I haven't got to post much lately and I've got to get going again here or I'm going to bust! I've started several posts but I've been getting interrupted with WORK and I haven't gotten to finish any of them. There are several things I'm going to be writing about in the next few days that are near and dear to my heart this subject is just what's bothering me the most right now.
In the last day or two I've been hearing about BO's thoughts on extending the school year. First of all, you must understand that I don't have a "dog in this hunt" since I home school my two children who still live at home. Obama just loves to compare our infrastructure and lifestyle to that of communist countries and about how America has failed it's children. It's kind of tough to gauge us on a fair scale when comparing us to the ChiComm's and various other Asian countries.
Barry, I have some news for you! I betcha those schools you are so proud of don't teach sex ed like we do here in this country. Those schools don't teach the environmentalist "wacko" crap that our schools teach. Those schools teach math, science and other subjects that are actually core subjects we used to teach. I'm not saying we don't still teach those things, but the dang liberals have gotten in the way of learning with all its asinine rules and political correctness and "pecking away" at the idea of decency and the teaching that hard work is honorable. I would bet those countries you are comparing us to are not "PC" in any way and more is expected and demanded of it citizens.
Here in this country, no matter what happens, the liberals are quick to bemoan the treatment of criminals and punks and thugs. In societies in the east, criminals are actually punished for their crimes and those folks have fear and respect for their law. It would be interesting to see what would happen if some students in China acted out like our school kids do in this country. I bet there would not be one attorney getting in the way of a kid getting his rear swatted. (that's the way it used to be here) The countries BO is so proud of don't put up with a lot of crap from it citizens and certainly not from a bunch of kids. In this country teachers necessarily fear some of their students because the stupid liberal rulers take up for punks and thugs and see that they aren't punished. God help the teacher that actually punishes one of these "turds" or if the principal actually expelled them from school! I would venture to say that the family structure in those societies are more stable than ours. You liberals have gone way out of the way to do everything you can do to destroy the American family unit. Society has accepted homosexuality as a normal lifestyle, we've accepted single parenting as normal, we've allowed for no-fault divorce, millions of parents don't care enough about their kids to make them mind and to learn to work and be decent. In this day and age a parent walks a fine line when disciplining a child. You could be the next parent brought up on charges, by the nanny state government, for child abuse if you go too far and actually spank your child. Our government at all levels have done a great deal of harm to our country and our society.
I've said earlier this year that my children would be back in public school next year. Well, I changed my mind. The state doesn't do anything well and they are not going to get their hands on the children I have left at home! My children are my responsibility and I will raise them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. My children will get a solid education foundation without worshiping at the alter of environmentalism/communism! My children will not sit and listen to a lecture about how evil capitalism is! We will not be learning about why Johnny and Susie has two fathers, or how to put on a condom. I will not allow my child to be taught by someone who has the morals of an animal. At one time teachers had to guard their weekend activites and were in fear of their job if they lived an immoral lifestyle. It used to be that teachers were expected to be good examples to the children they were responsible for.
I don't have a beef with the teachers for the most part though. Teachers have to teach what they are told to teach by some feather head at the state level. We are falling behind because of our families falling apart. Children are not being raised with the work ethic, at least a lot of them aren't. Children today are learning from their parents, how to beat the system and how to get the taxpayers to foot the bill for them. Why should they work hard if they know the government will take care of them no matter what? There are a lot of folks in our country that are uneducated,ignorant and very proud of it, like it's something special to be an idiot. Government is quick to blame teachers for our failing academic system, when in truth the oppressive federal government is to blame. How can teachers teach when there are no moral values instilled in lots of these kids from their parents? How can teachers be effective when they spend a good part of their day trying to get the few "unruly" children to not interrupt their class. Our teachers can't spank anymore because a few parents would sue over that. The whole school system needs to be put back into the hands of the local school boards and the federal government needs to get out of the education business.
How do we change from this course? First of all we have to elect leaders that actually have the moral turpitude to stand on principles and not bow to the ever present 4th estate (the media). Barack Obama a joke and if it were not for the "so-called" main stream media he would still be a community organizer in Chicago! BO has never ever had a real job in his life, yet he is the most powerful man on the planet thanks to the media. He is a small man in a big job he doesn't have the intellect to perform. We have to get leaders that understand that there is a God and we must follow the Godly principles that our founders set forth in their writings and in our original constitution. Our country was founded on those principles and they stood us in good standing for a couple of hundred years until the more liberal amongst us took over.
Look around, you guys and gals that are in your 40's and older. Remember what we had when we were children? I swear I live in a different country than I did back when I was a much younger man. I know I'm making a general statement here that doesn't necessarily apply to everyone. We had a good country and a good school system until the progressives finally took control. I remember when most kids still had both parents at home. I remember when school teachers were respected by their students and kids that caused trouble and continually disrupted were escorted out of the school system and not allowed back in.
If we want to make our school system work again we need to look at what the school system was back when it was the best in the world and try to emulate that. The liberals have done much to wreck our country by the loosening of our morals and values and by making things normal that are abnormal. The liberals are the people that complain the most loudly about the sorry state of affairs of our education system yet they are the ones who have wrecked the schools and our country.
