So the teacher is a Communist extremist and an idiot.
Well, isn't that special...
“We have been successful too because Americans have known that ones status at birth was not a permanent station in life. You might not be able to control your circumstances but you could control your response to your circumstances. And your greatest ally in doing so was a quality education.
Let me ask you, though, today, when I can look at your zip code and can tell whether you are going to get a good education can I really say that it doesnt matter where you came from it matters where you are going. The crisis in K-12 education is a grave threat to who we are.
My mom was a teacher I have the greatest respect for the profession we need great teachers not poor or mediocre ones. We need to have high standards for our students self-esteem comes from achievement not from lax standards and false praise. And we need to give parents greater choice particularly poor parents whose kids most often minorities are trapped in failing neighborhood schools. This is the civil rights struggle of our day.
If we do anything less, we will condemn generations to joblessness, hopelessness and dependence on the government dole. To do anything less is to endanger our global economic competitiveness. To do anything less is to tear apart the fabric of who we are and cement a turn toward grievance and entitlement.”
— Condoleezza Rice 2012 RNC Speech
This teacher, from just this post cannot be classified as a communist extremist, she may be, but from this posting alone we cannot make that claim. The effects she sees are absolutely real, and are disgusting. I am sure I will disagree with this teacher on many things, but what she sees is not imaginary or communist, its real, and like Ms Rice states above, if we do not fix it, we will lock this entire nation into entitlement and mediocrity.
