Now the military has invaded our grade schools. If schools in Alaska want to help students academically, they would bring in scholars and education experts, not soldiers. The effort in Alaska has little to do with test scores and literacy. It’s about inculcating the young to the presence of the military.

We as teachers cannot afford to sit on the sidelines any longer. It cannot be business-as-usual as we seek to bring enlightenment to our over 100 charges each day, nonchalantly plowing through our benchmarks and state standards. There is something deeply disturbing about our profession, and the time has come to shed light on our role as the mentors of America's youth.

The
futures of our children have been given away by sellout politicians to foreign interests
in the name of fighting global poverty. Their ability to own, work,
and live on the land has largely been ripped away from them at break-neck
speed by Agenda 21 implementation, and no one seems to care. Even
in the so-called “patriot” community, Agenda 21 is rarely
discussed despite the fact that it is highly documentable, and every
issue centers around its implementation, which is now 17 years underway.

The word "brainwashing" refers to a planned, step-by-step attempt to
"wash" family-taught beliefs from the minds of those who oppose
government ideology. In America, it would mean replacing the old
Biblical values and world view with a new way of thinking that would
support a totalitarian agenda. In other words, every child must become
a peace child, a willing and active servant of a new world order.

Thanks to feckless political leaders in California, the terms "mom and dad" are now completely banned in the public school system and teachers are being ordered to use euphemisms for those terms. In addition, "husband and wife" are also banned under this new law signed by Gov. Schwarzenegger, which also mandates public schools to allow boys to use girls restrooms and locker rooms, and vice versa, if they choose to do so. Schwarzenegger also worked together to establish Senate Bill 777 and Assembly Bill 394 as a law that institutionalizes the promotion of homosexuality, bisexuality, transgenderism and other alternative lifestyle choices within the public school system.

The process that began in the 1960s to transform America's elementary, middle and high schools into places where students could literally graduate without being able to read their diploma, where the teaching ofmathematics was reduced to mush without rules, and where it was more important for students to feel really good about themselves than having to measure up scholastically with millions in foreign nations, has now reached the campuses of America's colleges and universities.

If you are reading this, you are already searching for solutions to problems caused by the government. Each day, government politicians and bureaucrats impose more and more restrictions on our freedoms. Government’s tyrannical gun controls, privacy violations, the confiscation of property, and claiming ownership of the fruits of our labor ~ and even of our bodies ~ are worsening daily.

I guess parents are still waiting for some miracle to fix the unfixable. One would have thought by now America’s parents would have realized that “more money for education” is nothing more than empty words when it comes to the Federal Department of Education and the destruction that agency has done to America’s children in the area of education. When are America’s parents going to catch on to that big lie pitched every election cycle? Does the problem ever get fixed from one Congress to the next? No. One president to the next? No. One governor to the next?No.

As I will explain below, the claim that all children have a right to an education ends up hurting the very children it was intended to help. I will therefore ask a seemingly shocking question - do all children have a right to an education? If they do, public-school apologists are correct in assuming that we need government to guarantee that right so no child gets left behind.

A friend of mine recently wrote to me saying, “My wife is retiring in June after thirty years of teaching. A high school degree means nothing. No Child Left Behind is an even bigger joke. It is a scary situation that could lead us to third world status, but we are prepared for that since we already teach English as a second language.”

You ask me why tuition is so high. You ask me why these liberal universities,
"Oh, they are not paying their fair share." These liberal universities have
endowments, Harvard, $35 billion in endowment. They are getting return on that
investment of 23%.

To be politically correct our children are being taught to be tolerant to everybody and everything, regardless of how bizarre it may seem to our American way of life. Public schools are having students learn passages form the Koran and study some of the laws handed down by Mohammed. Our children are taught that Islam is a religion of peace and Allah is just another name for the God of the Holy Bible.

Teachers called it “affirmative action grading.” Students learned they could goof off, never turn in homework and still be advanced to the next grade. By the time they reached their senior year, they enjoyed full-fledged avoidance of academic work for passing grades. They graduated, essentially illiterate, to move on to “affirmative action jobs.” In other words, they got something for nothing! Then, they took jobs where they ‘showed up’ for a paycheck.

On Monday, April 7th, The Boston Herald featured an article by Michael Graham about school teachers in Massachusetts who have failed an eighth to tenth grade level test numerous times and are allowed to remain as teachers in the public schools soon to be backed by the Massachusetts Democrats in Senate who unanimously voted for a waiver program for teachers who fail the test at least three times. This article is coming right on the heels of California courts seeking to test homeschoolers to qualify them as teachers before they can educate their own children.
