I like the way this author holds the liberals' feet to the fire later in the piece.

I guess they don’t want “American” tax dollars to pay for their schools, their salaries, their health insurance, and their fat pensions either.

Wow. This story has been going all week. Next time teacher, just smack him when he is not doing his work and drawing a picture instead. lol. Sorry but this story is so distorted in so many ways.

While the piece was a fun read, this story is stupid. The kid was goofing off and drawing instead of doing whatever work he was supposed to be doing.

[taxcontrol]

What is NOT being said is that according to the principal, the boy was drawing at a time when he should have been doing something else.

If that is the case. If the boy was in fact drawing when he should have been doing something else, then moral hazzard applies here. The boy should not be rewarded or encouraged to disobey the teacher (not working on the assigned task).

How ‘bout a nice Parent/Teacher conference???

“Nice” being rather vague...

Art - now if he drew a portrait of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Kim Il Sung, Ho Chi Minh, or a revolutionary holding a red flag with the perquisite slogans, that would be OK.

One by one the symbols that reflect our history, (what made America great) are being suppressed and denied. Our youth are indeed being brain washed to believe in social justice, socialism and communism as better ways than freedom, liberty, the right of personal property, capitalism, rights of free speech, right to self defense and the 2nd amendment right to own guns, etc., ... those wanting one world government, and one world currency, which would require all the poor nations to have a ongoing flow of monies from the rich nations. Some nations will not actually give portions, claiming their own poor need their monies. Of course, they are actually stealing the monies of their nation. Venezuela and Cuba, Russia come to mind instantly.

There are people out there that hate our flag, hate this country, hate white people and hate the American way of life.

America bad, white people bad, has been taught in our public schools from *many* years.
