Re-forming Chicago schools into communist re-education facilities.

Surprisingly my three years in a Catholic HS saw overt Marxist instruction on the part of three guys in the Soc St dept and five in the Religion Dept. This was back in the days of Reagan, El Salvador,Pershing Missiles etc. I was quite a bit more liberal back then but I called these folks on their blatant political indoctrination and was told that they were following Catholic Social Action and i should as well. Such a situation has never occured in my 22 years with the NYC schools. I've had plenty of arguments but for the most part the kids are left out of politics. These things may happen in other places but I've been in two schools and my wife inthree and that's been our experience.
No...it's about discrimination toward someone for their ideology. You can talk bad about Communism all day long.
Watch me...communism sucks eggs, communism stinks, communism kills, communism makes you a slave. See...I didn't get struck by lightening!
In my school in NJ there is not one teacher under 35 who is not a total liberal leftist. They were all brainwashed in college.They are like sheep.
Some of the ones I have known have been more like the Borg.
Look at how uncomfortable Hollywood was when Elia Kazan won his lifetime achievement award?

Elia Kazan’s reputation among the Glitterati took a hit when, in 1952, he testified before the House UnAmerican Affairs Committee about his flirtation with the Communist Party in the 1930s.
I might argue that Mr. Kengor is perhaps a bit too easy on the anti-anti communists, as they will opt for Obama's Marxist "changes" over capitalism (which they have been taught to fear and hate) and will readily give up freedoms and property without thinking to question the motives of Obama and his henchpersons.
Obama’s communist connections are not headlines in the mainline press since it too is controlled by the same leftist element.
Thanks for posting the article.
While it explains why conservatives are frustrated, it would have been good if he had offered a couple of ideas of how to attempt to get the message of Obama’s associations to those who do not understand Communism
Here is a comment left on the American Thinker website that deserves more attention-—
It makes sense to me to focus on Obama’s only “executive experience” while he was Chairman of the Board——
WE NEED TO CHANGE THE BILL AYERS ARGUMENT NOW.....The current approach to the Bill Ayers “connection” or “association” is a WEAK ARGUMENT at best on a country that is absolutely drunk on Obama’s Kool-Aid. In other words, the McCain Campaign and the GOP is taking the wrong approach to this. A MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE APPROACH EXISTS AND MUST BE EXECUTED BY BOTH THE GOP AND MCCAIN CAMPAIGNS. THERE IS A SMOKING GUN THAT IS SITTING RIGHT UNDER ALL OF OUR NOSES.
The smoking gun that will resonate with both undecided pure independents, conservative democrats and moderate republicans (where this race will be won or lost) is with the Bill Ayers issue, specifically the Chicago Anneberg Challenge. The current approach is to call Obama on his lie that Ayers was just a “guy that lives in his neighborhood”....we all know the rest of the story. Although this resonates with we conservatives, it has been and will continue to be rebuked by Obama and he can just point to it being a right wing conspiracy theory or smear campaign...this argument is going on deaf ears of the masses that are inebriated on Obama KooAid.
HOWEVER THERE IS NO, ABSOLUTELY NO REBUKING AN ARGUMENT BASED ON FACTS THAT WILL CALL INTO QUESTION “WHAT OBAMA WILL DO” WITH THE MASSIVE FEDERAL EDUCATION BUDGET. Here’s how the McCain Campaign and GOP ads should go......Throw out all arguments relating to the amount of time and meetings Ayers and Obama spent together.
The ad should then talk about “Walter Annenberg’s foundation offering several hundred million dollars to American public schools in the mid-’90s, and William Ayers appling for $50 million for Chicago. The purpose of his application was to secure funds to “raise political consciousness” in Chicago’s public schools. After he won the grant, Ayers’s group (NOT AYERS HIMSELF....Obama keeps pointing to this fact and it should be irrelevant in the context of this argument anyway) chose Barack Obama to distribute the money, as the Chairman of the Board.
It should highlight that this was actual executive experience that Obama has chosen to avoid highlighting. WHY WOULD OBAMA PURPOSELY HIDE ACTUAL EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE.....UNLESS HE HAD SOMETHING TO HIDE. HERE’S WHY AND WHAT HE HAD TO HIDE: Between 1995 and 1999, Obama distributed the $50 million and raised another $60 million from other civic groups to augment it. In doing so, he was following Ayers’s admonition (regardless of Ayers continued involvement) to grant the funds to “external” organizations, like American Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) to pair with schools and conduct programs to radicalize the students and politicize them.
Regardless of the fact that Ayers played a lesser role after the founding in 1995, Barack Obama carried out Ayers vision throughout the entire tenure of his involvement (i.e. pumping money into left wing groups to “radicalize students.”) THIS IS WHAT OBAMA WAS HIDING......IS THIS THE TYPE OF EXPENDITURES AMERICA WANTS TO SEE IN THE FEDERAL EDUCATION APPROPRIATIONS IN AN OBAMA ADMINISTRATION?
We need to stop talking about his not being able to lead and start talking about his vision for change’s being the WRONG KIND OF CHANGE. THE INEBRIATED OBAMA DISCIPLES NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHAT THEY ARE ASKING FOR....THEY JUST MIGHT GET IT.....AND THEY NEED TO QUESTION THIS. If they start to question why Obama purposely hid actual executive experience, they will start to question his BS arguments about deregulation causing the current financial crisis, etc. etc. etc.
Dems' connection to Communists isn't news, because their party has absorbed all the old Communists.
