Absolutely.
Pray for me...I live in PAC 10 country. lol
Bless my heart. ;o)
“We’re gonna have to move if Obama wins. There won’t be anything left worth staying for.”
WOW!
I had no idea about those sentiments.
Thank you so much for sharing them with us.
Of course, if he wins, there won’t be anything left worth staying for most of us, will there?
We were shocked because our children have been telling us about all the Obama supporters among their classmates. Our daughter in high school has a great time pointing out Obama’s flaws in her government class. Her teacher is a McCain/Palin supporter. She thinks she may have one or two teachers who support Obama. (out of seven) Our sons think their teachers are predominantly Republican as well. (they started off the year with all liberal teachers at a charter school, but we took them out of that school.)
Bless your heart indeed!
(We live in Pac-10 country as well. We LOL when these folks talk about football. But when it comes to basketball and baseball and softball, these folks do just fine.)
Are you SERIES?! This is HUGH!!
Seriously though.... You heard that and it is a common sentiment?
Just like the "urban" neighborhood in Ohio (I forget where) where they asked the local population who they would be voting for and all the reporter got was apathy. I think one woman said that most of the neighborhood wasn't planning on voting.
“...but we took them out of that school.”
The very best thing you could do for your kids.
It’s funny that it was a Charter school, though. Those schools were supposed to be less progressive.
Thankfully, there appear to be some PUMA teachers involved.
Your kids seem to be in very good schools. Thankfully, they don’t seem to be at the point where they want to regulate “thoughts”.
LOLOLOL!
I don’t like the PAC 10.
I’m SEC through and through.
I remember growing up with USC, Cal State, and others.
We were treated as pig’s slop.
I don’t like the PAC 10, and I can’t wait for the SEC to bull doze them.
It’s hard to tell whether it is a common sentiment or not. After hearing our high school attending daughter talk about her classmates’ political leanings, we assumed this area would go for Obama. However, these people from the grocery store are openly concerned about an Obama presidency. I would expect such talk in the Republican areas of town. But not in our area. There are a ton of liberals in this city, but they live in the WHITE areas. (go figure) They are typically Obama worshippers. The most anti-Obama talk I’ve heard around here comes from middle class Mexican-Americans. We live in Arizona, and we expect McCain to win here.
Oh, the charter school was a better school, but hubby had a personality conflict with one of the teachers, and it would not have been a good thing for any of our children who had to deal with her for them to stay at the school. And the whole staff was liberal to the core! The school where they are now is rated horribly, but we have found the teachers to be much better than expected. And they are McCain type Republicans. (not PUMAs) We are finding that liberals really don’t like to teach in the schools of their constituents. They want to teach the smart, rich children. (until just now, I have never really thought about this, but it’s true. The only real liberal teachers our children have had were at “gifted” schools and schools for overachievers. This holds true for every state where we’ve lived during their schooling years. MI, NM, VA, and AZ)
Our experience is purely anecdotal as hubby just pointed out to me. But I’ll stick to my assertion that the teachers at schools for gifted/over-achievers are predominantly rabid liberals. And I’m not saying that I didn’t like some of these people. Just like I don’t dislike all PAC-10 supporters. heh.
Better a school that challenges children taught by liberals than one staffed by “conservatives” (and I have very rarely come across a conservative school teacher in NY, NJ, and FL) that includes the retards.
I know that your story is anecdotal, but it reminds me of other stories.
You are a hoot, and a half!

Good news over here, nuclear assault on Obama, up to 400 Million to be spent by the time the election gets here.
I love your posts.
But...let them stand on their own.
Don’t be post pimp, please.
(Smiling and nodding my head at your post.)
“Oh balls. Good little marxist is spewing the party line. Fear us obama MSM, we’re coming to vote in numbers you have never seen before...”
I want you on the ticket! That got me thinking positive.
Your screen name isn't sarcasm, apparently.
It is almost 100% sarcasm. Actually, the media almost never tells the truth, especially during election time.
As for his becoming alarmed with Sarah's banter, BS. Biden has hit much harder IMHO and that's the role they're supposed to play and she's doing a fantastic job.
If you can’t disagree with the Democrats in a political campaign, then the REVOLUTION is already OVER!
And we’ve lost.
How pathetic.
