Michelle could learn a lot about pressure for Texas to turn blue. It’s not like BO who is still campaigning and his minions look at it and say, ah forget it.

No, they go after it.

Watch Out!

The bottom line here is some federal hanky-panky, which was created by blue state ivory tower types similar to those who ruined black education with “whole language English”, created by none other than Noam Chomsky. (Who should go down in history as the “most oppressively racist and destructive white man to ever keep down the black man, impoverishing and ruining tens of millions of lives.”)

The new horror is called Common Core Curriculum, and while Obama definitely does not want to be blamed for it, he has tried to force it on schools across the US.

This Texas school is now blaming this crapola on CCC, which they had wholeheartedly embraced. That everyone involved with this has not been immediately fired, and a statewide purge of CCC initiated, shows that those forces in favor of CCC are now entrenched enough in the Texas establishment to protect it.

“Only after parents and teachers across the state blew the whistle on radical CSCOPE lesson plans (including designing a new flag for a socialist lesson) did the state take steps to rein in the CSCOPE zealots.”

If you want to take back the country, conservatives must attend local village council meetings, county board meetings and school board meetings. Taking back the government from the leftists requires vigilance, and it starts in your local neighborhoods.

If you live in a strong home-rule state, you can likely throw out every leftist in your local government with recall petitions.

If you don’t have a constitutional sheriff in your county, elect one now.

If you don’t know how to organize, visit your local VFW or American Legion post. They can teach you about leadership structure and strategy.

A grassroots revolt would consist of all high skilled individuals going on strike. The problem is that not all high skilled individuals support Tea Party values. The left may just cut their losses and keep the country running on that tiny group of individuals who don’t mind spending $100,000 on education to be Obama’s personal handmaidens. It won’t matter to them if the standard of living dissolves completely. They’ll just kill whoever needs to be killed and reap the assets.

I no longer believe that conservatives are universally intelligent enough to take back this country. The smart ones will pack their bags and flee with their families to another country before the left finishes building the forced labor camps.

School administrators endorsing, promoting, or simply allowing this crap to happen here should be deported. Certain parts of MI would probably love to have it.

I accept that curriculum should include learning about world cultures. NOT for a damn second do I think it acceptable for dressing up bedsheets and pretending that their screwed up culture is something we would want to immerse ourselves into. Let’s be honest about what goes on there in many of these islamic countries - Christians and Jews are persecuted. Hell, their own people are persecuted (honor killings, violent penalties for breaking sharia law).

The equivalent here would be 1940’s American students dressing up in Nazi uniforms during an immersion into German culture. It’s bullshit.

Which reminds me: Do we or do we not have soldiers on the ground in Afghanistan, Iraq, etc.? I find this curriculum disrespectful to those serving our country overseas risking their lives under our flag.

As Texas goes, so goes the nation.

Especially because Texas and California dominate the purchase of textbooks. The publishers (leftists also) print what these states order and offer it to the rest with little available alternative.

The fight against the federalization of academic standards is a national education Alamo.

Correct analogy. There is no way this mess can be undone from the top down, because the head is rotten to the Core Curriculum. There is a way to totally transform education from the bottom up, it costs virtually nothing to implement, it saves huge amounts of money, and the curricula already exist.

Keywords are our friends: “commoncore; indoctrination; publiceducation; texas;” (for a start)

They help me find it later and they make FR a huge news database, like no other on the web.
