“Liberals have long realized that, if they can win the battle over what is taught in schools, they will win elections.” -Phyllis Schlafly, Townhall
Barack Obama’s plans to reach out to millions of suggestible school children has met with parental consternation. Their collective alarm is a bit tardy. Radical Leftists already have control of the public school system. The grand doyen of public education is Obama’s cherished comrade, Bill Ayers.

“We wanted the focus to be on kids,” the First Lady said, “because you can affect children’s behavior so much more easily than you can adults.” — Michelle Obama taking about her vegetable garden.
She goes on to say that Malia and Sasha, after learning certain things, then “monitor our behavior, more so than I was monitoring them.”
So if you can affect children’s behavior so much more easily than you can that of adults, and if those children then influence their parents’ “behavior,” why not go directly into the classroom?

I agree with Mrs. Schlafly. Where have parents been all this time???
you obviously “have no racial justice frame”
Wasn’t it Hitler who said something like “ Give me your children and I’ll give you a new world”?
A combination of Marxism and fascism is our nation's **most** serious threat. Government K-12 schools are the Marxist-fascists’ **most** powerful weapon.
Yet...It is plain from the many posts here on Free Republic that few conservatives recognize the enemy ( Marxism and fascism). Some, such as this author, do see there is a problem but fail to call the enemy what it is, and persist in using confusing terminology such as “radical leftism”. And...Very few conservatives understand that government schools are the enemy's **most** important weapon against freedom.
Conservatives have consistently failed to remove their own children from the government schools, and have **UTTERLY** and **COMPLETELY** failed to set up private alternatives so that every child in this nation could have access to a tuition-free, private, God-centered conservative education.
I have read innumerable posts on this forum from conservatives who wrongly believe that shutting down the Department of Education , local control, or abolishing unions will fix the government schools. All of these posters complete miss an **important** principle:
ANY GOVERNMENT POWERFUL ENOUGH TO IMPOSE YOUR POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS, AND CULTURAL WORLDVIEW ON OTHER PEOPLE'S CHILDREN IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO IMPOSE MARXIST-FASCISM ON YOURS!!!!!
Government K-12 schools must be abolished for the above reason but also for another:
On the very first day in kindergarten a child learns that the government can force money from his neighbor to pay for a service his parents want for FREE. The children learns this lesson every school day for 13 years! And...His teachers teach him that free government schooling is a **right**! Well, after this 13 year long object lesson in socialism is it any wonder that citizens vote for governmnt paid for ( “free”) retirement, medicine, health care, transportation, entertainment, food, housing, clothing..etc.?
Government schooling must be abolished, but few conservatives recognize this. Government schooling is killing our nation!!
Personally, I am exasperated.
i started a college class last fall where the instructor repeatedly told the students to vote for obama.
meanwhile, he bad-mouthed mccain-palin.
What parents don’t understand is Obama has a vast pool to conduct research and begin accumulating information of the parents themselves.
I would not be surprised if he is beginning to use the kids to accumulate knowledge of the parents lifestyle, guns, cars owned, size of house, type of corporal punishment being done, etc. Do you see what is happening here?
Radical Leftists have control of the schools”
Another poster / bumper sticker for the increase in Charter schools and private schools and homeschooling.
Missed this, good post!
Spying ( even on family members) has always been the hallmark of all tyrannies.
The Left hates nothing like they hate charter schools & homeschooling:
