If you can’t use the NEA anymore just switch to the Dept of Education to disseminate the propaganda.
Superintendents and Principals should start getting fired on the spot.
What a suprise.
Just have to give the brain dead followers marching orders, and this is what you get.
And Flyover is right. Can them.
AND BTW, I guess Miss Liberal Teacher didnt have the time to do any fact checking eh?
“Hi, we’re the NEA. We’re not as corrupt as ACORN, but there’s more of us.“
Actually, there are two NEA’s, and they both suck royally.
NEA.org is the National Education Association, which is responsible for the politically correct orientation of our children.
NEA.gov is the National Endowment for the Arts, which takes our tax money and gives it to anarchists, homosexuals, and libertines so that they can buy food and dope while they mock our culture with their “art”.
school boards and teachers as well tenure or not….
Uh-oh. MM’s blog is getting like Drudge, a link can jam the circuits.
“American citizens..can not get healthcare coverage?”
Huh? That is an extremely misleading question. The correct answer is 0 but I bet thats not what the answer key says.
The coverage may not be what they want but the question didn’t say full coverage for everything under the sun even if you have a preexisting condition.
This is a joke. If our educators wrote this test, no wonder our education system in is disarray. What a bunch of buffons.
TBone,
You beat me to the point.
I HAVE NEVER EVER BEEN MORE ANGRY.
OBAMA must NOT be allowed to indoctrinate our kids. Socialism, fascism & communism is NOT an AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE!!!!!!
NO WE WON’T allow DICTATORS to RULE in the USA
Can I Play?
1) 8-10 million + 1. After removing the illegals, those who choose not to purchase insurance and the youts. The + 1 is my dad who’s been out of work since March.
2) With the economy hemorrhaging jobs every month, with no clear sign of recovery, I would guess that the 14,000 goobermint estimate is low.
3) Goal 1: Control. Goal 2: Complete control. Goal 3: Absolute control
4) Selling new policies; making a profit
5) He ask the senators to remove that language from the bill.
6) Absofrick’nlutely
Time to start giving hidden video cameras to our children in school.
Michelle, would you post the rap lyrics if you can find out what they are? Thanks!
If our founding fathers could have seen the America today… would they have still allowed slavery in the United States?
Obama and his ilk have been indoctrinating kids for DECADES!
Where have you been?
Get your kids out of public schools, NOW! Or stand by and watch as they are turned into little socialists.
It is still your choice for a little while.
Me, too, Tboner. Health care is available to all in America, legal resident or not.
My wife is 30, my daughter is 9. We opt out of this confabulation called abummercare.
Answers:
1. Define “Americans” and “can not get”.
2. Since we’re not yet required to report to the government daily whether we have or just lost health insurance, how can anyone know the answer to this question?
3. (a) to take it over, (b) to take it over, and (c) to take it over.
4. (a) in the short term, make a profit; (b) in the long term, exist.
5. By lying.
6. To quote my favorite former governor: “You betcha!”
Every two bit dictator uses this same curriculum. All praise be to our leader, savior of the world. Makes me want to hurl. Tax dollars should not be wasted on this cr@p.
What are the 3 basic goals? It depends on who President Neophyte is speechifying to on a given day.
What things are insurance companies prohibited from doing? Providing health insurance and making money.
How did the president respond? How the h*ll would I know, I was busy trying to get mommy and daddy to get me some new Pokeman cards.
A better lesson would be to find all the lies the president tried to pass and cite references. It would be a better lesson in how government works.
Looking at the quiz above, I’d actually say it was filled out by a senator or congressman with a (D) after their name.
Note how it was answered along party lines on the first two questions and then the rest were ignored.
Maybe it was actually a town hall agenda!
It isn’t just BO.
It is the people helping him.
Be forever on your guard.
We all knew this was going to happen. Well, most of us knew.
We learned with the Clintons that whatever a Democrat says, the opposite is always the truth or the reality. It serves us all well to remember that. Obama, is nothing, but true to form.
Transparency.
Raising taxes.
Not hearing twenty years of anti-semitism in his church
Fighting corruption.
Not knowing that ACORN was getting so much federal money.
More important things happening than worrying about ACORN.
Didn’t know about Van Jones.
Etc., etc.
Do YOU know yet who this clown is? I do, and have known. Doesn’t anyone else feel like we’re waiting for the other shoe to fall?
Is this for real?? It sure looks real.
If this is real, we have got BIG TROUBLE!
wow, they actually asked if the government wanted to kill off seniors.
AND they asked whether or not it would fund abortion.
The amazing thing to me is that the Bible and Christianity are ‘objectionable’ subjects in public school. But euthanasia, abortion, and gay issues aren’t. America has its priorities out of whack.
What class was this for? What age group? In a high school civics class, it could start an interesting discussion. If junior high or lower, the questionaire should get an “I” for Indoctrination.
Eventually the goals will be to outlaw home schooling (with the consequences being CPS takes your kids away), and to regulate/tax private schools out of existence. They don’t want a society where free-thinking individualists are growing up alongside the programmed zombies.
My wife and I are expecting a child, and one of my liberal co-workers recommended a daycare center. She said it was just WONDERFUL. I asked her about it and she told me what was great was that it had none of that “Jesus” stuff, and that it was run by some former hippies and was all done in a big backyard under trees. I asked her with a straight face if everyone was naked. She looked surprised and said, “No!”. I replied seriously, “Oh, I would think that would be cool.” She smiled and said, “That would be, huh?”
One must have fun when talking to stupid liberals…
Lies, damned lies, and Obama speeches.
I had a Rhetoric professor in college who was an admitted leftist. However, if an issue like Healthcare was the topic, he would take the position of a conservative and destroy a liberal student attempting to make a lame presentation.
He would turn leftist and do the same thing to a conservative. As a result I had the greatest respect for him. His goal was to teach us to think critically and make sound judgements.
That is what a real teacher does. The cheerleaders for either side need to check their opinions and their social objectives at the classroom door.
Spread the word – Cashill has PWNED Obama & Ayers – once and for all:
Andersen Book Blows Ayers’ Cover on ‘Dreams’
Jack Cashill
September 23, 2009
americanthinker.com
In his new book, “Barack and Michelle: Portrait of an American Marriage,” Best-selling celebrity journalist, Christopher Andersen, has blown a huge hole in the Obama genius myth without intending to do so.
Relying on inside sources, quite possibly Michelle Obama herself, Andersen describes how Dreams came to be published — just as I had envisioned it in my articles on the authorship of Dreams. With the deadline pressing, Michelle recommended that Barack seek advice from “his friend and Hyde Park neighbor Bill Ayers.”
To flesh out his family history, Obama had taped interviews with various family members. Andersen writes, “These oral histories, along with a partial manuscript and a truckload of notes, were given to Ayers.” Andersen quotes a Hyde Park neighbor, “Everyone knew they were friends and that they worked on various projects together. It was no secret. Why would it be? People liked them both.”
Andersen continues, “In the end, Ayers’s contribution to Barack’s Dreams From My Father would be significant–so much so that the book’s language, oddly specific references, literary devices, and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers’s own writing.”
More to come!
FIFY
This just re-enforces my conviction that, resigning as a teacher, and homeschooling my children is the BEST decision I EVER made!
Right… over my dead body, obama! And even if that were the case, my boys are 11 and 8 and would know better than to conform to this BS.
Homeschooling starting next year!
ErinF ~ Well said!
Ditto on the boys. Mine are 8 and 11 too.
My daughters have been instructed to refuse any projects/assignments such as this and to inform me immediately should something of this nature ever be assigned in class.
It would not be the first time I would call the school’s Superintendant.
ErinF ~ Little advice.
Check w/ Home School Legal Defense Association. They represent homeschooling families across the nation.
I wouldn’t home school w/out them!
hslda.org
RWM, already have, thanks! What state are you in, if you don’t mind my asking?
Incidentally, both my kids’ schools were not pushing the obama speech and curriculum, but my oldest son’s school is now pushing Gallup polls on the children! I told the school where to stick the poll.
ErinF ~ Lone Star
You? (If you don’t mind.)
Good for you! Why do they “need” an 8 year old’s opinion???
Oh, by all means, please do home school your children. That way, companies like mine won’t hire them, and I won’t be stuck working with your intellectually impaired offspring…
Answer: yes, it was called a stimulus plan. aka, BOHICA
“er, um, uh, you would have to ask my Grandmother anddddddddd Teddy Kennedy to get the answer to that one.”
What evidence do you have to suggest that homeschooled kids are dumber than publically educated kids? Your bias? Or an actual study?
BTW, as a former public school teacher, I’ve seen how much public schools DON’T educate our kids. I’ve seen what happens when dumbed down public school kids enter college and are ill-prepared to undertake college courses. I’ve experienced it as a college student and have even witnessed professors complaining, right in front of me, about how many high school graduates can’t even write, let alone form complete, well-written sentences.
I’ve seen, personally, how public schools have let kids down. How they put them through to the next grade even though they’re functionally illiterate. Try teaching 8th graders Social Studies when they’re at a 5th grade reading comprehension level. Yeah, gosh, that homeschooling looks really bad in comparison.
I’ve already seen some studies that suggest that homeschoolers do better on the state standardized testing and SAT/ACT exams than their public school peers. By all means, provide us with some evidence that suggests that homeschooled kids are “intellectually impaired.”
As a prospective parent and homeschooler (I’m a certified teacher, pal), I’m insulted that you, yet again, put forth a statement YOU cannot back up.
Try again.
1) Screw it up royaly
2) Screw it up permanently
3) Screw it up like a cash for clunkers Charlie Foxtrot.
Bonus points if you answered without a teleprompter.
Two part question – During his campaign, how many days did Obama say legislation should be available on-line for review by the public before it is voted upon? How much is Obama talking about needing that now?
Question – Who answered, “That’s above my pay scale.”, and what was the question?
Independent schools, private, Church, charter… anything but BHO Communist “public” schools.
This is complete propaganda and has no place in “public” schools.
Just try to mention Roger Tamraz.
Maine.
I think the Gallup survey on students is yet another indoctrination tactic.
What school district was this/where?
For all too long all too many parents have allowed this to go on-either unaware or unconcerned. This Obaminization/politicization of the schools did not materialize out of thin air. Until those same parents, grandparents and families are ready to take on the schools, school boards, State and Federal School authorities our children will continue to be indoctrinated in every evil, vile plan some powerful interest group has.
We can say “they are too big, too powerful-nothing can be done”. We can go out in the back yard and dig our own graves too but I think it is a lousy idea.
Fight back NOW. Know what the SOBs are up to. We keep fire and knives away from our children–political snakes are just as dangerous.
Arizona beat me to it: where did this happen? When people show something like this, without pointing to “where,” I’m skeptical.
If it’s real, let’s stomp it. If it’s not – let’s not look like fools.
That’s okay, my kids don’t want to clean out porta-johns anyway.
Shouldn’t public schools concern themselves with more important matters, such as stopping sexual hazing:
http://millburn.patch.com/articles/school-board-wants-plan-to-stop-mhs-hazing
or hey!, here’s a wild concept – teach reading, writing, and arithmetic like we pay them to do! If they can’t manage something as simple as that, let me keep my money and teach them myself. What children are exposed to in most schools these days is in direct contradiction to everything that is taught in my home. I’m just glad this liberal agenda isn’t the standard in my children’s current school system.
Location, location, location as we say in Real Estate.
This was filmed around June 19, 2009 at the B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, NJ.
To fight effectively we need the Who, Where and When. Or accept
I have no thought except to serve Stalin. OneMonkeysUncle might approve that.
Great post.
Emjem,
This monkey probably doesn’t know his rear end from a bananna, much less the statistics on homeschooling success vs. public school success. As a business owner, I would hire someone who’s been homeschooled on the spot over a public school-indoctrinated individual. If he wants to open up this can of worms, let’s debate the quality of education received in our public schools by analyzing the lessons being offered:
Sex Education – check
Drug Experimentation – check
Gang/Prison Preparation – check
Violence and Suicide Awareness – check
Hazing Disciplines – check
Public Healthcare Speech Studies – check
Feel free to add any that I’ve missed here.
Yeah, these are certainly the skills I look for in anybody I hire.
Excellent! Even MORE incentive to homeschool. Now I’m really motivated.
One question: why do monkeys and idiots always vote democrat?
That should answer it for ya – birds of a feather, or monkey see, monkey do, whichever you prefer.
There is no such data. Quite the contrary, home schooled children consistently outperform their public school equivalents, much as do private school children.
I concur. I see the results of public schooling at the college level, and I am not impressed. Maybe “onemonkeysuncle” should ask why colleges have to have remedial subcolleges to get marginally qualified students up to the level of other students? Or maybe he could comment on the death of critical thinking in the public schools, no doubt traded for diversity training and educational equivalency.
He/she has nothing.
For the same reason they throw their feces, no doubt.
Let’s be clear: the video of kids rapping appears to be from that school in Burlington NJ. This quiz hasn’t been linked to that.
If this quiz is real, it had to come from somewhere. Where?
Indoctrination is far from new!
1998 ~ The jr. high, were I was teaching, had a multicultural assemble on African culture and MLK Jr. Our students were asked to stand and repeat a PLEDGE to the African ideals of family and society. There was NO preparation for this assembly. We were caught off guard and MANY students stood and repeated the words, mindlessly. I allowed my students to opt. out.
I was 8 months pregnant and it solidified (with MANY other incidents) my decision to resign and home school my own children.
OneMonkeyUncle ~
BTW principals change failing grades to passing (without teacher approval) to make their numbers look better and receive more Fed. and State money.
I agree, if it’s real, find out where it came from. Otherwise, it will only discredit this movement.
All under the guise of “No Child Left Behind”, no doubt.
A little help please. Was this “quiz” at the New Trier High School that was linked on another MM post? Smart Girl doesnt say where it is but the other link http://www.bizzyblog.com/2009/09/23/il-school-district-engages-in-obama-speech-indoctrination/
talks about New Trier but having to do with O’s education speech not health care….
Wow, you morons must have been homeschooled yourselves, because apparently you can not read.
I never said anything about studies on the differences between homeschooled and normally schooled kids grades. I said, specifically, my company doesn’t hire them – because our experience has been that they’re socially maladjusted and in general they tend to have a lesser ability to negotiate, compromise and collaborate, all skills a fast-paced business requires. I’m not at all disappointed that robs me of the dubious opportunity of having to hear at work fact-free opinions like those I see vomited across the MM comment threads all day long…
You must have gone to public school, Monkey. Your grammar is horrible.
