I was pushing my own personal get out the vote drive for education positions. In the end only about half of those republicans who voted for Romney even bothered to vote for university trustees and directors in Michigan.
The simple fact is that liberals fight every fight and conservatives fight when its convenient.
While conservative leaders were sitting on their collective asses being the smartest people in the room, the left took over everything.
If I was a leftist in 2013, I’d be crushing my cigarettes out on the little people too.
Now with Obama, they have all been empowered and are running wild through what remains of America
But as he says - We won the election and you didn't. Get over it.
I see a shooting civil war very soon.
10) Free education for all children in public schools.We let Leftists take our children in the nineteenth century.
Conservatives have had 175 years to wake the hell up.
The school system has been going that way long before the 60’s. My father in the 40’s was saying communist to college professors in the 40’s.

Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
The colleges were teaching from the left during the 1960s, it is one reason that left wing students were so supported, promoted, and magnified by the schools.
The left is like the Gout.
In between flareups, it is destroying the skeleton of the culture and society.
Our family went to see UC Santa Barbara yesterday, since it was on the way during a family trip. In the textbook section of the bookstore, we had a pleasant surprise. Of course there were books about blaxploitation films and gender in the Japanese Genji Tale and such. But on the upside, there was a book by a rabbi about religion and science that was pro-religion, and there was also a book by Phyllis Schafly, of all people.
Anyway, we thought it was pretty cool that not quite all the assigned textbook reading at UCSB was liberal groupthink.
We were not sleeping.
We conscientiously ignored the small and inconsequential appearing constitutional deviations because of the favors from the Treasury it provided. While Americans who favor a constitutional government turned a blind eye to its deconstruction other Americans who favor more from the Treasury had their eyes wide open.
"The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime, and the punishment of his guilt." John Philpot Curran (1750-1817), Irish lawyer, politician. "The Right of Election of the Lord Mayor of Dublin," speech, 10 July 1790, Dublin.
We had not been vigilance.
Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again. Ronald Reagan
we were busy watching Quickdraw McGraw and The Flintstones and Scooby Do and Gilligan's Island and .......
No sh!t!
What did I read yesterday....that Obama is worth over $12 million now? Debbie Whatsherface Schultz is tooling around in a Corvette. How about Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi? Are they living in unheated apartments? There are communists in the Democrat party, but the leaders sure aren’t communist. Who here thinks that Hillary Clinton is figuring out how to give away all their money? And that’s not to say that the real communists won’t jump up and cut the throats of the Democrat leaders and try to take over. But......
“Understand yourself and understand your opponents and in one hundred battles you will not be defeated.”
We must understand that there are communists in the Democrat party, but they are run by con men.....thieves......pickpockets. Our strategy should be directed against thieves and not against communists. Destroy the Democrat party, and the communists have no place to hide.
Listen to this man. What he says is entirely correct. A lot of the campus radicals never left the campus.
I have been hearing something about Common Core on Glenn Beck but just yesterday on our local radio this is already being tested in our schools here. From what I could gather from that short report, the teachers seem to like it.
Didn’t we know this all along. Look at our schools today. We are lucky if they can sign their names when they leave school. Students today can’t add, subtract, or divide. They are unable to spell or complete sentences and surely know little or anything about America except the lies fed to them by the progressives
