You will not indoctrinate my child,” he wrote. “If you are going to present articles with a slant to one side you are morally and ethically required to present the opposing views, to give an opportunity for the student, your captive audience, to come to their own conclusions.”
Barry also reached out to the principal, who defended the teacher’s assignment and allegedly told him The New York Times story was not slanted.
On Friday the story took a bizarre turn.
A friend of Barry’s received a telephone call that he says came from Cydnee Cohen, the president of the East Pennsboro Education Association. Barry’s friend was a mutual friend of Cohen’s.
“We’re having some problems with a parent in our school district,” Cohen allegedly told Barry’s friend. “I would like to know -- some of it seems like he’s a neo-Nazi.”
Barry’s friend, who he declined to name, sent Cohen a text message, refuting the charge.
“Just got your message,” the friend wrote. “Josh is the furthest thing from a neo-Nazi. He is JEWISH.”

How’s this all gonna end? Read the first sentence of the Declaration of Independence.
Wow, I wish we had Republican leaders like that.
The teacher’s union leader is responsible for this. I pray that this father will not back down.
“For the record, Barry said he is not a neo-Nazi. After he went public with Cohen’s accusation, his friend received a rather heated phone call from the union boss.
“She was swearing at her,” he said. “When my friend questioned (Cohen) about her motive - she said, ‘I’m a union officer. These are my teachers.’”
Someone needs to notify the JDL and the ADL that some union twit is trying to instigate hatred against a Jewish man and his family.
With a trip up a smokestack.
Yet more ammunition for the belief that, since January 20, 2009, for the only time in my life, I am ashamed of my country.
“How is this all going to end?”
Badly.
Why does a union official even have the gall to think they have the right to investigate anybody's background?
Who provided information to the official?
Have we reached the point where even questioning a minor bureaucrat (the teacher) warrants personal background investigation?
Where does the union rep get off calling citizens to let them know their personal communications are being monitored?
Why is there an assumption that disagreement with dogma is automatically driven by radical ideology?
This is reason number 1,999,856,392 why you should NEVER send your child to a public school... a Stalinist Sausage Factory.
From what I've seen of those groups, they would back their political ally, the teachers union, over backing a single Jewish family, who may, oy vey, not be 100% liberal.
Could’ve been worse.
They could have called him a pedophile....
So the teachers’ union commissar verbally abuses the friend of the angry parent for alerting him that the union called him a neo-Nazi?
Union thuggery, pantsuit version.
The indoctrination of America’s children should be a top priority in everyone’s mind whether you yourself have children or not. It is the time bomb that will succeed in destroying America. If they manage to raise little socialist/Marxist/communists America will fall in time no matter what else Americans do to stop it. Stay out of the public school system, and assist anyone that needs help doing that for their children. Homeschool, homeschool, homeschool.
“This is reason number 1,999,856,392 why you should NEVER send your child to a public school”
Excellent point!
To slightly change the subject, down with homework. Kids are in school all day and supposed to do HOURS of mind numbing homework? When the hell are they supposed to have time to do kid stuff?
Someone in Cyndee’s family is Jewish, as wel, by blood or marriage. Her last name is **COHEN***!
When hardcore tyranny comes to our nation, the Marxo-fascists won't use cattle cars. They will, instead, use big yellow school buses. The sheeple will compliantly board them just as their indoctrinators ( oops! “teachers”) trained them to do.
Cyndee and her fellow Useful Idiots will be on the sidelines feeding the sheeple cookies and lactose free milk to calm them while the sheeple are waiting their turn at the gas ovens.
I am exasperated that so few conservatives understand the threat or feel the urgency to do shut these temples of Marxist indoctrination down!
Fact: Nearly every K-12 teacher in this nation ( both private and public) was trained by godless Marxists in godless colleges and universities. Even in private so-called conservative religious schools this Marxist training and thought leaks through.
You first.
