Exactly. Classical Education has been dead for a hundred years in most schools....the ability to “think” like a Jefferson is almost completely ERASED by the “mandatory” Prussian indoctrination system (public schools) with the help of the sodomites who have had the main control over all movies and scripts and attitudes so they could program desires into little children and instant gratification to destroy all virtue which will make them into compliant slaves for the state.

Without virtue in people—there is no Freedom possible-—never-—that is what Socrates knew and how the Cultural Marxists KNEW they would collapse civilization-—destroy Virtue in children with Sex Ed and promoting and glorifying Vice 24/7.

Western Civ knew for thousands of years until Marx/Darwin and the Postmodernists decided to “kill God” (Christianity) so that Reason (Classical Education which includes the Bible) would be erased in the minds of the new generations-—that is what Alan Bloom’s book proves-—the destruction of Wisdom, Truth, Virtue in “The Closing of the American Mind” in the 80’s——Feelings of ignorant people control “Good and Evil”today because so many people have no common sense and no ability to discern Good and Evil (no Wisdom of the Ages).

Only the Amish will have the ability to have Common Sense (believe in the Laws of Nature and nature’s God)——everyone else will have been programmed to feel a perverted, warped way devoid of Reason and Wisdom by artificial institutions or TV screens, etc. (DEHUMANIZED).

Get your children OUT of public schools and back into the Natural Family-—and interact with them, educate them with Real Life Experiences, hard work and Classical BOOKS, and nature so they have Common Sense and feel compassion for others.

It’s to the point of a childish temper tantrum:
“You disagree with me on one little thing
I must hate you
I must destroy you
I must kill you”
Yet some of these are in positions of influence, if not in charge. Many are like the crazy Red Guard cadres, where I think there was competition of who could be the most vicious to demonstrate loyalty to the revolution.

Not really.....it’s simply a matter that the Demorats won these past 8 years...and the republicans pretty much joined with their agenda.......

I am afraid the problem goes back much further than that. Democrats are very good at picking reliably liberal Supreme Court Justices. Republicans historically bat about 50/50.

George W. Bush gave us Alito (a fairly reliable conservative) and Roberts (a disappointing moderate working his way to liberal). George H.W. Bush gave us Clarence Thomas (a reliable conservative) and David Souter (a liberal). Reagan gave us Scalia (a reliable conservative), O'Connor (a moderate) and Kennedy (a moderate sometimes and a liberal other times, mostly depending on whether homosexual rights are at issue).

The problem began in the late 1930s and early 1940s, when Roosevelt finally managed to pack the court with socialists intent on expanding the federal government. The problem became permanent in the mid 1960s with the Abington School District v. Schempp case (in which the Court decided that the First Amendment prohibits prayers in school) and the Griswold v. Connecticut case (in which the Court decided to stop pretending to read the Constitution and instead to rely on emanations and penumbra).

The Constitution says whatever 5 out of 9 Supreme Court Justices say it says.
Be afraid.
Be very afraid.

Conservatives are so worried about the foreign enemy Islam but they don't realize the left is even more dangerous as they are hiding their true selves even better than Islam. and the left number in the 10’s of millions already in the USA and have taken over the media , academia , etc.

Islamism and the peculiarly fascist version of communism the Liberals embrace will walk arm-in-arm down the path to the destruction of Conservatives, and then will turn, one upon the other. It is a foolish alliance bound by the tactics of eliminating shared opposition.

While the Liberals think they will prevail, there are well over a Billion followers of the Prophet who will crush them if they don't awaken to whom they are in bed with.

"I can’t believe even on this site people don’t seem to know or care what Obama is going to do to the Internet:"

I have been writing and calling various reps to urge killing this idea - and repeatedly urging others to do so as well. I am very disappointed that members of congress don't seem connected, or up to speed on this issue.

I get the feeling that it is another beltway staple in the making that will give them a new bureaucracy to run needing more money along with providing an endless campaign topic into the future like social security and southern border.

Dear Susie,

Working with high powered transmission equipment, was the curse and blessing of no children.

If you remember which social/ethnic group was it that fought for distribution of their material under First Amendment policies?
