fag.

oh great. if he follows form, Rush will find one or two examples of bad students at this school and talk about them and himself being right about the school for 80% of his show.

lol-ing... Poor Rush, having to deal with single-lobers, oh my. And Highscrewlers, at that! lol. The principal, if he had any moxie, would simply do what other Multi-Culti leadership do! Give their students A's for any subject studied which adheres to the tenets of revisionist histoire! lol!!!

Friday AM, one of the cable cartoon shows had an "educational" program discussing the Holocaust and it's comparison to the genocide taking place in Sudan.

Hitler was NEVER mentioned. They showed Auschwitz and mentioned Germany...because that's where many of them lived. They discussed Ann Frank but not WWII. They stated the the Holocaust was the largest mass killing of people in modern history (I guess they forgot, Russia (Stalin), China/Asia/Pacific (Japan) or Rwanda).

Then, they showed students selling raffle tickets to raise money for the Sudanese refugees living in camps. How sweet.

No, I don't believe in forced "parenting" by non-parents. If anything, some homeschoolers might consider debating these "highscrewl" multi-cultis. And we could all bring pies... not to toss, as the multi-culturalists do.. but to have a ... BAKE SALE! :>

NO KIDDING! I witnessed a stomach-sickening verbal brawl just this morning between a Democrat and a Republican. I got into the middle of these two men. It was awful. The Democrat was saying very vile, hateful things; AS HIS BASIS for his opinion. Spit was flying from his mouth -- Not facts, not data. What a whirrled...

Considering that many of today's teens can't form complete sentences without saying "Um," after every other word, calling El Rushbo's comments bogus was quite an achievement. Like, way to go, dude!

Most important thing said in this whole thread about this matter, IMHO. Kudos!

Ah, the joys of TN public ed. Did they issue you these super-huge Social Studies books ? I discovered it would take 2 full years+ to adequately cover said book. We were fortunate if we got up past the pilgrims to WWI. We covered the pilgrims so often year after year that I was truly sick to death of them and those ridiculous paper cutouts of turkeys they used to have us make.

I agree with everything you said except the last sentence.

I don't know what my "brand" of conservatism is.

You sure have lit up the thread, thought. Come back and give it a fight. Welcome to FR, I think.

Their mommies may think they are the Center of the Universe, but Rush obviously doesn't.

These kids will have a cruel introduction to the real world and it will be the doating, angst ridden, guilty conscience, have it all at the expense of your family feminists that are the "root cause" of it.

so what caused you to investigate this thread.....

I know: you are facinated by El-Rushbo...you are awe-struck by his brilliance - you are envious of his ability to stymie the liberal hoards with flawless logic - and you sit and ponder why the Good Lord would loan all of that talent into just one lovable little fuzzball.

"Some Evanston students want to write letters to Rush Limbaugh. "

So what's stopping them? Oh yeah, first they have to wait for some teacher during class time to tell what to write.

To not know Limbaugh, is bliss. He doesn't represent my ideals as a conservative.

So you signed up today to bash Rush Limbaugh and then run away?

I think "K" isn't as happy as they were earlier.

Hey "K", if you can cite a few examples of what you claim, you score Mega-dittos with all here.

Unfortunately, your post has a familar ring to it. Liberals, who realize that liberals have no moral standing, here, or in normal society, will make claims and then pretend to be conservative or Republican. Again, only because they realize that people hold liberal views in low esteem.
