Jeb is a strong supporter of Common Core ... and amnesty ... and crony capital special favors ... and that makes him perfect for his Wall Street and K Street buddies!

If you look at the “peaceful protestors” talking part in the recent demonstrations across America, what do you see? Young people who are products of the public school system. If you listen to the “peaceful protestors” what do you hear? Lies about America that were “taught” in the public schools. As if we need another reason to be cynical regarding Common Core, it continues the lies the built Ferguson. There is no doubt that our schools are places where a leftist agenda is being pushed but it gets even more sinister. Are we deliberately encouraging these protests and the resulting civil unrest?
The unrest and the “change” we are seeing in the attitudes of the young is the result of several different factors, one being what is taught in the public schools. For example, History used to teach civics and love of country. Nowadays, history isn’t even considered an important subject. History teachers and the history curriculum do not show America positively. Children used to learn about the history of America in a way that instilled pride. These children grew up to build America, the most desirable country ever to exist. Instead of continuing the lessons which made America the envy of the world, we are presenting a picture of America that causes our children to question its’ goodness.
As a public school teacher, I have noticed the same broken record played over and over.

Whether people wish to believe it or not. All of this, Common Core, amnesty etc. is about setting up the New World Order. They are well on the way to that point right now.
There will be no national pride, or borders.
To people like Jeb and Obama. We are all nothing more than human capital. The preferred ones will be those who go willingly into the night.
‘If you look at the “peaceful protestors” talking part in the recent demonstrations across America,”
Probably should be “taking” not “talking”
“it continues the lies the built Ferguson. “
probably should be “that” not “the”
Proud Public School Graduate??
They don’t ever try to mask their agenda!
It’s been a culture of grievance/appeasement.
Bitch and moan about how America sucks, get your welfare check.
The arrogant in DC act as pontiffs of charity with the sweat from our brow, while pointing guns at us demanding we deliver.
They can go to hell.
probably should be “even” not ever.
this is fun!
I think this would be part of the curriculum with or without common core. This has been going on for years.
That pic of Jebby Tubbush needs one of the Grinch besides it.
Perfect.
I’ll just add this one little thought. If they could read my mind, they would put me in prison after making a law to justify it.
Romney was right. Almost half the country is in the wagon, bitching and moaning that it’s not moving fast enough.
“List at least three equalities.”
1) nobama
2) Common Core
3) evil
You cannot correct me in common core. All answers are equal.
Isn’t it really a Communism Core ?
Rotten Core.
“... going on for years.”
Absolutely! I’d guess it’s been at least 50 years or so. I know it started a long time before I was in school .. and then when a PRINCIPAL told me, “... we can’t have them thinking for themselves ...”. I nearly fell over.
IT’S CALLED INDOCTRINATION. Anybody who believes Common Core is a good thing - well .. I would seriously question their motives.
“I think this would be part of the curriculum with or without common core. This has been going on for years.”
Yes, it has and I can see the heartbreaking results in the attitudes and ideas of my children and grandchildren. The damage that is done doesn’t always present in violent actions. It is a pervasive and effective abolishing of everything that made America great and exceptional.
Even as early as the Year 1886, such was the case. A man by the name of Zacharias Montgomery was denied an important post in government for doing just that. You will read some of his words below.
With that said, those who love liberty must be willing to come forward to declare that it is better to be remembered for standing on and articulating enduring principles of right versus wrong, liberty versus tyranny, than to be praised by the mainstream media and so-called "progressives."
Here are excerpted portions of the words of Zacharias Montgomery in his 1886 Book entitled "Poison Drops in the United States Senate . . . ." Although his treatise dealt primarily with the public school question, the following remarks might be helpful to those who, today, are concerned by what passes for "public education."
Excerpts from Zacharias Montgomery:
"My countrymen, disguise the fact as we may, there is in this country to-day, and in both the political Parties, an element which is ripe for a centralized despotism. There are men and corporations of vast wealth, whose iron grasp spans this whole continent, and who find it more difficult and more expensive to corrupt thirty odd State Legislatures than one Federal Congress. It was said of Nero of old that he wished the Roman people had but one head, so that he might cut it off at a single blow. And so it is with those moneyed kings who would rule this country through bribery, fraud, and intimidation.So Zacharias Montgomery in 1886. Read his complete work at HERE."It is easy to see how, with all the powers of government centered at Washington in one Federal head, they could at a single stroke put an end to American liberty.
"But they well understand that before striking this blow the minds of the people must be prepared to receive it. And what surer or safer preparation could possibly be made than is now being made, by indoctrinating the minds of the rising generation with the idea that ours is already a consolidated government ; that the States of the Union have no sovereignty which is not subordinate to the will and pleasure of the Federal head, and that our Constitution is the mere creature of custom, and may therefore be legally altered or abolished by custom.
"Such are a few of the pernicious and poisonous doctrines which ten millions of American children are today drinking in with the very definitions of the words they are compelled to study. And yet the man who dares to utter a word of warning of the approaching danger is stigmatized as an enemy to education and unfit to be men tioned as a candidate for the humblest office.
"Be it so. Viewing this great question as I do, not for all the offices in the gift of the American people would I shrink from an open and candid avowal of my sentiments. If I have learned anything from the reading of history, it is that the man who, in violation of great principles, toils for temporary fame, purchases for himself either total oblivion or eternal infamy, while he who temporarily goes down battling for right principles always deserves, and generally secures, the gratitude of succeeding ages, and will carry with him the sustaining solace of a clean conscience, more precious than all the offices and honors in the gift of man.
"History tells us that Aristides was voted into banishment because he was just. Yet who would not a thousand times rather today be Aristides than be numbered amongst the proudest of his persecutors.
"Socrates, too, in violation of every principle of justice, was con demned to a dungeon and to death. Yet what name is more honored in history than his? And which of his unjust judges would not gladly, hide himself in the utter darkness of oblivion from the with ering scorn and contempt of all mankind ?
"From the noble example of Aristides and of Socrates let American statesmen learn wisdom, and from the undying infamy of their cow ardly time-serving persecutors let political demagogues of today take warning."
Anyone who reads his complete volume will realize this man's ability to see the consequences of what his fellow Americans were advocating in the area of education of youth.
You can't run a global fascist government unless you dumb down the people, and dumbing them down is easier than educating them. The few people Jeb works for are pushing Common Core in order to produce unthinking worker drones. Those same few are pushing porn, faggotry and attacking Christianity at every step in order to produce spiritually impoverished worker drones who have no hope. Those same few are pushing jihad as a means to control by means of fear and beheading, at an individual level, the behavior of the unthinking, amoral, hopeless, spiritually crippled worker drones.
Happy New Year!
Yea. Its not fair to correct anything nowadays due to auto-spell.
Now “correct” mistakes are auto-generated.
