This is the kind of stuff that aggravates me to no end. And it is why my respect for the teaching profession has slowly declined. Just teach, please. Save your liberal propaganda for your kids, not mine.
Private schools and school vouchers. Pro-choice in education.

This is really disturbing, although it wouldn't be much of a problem if the teaching profession were a little more balanced, politically. One example from my immediate family:

Older brother - elementary teacher; pure socialist.
Sister-in-law - college instructor; borderline Commie.
Cousin - elementary teacher, fairly liberal (too young to know better).
Aunt - elementary teacher, very conservative (how'd that happen?)

That makes 3 out of 4 liberal teachers in my family alone, and in general, we lean pretty heavily to the right.

This does not make me feel very good about the teaching profession as a whole.

Revionist history at its worse need anymore reason to abolish the dept of education and return to home or private schooling i mean these text books are nothing but leftists propeganda. Its like one science text book that urges kids to boycott McDonanalds over this SAVE THE RAINFORESTS crap

These authors seek only to
work tirelessly against those who would
poison the minds of our children.

Such progressive, liberal action
ensures a clear victory against they that
will rot the very foundations of
our collective social fabric, our
liberty, individual rights and freedom.

*now, reread and skip lines 2, 5 and 7. If only the revisionist textbooks were this easy to decode.

I think most people who identify themselves as conservatives, are uncomfortable with the education system. Mostly because they're stupid, uneducated, or both. The second amendment does state very clearly that the right to bear arms is for an organized militia. Not for private protection. Good luck with that militia by the way. All the handguns in the world wouldn't do much agains the US military.

Pretty unsophisticated troll work there, Tom.

Man, I know he's a troll but I'd like to give Tom a piece of my mind. Problem is. I can't write to good. Due to my govermint provided edumacation. Not even compleet sentences. They are to hard - I feel your pain, Tom and MikeM!

Public education is our oldest socialist program, excepting public libraries. I'm not surprised the schooling has become ineffective while the pro-government propaganda has taken center stage as the true purpose of the enterprise. Given enough time, all of our government programs end up this way. Education has had more time than the others to deteriorate to this point.

Apparently these people have not read the Constitution. The 10th amendment is very clear. "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibitied by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people".

So as if there wasn't enough leftist bias in many classrooms already, they just want more...

It figures.

Tom,
Many states have in their constitutions that all able-bodied men of a certain age range are members of the organized state militia. It does not matter whether you are active in it or not, by being a citizen of that state, you are automatically a member of the militia.
BTW, no where in the Constitution does it state that you give up the inherent right of self-defense.
