I can talk to teachers and know they're clueless worse yet I can see their pathetic and disasterous results in what passes for someone with an education today.I want to know why you people constantly bitch about liberals running schools, yet they are elected by state and local officials. The federal government doesn't impact your children unless they are poor or special needs. Isn't that your own damned fault?

Here's what you fail to understand:
Get it now????
- The radicals of the sixties did not remain within the universities…They realized that the apocalypse never materialized. “…they were dropping off into environmentalism and consumerism and fatalism…I watched many of my old comrades apply to graduate school in universities they had failed to burn down, so they could get advanced degrees and spread the ideas that had been discredited in the streets under an academic cover.” Collier and Horowitz, “Destructive Generation: Second Thoughts About The Sixties,” p. 294-295.
- “The radicals were not likely to go into business or the conventional practice of the professions. They were part of the chattering class, talkers interested in policy, politics, culture. They went into politics, print and electronic journalism, church bureaucracies, foundation staffs, Hollywood careers, public interest organizations, anywhere attitudes and opinions could be influenced. And they are exerting influence.” Robert H. Bork, “Slouching Toward Gomorrah,” p. 51
- O'Sullivan's First Law: All organizations that are not actually right-wing will over time become left-wing. I cite as supporting evidence the ACLU, the Ford Foundation, and the Episcopal Church. The reason is, of course, that people who staff such bodies tend to be the sort who don't like private profit, business, making money, the current organization of society, and, by extension, the Western world. At which point Michels's Iron Law of Oligarchy takes over — and the rest follows. http://old.nationalreview.com/flashback/flashback-jos062603.asp

When was the last time you were employed as a teacher? How would you know if you never worked in one?
I bet we've all had great teachers, who set our course in life......but more and more, with militant secularism being the major theme in government schooling, I have to hope that more folks choose home schooling.
And more money isn't the solution to fixing the schools.
