No surprise here. The brainwashing is nationwide and has been going on for probably 80 years.

"It’s time for conservatives to get back in the education game."

We are back...in our homeschools.

Until the NEA is defanged and public education is privatized this problem will continue.

She didn’t sign the note because she feared that she would be connected to pro-American views and be punished by her school.

Very likely, though she may have also been embarrassed by her penmanship and grammar.

So was anyone else reminded of Julia passing her note to Winston in 1984?

I've been ranting here for years: the Culture War is real, we're WAY behind and the stakes are high. Assuming these kids will grow out of it in time to save America is wishful thinking. I'm a cultural warrior, it gets me in hot water, but it is better than waiting for lock-step liberal teachers and professors to change their tactics. All Freepers are freedom ambassadors waiting to be activated.

Go.

BUMP to the VERY top of the LIST!!! Pass, bump, ping, send this along to everyone you know. This is what "ed-joo-kay-shun" has regressed to in Amerika.

Joseph Farah fans take heed: There will be NO "Taking Amerika Back" if we do not takeour children back from state sponsored indoctrination.

Unfortunately this article was printed months ago and I can't find it online anymore.

But in reference to taking back our schools one classroom at a time...A Berkeley, CA preschool, well the teachers/adults that run it, had the PRESCHOOL children protesting. Made disgusting/derrogatory signs against our President and saying 'give peace a chance.'

I sat here staring at the web article. These are toddlers with their pictures in the press for the world to see. They are being taught, praised and rewarded to disrespect the President and call him names for a side show agenda for the 'teachers/adults'. No one is outraged about this?

I saw that as no worse then the Pals teaching the six year olds to handle guns.

The web discription still comes up for this article; but the CA Patriot doesn't have the archives up and running yet.

And then it hit me. She was obviously scared to death. She was scared to tell me her views face-to-face because students and teachers were standing around when she approached me.

They are scared, very scared. During the election my daughter who attends college asked me for a Bush Button, but told me she would have to hide it.

She voted for Bush but had to tell her college "friends" that she voted for Gore. I cannot stress enough how out spoken she is. At home she has never been afraid to go against the "popular opinion" even among her peers. It made me feel mad as well as sad that she would feel that much pressure to have to lie about who she voted for. She told me that if she told the truth they would never leave her alone.

My husband is currently running the school-of-education gauntlet here in Oklahoma. He spent 24 years in the military, much of it training 18 year olds not to break high-tech stuff worth millions of dollars, then to actually fix and use that high-tech stuff. He has a mind like a steel trap and knows more history than many of his professors of history know. But he has to keep jumping through hoops to prove he's fit to teach. He may get his teaching certificate before he's 50...he retired at 44 and started back in college the next year. He has more than 160 credit hours of college credit. He is TIRED of working two jobs and going to school, but he BELIEVES that the high schools need more conservative teachers. He believes that what he has to teach is important. IF they let him teach an alternative to the union line I'll be surprised. He's great with teenagers and can keep them in line and paying attention better than I ever believed...but will they let him TEACH? When???

This is a very powerful story that should be cited as widely as possible. Those who have the links should send this to Brit Hume, O'Reilly and others at Fox News. I say the same as this writer, Wow!

This is the Ithaca taxpayer-funded "alternative" (ie, hippie) school that let's students graduate in majors like basket weaving and political activism, and invited convicted cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal to be its graduation speaker .

No surprise that they would discourage any thing but ultra-liberal thought.

Ithaca is the City of Evil.

That's the sort of thing I would expect from a cult... weird, very weird.

Meanwhile, in Bizarro Ithaca...

(Ithaca, NY) Pro-Democracy demonstrators burn a PRI flag on
the Ithaca Commons. The demonstrators gathered to
protest Ithaca's resolution opposing the use of force
to free the Iraqi people. (Satire-The Comedian)

Not on subject, but that downward slant isn't a very good sign in regards to the girl's mental state and self view.
It should at least be level across the page. Very dejected indicator.
