I wish this could reach the millions of voters it will take to STOP this from the results at the end of this POWERFUL POWERPOINT! We have little to go!

re: “Actually, we don’t have government firemen. Ours is a completely private volunteer ( and highly trained ) PRIVATE organization.”
______________________
We have volunteer firemen as well in our state in some of the more rural communities. However, these volunteers are trained by the “government” firemen. That is probably also true of your volunteer firemen.
“The NEA doesn’t set curriculum guidelines or textbook guidelines - their influence is purely political in nature”
This may hold true where you are, but on the east coast, they control nearly everything, including curriculum.
re: “Your post deserves a point by point rebuttal. The main point of this thread is not education, so perhaps I will response by creating another distinct thread.”
____________________
You are the one who brought up education on this thread. I’ve noticed that you nearly always in your posts take every opportunity to somehow slam the public schools no matter what the point of a thread is.
Also, you can save your time on a “point by point” rebuttal. I already know what you believe and what you are going to say. You and I have been through all this before. The only reason I responded to you this time was because I just get tired of your constant sniping and degrading of conservatives who are trying to make a positive difference in our public schools.
If you want to rebutte - go ahead. But, I don’t want to waste my time trying to change your opinion. I really don’t think you are open to that.
” Please read post #50.”
You’re on to it wintertime. I agree with all of those points. I just wish though, so much, that there was some more immediate thing we could do.

I know that what you say is very true - I’ve heard the same from teachers who have taught back east. They all hated teaching back there, too.
I know there are some really bad cities or states in regard to public schools. But, the thing that bugs me about wintertime is that she paints all public schools and public school teachers with the same broad brush - that we’re all evil, marxist, blood-sucking frauds - and, that just isn’t true nor is it fair to thousands and thousands of good, hard-working conservatives who happen to be teachers in our public schools.
Are there problems? - absolutely, but nothing that voting in majorities of conservatives on the local and nationl level wouldn’t fix - or at least that would go a long way toward getting things back on the right track. Anyway, that’s all I was wanting to say. Encourage those who are conservative to keep going - get more conservatives into the education system. That would help a lot too.
Well, what are you personally going to do about it?
“Well, what are you personally going to do about it?’
What I can, but be assured it won’t include spending any more time responding to your spiteful infantile rubbish.
Well, I agree with you but the SC has been trashing and hashing the Constitution for years. What makes you think the courts or anyone for that matter in government will do anything to put it back together?
I’m burned out with Freepers who are mostly hot air.
Here is a place to learn about how to begin fighting the media. Mostly it requires a will.
Check out the stuff in the left side how to indentify, the activist handbook etc
Most is outdated but is all that remains of 2 years of very hard FReeper work.
I disagree. It has for the three years that I have been award of the thug been completely obvious that the anti-American socialist who now occupies our White House hates freedom, hates our constitution, and hates the American way of life. There is nothing "increasing" about the obviousness of these facts.
I wish this could reach the millions of voters it will take to STOP this from the results at the end of this POWERFUL POWERPOINT! We have little to go!
Try imagining a mustache on that. (Shudder.)
