Thoughts? Would they be arrested for teaching without a license?

Call them Constitution lectures?

That's actually a pretty good idea.

Turn this into a positive learning experience that will drive the left nuts.

Speaking of which, I attended a great seminar today in NW Wisconsin about the founding of America. It was called Making of America, and it was put on by the National Center for Constitutional Studies. Our guest lecturer was Lester Pearce, an Arizona judge and brother of State Sen. Russell Pearce, who wrote SB 1070.

Sounds like the (cough! “sick”) teachers need a class in the constitution, along with the Organizing for America thugs.

They teachers could attend if they STFU and don’t interrupt.

My thought is that it would just drive the left bonkers if this came down to a competition on gaining the attention of the kids they are supposed to be teaching.

If you all don’t want to teach them, can we give it a shot?

My point wasn’t to educate the teachers. They are beyond hope.

Last month, when they were reading the Constitution in the chamber, a friend who is a product of the PS system came by. When they were reading about the president being of a certain age, and such, he said, “Really? I never knew that”.

This is the education our kids are lacking. I don’t see how anyone can justify teaching anything else if this is neglected.

By the way, one of my sons has developed the hobby of reading constitutions from other countries. He is amazed at how bad they are. Basically, they start off requiring the people to do or be certain things, not the government.

I was responding to another post. There’s always hope for the majority of little ones. It’s a good idea.

Maybe that's why he had no problem voting for a Kenyan for president.

Good idea, start with geography and the map of 57 states with two more stops to go.

It is not against the law to teach anybody anything.

Good. They can start with Article IV.

Article IV Section 4:

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Obama is openly working to undermine the Republican Form of Government in Wisconsin by blocking the state's legislative process, essentially attacking it by using its apparatus against itself. He is effectively supporting the overthrow of the legislative process in Wisconsin by ignoring the Wisconsin State Constitution, just as he is ignoring the United States Constitution.

Obama, and his henchmen should be blocked and restrained from approaching Wisconsin legislators on the grounds that it violates the federal government's Article IV requirement to "guarantee... a Republican Form of Government" in Wisconsin.

Governor Walker should sue Obama in federal court on the grounds that his supporting the storming of the Wisconsin capitol and AWOL Democrats is unconstitutional, and maybe even a high crime and misdemeanor.

I thought it was a good idea. The problem is that many of us have to work.
