		<description>Here&#039;s what I put in an email to the teacher. Doubt she&#039;ll answer but it&#039;s the truth.

&lt;blockquote&gt;So, your students should have empathy for the illegal immigrants?  What about the empathy for all of the hospitals that are closing because the illegal immigrants are using the emergency rooms as their clinic?  What about the people put out of work by this?  Are they entitled to your empathy?  If not, why not?  They are hard working U.S. citizens that pay the taxes that keep YOU in your job!  Have you forgotten that?

How about sending your students on a field trip to a hospital where the emergency room is crowded with illegal immigrants?  Have them try to get seen by a doctor.  Then have them do this role playing project: they have to “move” into that neighborhood, have kids and then have one get sick or injured and take them to that emergency room.  Oops!  Sorry, that hospital just closed because they went bankrupt.  No money coming in because all the people they treat are illegal immigrants that don’t pay.  However, not to worry; YOU still have YOUR comfortable government job.

Despite what anyone may think, health care is not a right.  You actually have to pay for it.  Hospitals MUST be run like a business because if they aren’t, they will close.  Then to whom do we turn?  The government?  If the government ran the health care system, no one would have adequate care.  Maybe that’s the entire point of your agenda; overload the hospitals with illegal immigrants and have them close so socialized medicine looks good.  Socialized health care is just that, socialism.  Why don’t you tell your students this quote from Winston Churchill – The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of misery.

How many hard working U.S. citizens have to be put out of work so your dream of socialist misery can become a reality?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

How about this for a role playing game for her students? They have to move to Guatemala and try to illegally immigrate to Mexico. She can have all of the girls go interview rape victims so they can understand what happens to the women that illegally immigate to Mexico. The boys can interview people freed from slavery so they can understand what happens to men that illegally immigrate to Mexico.

My son was indoctrinated into this nonsense, too. In his art class (yes ART), he went to a &quot;museum&quot; that showed him the respirators the farm workers use so they don&#039;t have to breathe the fumes from the pesticides. The &quot;docent&quot; used the term &quot;undocumented workers.&quot;

Your tax dollars hard at work. Against you!</description>

		<description>I wonder what would have happened if a student snuck into the school office, copied her personal information from their files, then returned to class featuring his forged documents complete with her social security number.</description>

		<description>Also according to her blog, her Spanish students watched and studied the film Volver.  Oh, that&#039;s rated R you say?  And a teacher showed it to her class?  I&#039;m shocked -- shocked I tell you!!  Thank God for our small Catholic school.</description>

		<description>How is this any different than federally (Read: Taxpayer) funded teaching of Islam in our schools? 

How is any of this relevant to an education which will help students become competitive in an ever-expanding global market? 

But at least the teacher can feel good right?</description>

		<description>Too many times, teachers violate the trust placed upon them by their profession.  They cross the line from education into indoctrination.  This appears to be the case, here.  She isn&#039;t teaching &quot;Spanish&quot;; she&#039;s teaching criminal activity.  Since this is an advanced Spanish class, there would be a mix of Spanish language and culture in the curriculum.  This is fine, as the Spanish culture is rich and long.  It&#039;s a shame; however, that she has to warp what should be a great cultural opportunity into a socio-political statement using using these young men and women as her pawns.  This surely is a waste for the parents/taxpayers, a waste of a teacher, and, most importantly, a wasteful disservice for the students.</description>

		<description>The process was frustrating. That&#039;s such a sad story. Another perfect example of liberals working hard to undermine America... Is there any school in the latino world that&#039;s teaching kids to make their own country better so they don&#039;t have to invade another? Now that would be foregign aid that I could live with.</description>

		<description>Just shows the indoctrination of our kids into the liberal philosophy. 2 of the biggest lessons, kids learn (required for graduation) is: &quot;I am not responsible&quot;, and &quot;I am entitled.&quot;  After that is open the borders, hate Bush/conservatives, punish mankind for global warming, America is evil, give enemies a &quot;hug&quot; and they will be nice to us. No wonder we have to look abroad for scientists/engineers.</description>
