WASHINGTON--The National Education Association, the largest teachers union, usually concentrates on convincing legislators, against ample contrary evidence, that increasing the number and pay of teachers is certain to improve schools. But now the NEA has gone into wartime mode and become a sensitivity tutor for parents and teachers. The result makes one wish the NEA would stick to misleading legislators. It has furrowed its brow and thought really, really hard about what parents and teachers should do with children on Sept. 11.

So-called "public" schools (i.e., imported Prussian socialist schooling) must be abolished. They were brought to America by Boston socialists for the purpose of unravelling the Republic established by the Constitution. They have done their job well.

What I find laughable is that the NEA is posting these guidelines a YEAR after the September 11 attacks. Don't they think the parents have already said something to their children, by now? Methinks that they just don't like WHAT the parents have told their children. Gotta slip in those infamous "gray areas", you know.

Yep. That is why history will be kind to Bubba. We have socialists buying, printing, and choosing textbooks. Combine that with the socialist school system, and Bubba will be thoroughly sanitized for the kiddies.
