"Any "teacher" ever dumped their personal agenda on my child, they'd be teaching fractions from traction."

I share your concern, but unless you plan on sending your children to private schools all the way through college, get ready for the liberal awakening of your life.

I attribute 95% of all anti-American war protesting flat at the feet of the institution commonly referred to as the National Education Association

It (the NEA) would make Lenin and Marx glow with exceeding joy at the throngs of communists and socialist produced from it's classrooms (starting early - all the way through college).

You don't have to accept the NEA agenda. It's YOUR money, they're YOUR children, and they're OUR schools. They may throw that crap at your children; it's up to you to wash it off when they get home.

But I agree that the schools -- especially those dominated by the NEA -- are the enemy.

We have our son in a private school and I just don't know how much longer we are going to be able to afford it. The values and respect they incorporate into the program is something I wish we could see in public schools but it's just not happening.

I have a friend who's child is the same age as mine and he attends a public school....they had taken pictures of the children gathered around a table and one of the children was flashing gang signals using his hands. I was upset but not just because of this childs gang signals....I was upset that the school had blown the picture up, framed it and hung it up on the wall right next to the door. The picture is of a third grade class.

You have a point:
