Perhaps if they concentrated on reading, writing and arithmetic, we would be a stronger country. It is ridiculous how they concentrate on junk and not the basics of learning. I am not saying having a Spirit day is a bad thing, but I just think if they would teach, they wouldn’t need a Spirit day because everyday would be a spirit day.

You know what? You are 100 percent right. I am stunned when I talk to my “extremely intelligent honor student in all AP and Honors classes” neighbor kid who goes to the Public school while my kids go to Catholic School and do well but steady IMHO. It is stunning how this “gifted kid” doesn’t know anything. Very sad especially about the fact that they are selling this crap of being so intelligent to not only the kid but the parents too. I guarantee that he will be back in his parents basement no later than 1 year from starting college.

How about being offended that anybody who claims to be offended about a “Pro-America” Celebration?

I have had it up to here with these damned worthless Libtards asshats that are always so worried about offending some cretin that should not be in our country in the first place.

What they are really saying is you can't celebrate white Western culture.

Tell the non-americans to suck it up and embrace diversity. If they are offended it is only because they are too intolerant and they are being racist.

Here's another broken record alert: This is yet another reason why TruTV needs a new show, World's Dumbest School Administrators. Danny Bonaduce, Tonya Harding and the rest of that cast would have more than enough material to keep them busy for life.

I have concluded that it is not foreigners that are ruining this country.
Its politically correct guilty white liberals that make every decision based on the ‘feelings’ that they say people have.
They punish 99% for the ‘feelings’ of one, even though those ‘feelings’ are nonexistant to start with.

They should have a Muslim Day.

Yep... they should be very realistic about it too.
On Muslim Day, all gay students are executed. The females are rounded up and beaten; one for being in school and attempting to read, second for being in the presence of other males alone. Thats a capital offence.
Then, all males that are leftover are strapped with bomb vests and ordered to go home and kill their infidel parents if they don’t convert to islam.
Come on, if you gonna do it, do it right. You know, since America is so bad and all.

But, but, but, we sincerely WANT to offend illegal alien invaders from Mexico!

We ESPECIALLY want to offend the “helpless young children” that were illegally born in our tax-paid hospitals.”

Honest!

It goes WAAAAY back to the early 1900's and the 'Progressive' movement and Woodrow Wilson: Woodrow Wilson “We want one class of persons to have a liberal education, and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class of necessity in every society, to forgo the privilege of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks.” ― Woodrow Wilson 28th President of The United States I hope your neighbor's 'gifted' kid enjoys manual labor.................
