From Michelle Malkin:

PUBLIC SCHOOL TO MARINE: KEEP OUT

By Michelle Malkin   ·   June 02, 2005 07:55 PM

The ever-vigilant Neal Boortz was all over the story of a middle school that refused to allow a Marine to come visit a class of sixth-graders that had written him letters while he served in Iraq. After getting pressure from Boortz's listeners and others across the country, the local superintendent has now apologized.

Ranting Right Wing Howler
highlights the principal's sorry excuse for blocking the Marine, Sgt. Zach Richardson, from visiting:

"My decision not to allow Zach Richardson to speak with the students on Monday came out of my regard for the safety and welfare of our children."

If you had to entrust your child to either a Marine or a public school pinhead, is there any doubt which one you'd choose?

More on the callous treatment of Richardson at Conservative Dialysis, Of the Mind, The Will to Exist

Lord, what fools these educrats be.

Superintendent John Jackson has offered a written apology, saying that the situation could have been handled differently.

The only written thing I demand to see from these Democrats is their written resignations.

Greene County is very rural - kinda surprising for a Marine to be treated this way. On Veteran's Day 2003, a rural South Carolina school had me and several other OIF vets (and vets of other wars, too) to lunch. The kids put on a show for us.

Sorry just doesn't cut it in this case. The Principle must be blasted with my space modulator.

OK, fellow vets, help this citizen get a clue. We all need to write to her and help her get an education. Start a letter writing campaign.

Instead of teaching future leaders of this country about patriotism, the ultra-liberal principal chose to teach them anti-patriotism.

My name is Ulrica Corbett and I am a native of Miami, Florida. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona Beach, FL and my Master's degree in Educational Leadership from the University of Central Florida (UCF) in Orlando, FL.

Prior to becoming a teacher I worked in Miami as a probation and parole officer. After successfully working with some youthful offenders I felt that I could possibly effect a change with more youth in a different setting. Since then I have taught high school English, Spanish and ESOL and middle school English. I have worked as an administrator in Florida, Alabama and Georgia in elementary, middle and high schools.

I enjoy reading, solving crossword puzzles, and watching sports - especially football, basketball and NASCAR!

I am excited to be a part of the Greene County School system and anticipate great things happening at Carson Middle School. Our Carson Middle School students will be Learning Today and Leading Tomorrow. We will be on a steady quest for excellence.

Everytime I think of saving a few bucks by putting my kids in government schools, I read a story like this and come to my senses.

This may be a rural town, but the principal obviously went to college where she was probably indoctrinated in anti US/anti military propaganda. she needs to be deprogrammed and send to the pasture wence she came.

The enemy within strikes again. Send her packing, hopefully to a school in Mecca where her true beliefs are better suited.

No offense to those of you on the forum who hold degrees, none the less, some of the least logical people I've known, have had doctorates.

This woman is unfit to be an administrator.

Congress should make a law where any public school system in America refuses to allow military on it grounds be recruiters or a speaker like this case would be ineligible for federal aid. From the School Lunch program to Special Ed all that federal money would be gone if the school acts disrespectful towards the military.

ABSOLUTELY GALACTICALLY OUTRAGEOUS!

The woman should have been tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail with a one way ticket.

Sheesh.

No wonder our country is sliding into the Shrillery and Billdo Cesspool.

GRRRRRRR
