FEARLESS

Have you noticed that some people have no fear? They have no fear of overarching government that may take away their freedoms or their property. No fear of totalitarian government at all. I think it's quite astonishing.

I remember when I taught and the Federal Government was intruding more and more into academic freedom- most of the teachers just went along- some even helped!! They had no fear of government control, overreach or propaganda. WOW. I guess maybe they'd never been to those countries that were "liberated for the people". Those countries have big statues of their "liberators" in the town square.I remember going to these Communist countries and being shocked that these people who lived under total dictatorial rule were being told they had been "liberated".Actually, there are really only two types of government- freedom or dictatorship. All these "do gooders" are really control mongers that will gladly give up freedoms because they think they are smarter, know better than the average Joe, and they will use government power to make things right. Too often even Republicans think they can use government to "make things right"- no matter how many times the same Federal programs fail- they keep thinking "a little more will do ya".Our schools are turning into propaganda centers for political agendas- garnering support for government controls just like they did in the old Soviet Union- and as every dictatorship does.

How blithely and easily the public will give away their freedoms.Instead of being taught how to be free the children in school today are being taught how to be dependent.Have breakfast, lunch and dinner free at school- depend on the school for everything- healthcare, daycare, mental healthcare, evening homework help, food for the weekend. Be weak and dependent- you can't make it through a morning without the water bottle at your side(which requires frequent visits to the bathroom of course) and snacks.Don't believe you can work independently and accomplish things on your own- rely on the collective- which of course tells you what to think too.

People who voted for Obama just put the blinders on and accept that the Federal Government will control their schools, their healthcare, their cities ,counties and states, the food they eat the car they drive and how they raise their children.Even how they sit in their car (seat belts), how much water comes out of their shower and what they will pay for energy. They just give up any idea of controlling their own lives and economies. Of course, the government hasn't started nationalizing property on a massive scale YET.They do force people to sell property they want though.I often wonder how bad it will have to get before some people realize what is happening. The Federal government even controls curbs and streets through their grants.

Have you noticed how in dictatorships the people who support the government become rich elitists? I was amazed to see the multi-million dollar mansions that the Chinese Communists are buying here in America. Yes, the "Peoples Republic" has the actual people working in sweatshops 14 hours a day for almost no money and living in little cubicles at night- while the "liberators" live in multi- million dollar mansions!!Is this like the Obama's living like millionaires with Michelle's multi-thousand dollar outfits and vacations in Martha's Vineyard and the Taj Mahal hotel in India ( we paid for 1,500 guests!!)?How did a community organizer get so rich so fast?

People are the same everywhere- they want power and money.Our founding fathers gave us an ingenious system to protect us from these greedy power mongers- to protect us from becoming "The People's Republic" with elitist dictatorial "liberators". Sometimes fear is a good thing- it means you're awake and facing realities. Let's hope some of us find the fear before it's too late for all of us.

TRUTH

Here's a truth for you. Every program that has sent our country to the brink of insolvency was promoted and propagandized for by the liberal left socialist communists.That's right. Not one of the programs, not some of the programs, ALL OF THEM! Whether it's Medicare or Medicaid or Social Security or Habitat for Humanity or Head Start or Food Stamps or Food Share or The Endowment to the Humanities or the Endowment to the Arts or the Education Department or any other Federal Government imposed socialist program- THE LEFT DID IT.Socialism always goes broke so here we are. A few more taxes on the "middle class" or on the "rich" is not going to fix this.

Here's another truth- the liberal left has managed to undermine fair elections that people can trust. Cayoga County in Ohio didn't have one vote for Romney in the last election. How could that be? There were counties in Florida and Pennsylvania that came up with the same results. The liberal left motor voter law registers people whether they're a citizen or not. People are registered on the street by untrained volunteers- who knows who's being registered and who is ultimately voting those ballots? Patty Murray from King County Washington, who is now head of the budget committee in the Senate, is another fraud who got her position by cheating- they counted the ballots over and over and kept adding absentee ballots until she came out on top- a lot like Al Franken in Minnesota who took Norm Coleman's seat.I'm not sure what you can do when the vote has been compromised. I guess the people who are compromising the vote will stay in power and continue to control the justice department so that nothing is investigated.

Here's another truth. Little children don't do "higher level thinking skills" and "critical thinking" as the new Common Core curriculum says it is going to teach. Why don't they do this, and why can't they be taught this? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT LITTLE ADULTS- THEY ARE CHILDREN AND HAVE A CHILD's INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY.I had a rather amusing example of this a few weekends ago while visiting my sister. My little niece ( who read the book Little Women to me in second grade with stunning fluency and expression), set the table for dinner.When we sat down to eat three of us had napkins. We asked her why only three of us had napkins and she said "Well, there were only three napkins in the napkin holder". Of course she could have gotten more out of the package in the cupboard-. I thought about all the critical thinking the little 9 and 10 year olds will supposedly be doing under Common Core and I had to laugh. But it's not funny- what the liberal left will really be doing is propagandizing your children,because as we all know, children mimic and model adult opinions.

The liberal left are very clever at propaganda. It's time for the right to fire back- to get the truth out- to not be cowed by all the lying.

M A R K E T I N G

I've been in California recently visiting relatives. I happened to be telling my cousin's husband about all the unsupportable and ridiculous claims that the Common Core folks say about the program and he said "Yes, Marketing for sales". He is right. The socialists are MARKETING to the American people.Republicans don't market- they just tell the truth and think common sense and truth will win the day. Common sense and truth have a hard road to follow when their competition is devious and masterful with MARKETING.


Who doesn't want children ready for the 21st century? Who doesn't want their child college and career ready? Who doesn't want their child to be creative and a "higher level thinker"? All of this sounds wonderful, like the $19.99 specials you're supposed to call in for on the television. The thing is, like those ads, the Socialists are just selling another social teaching program that will have none of the startling results they are claiming. If they have any trial at all of this program it was the Clinton's program in the 90's that had collaborative learning and was going to bring up graduation rates and teach "higher level thinking". If it worked why do we have a new program with exactly the same claims? I can tell you Goals 2000 DID NOT WORK!! Graduation rates are much worse- they were at 17% of kids dropping out and have gone to 25% of kids dropping out since Goals 2000.

The socialists have been trying to fix schools and society to their liking since the 60's and they are colossal failures from school drop out rates and achievement scores to poverty. As someone pointed out once, the Communists are much better at subterfuge than they are at governing. My cousin's daughter asked me the question we all ask "WHERE IS ALL THIS COMING FROM??"That's the subterfuge part- I told her about the clever idea of socialists to have the National Governors Association and State School Chiefs Councils dictate this- eliminating the need for our actual representatives in the legislatures. BUT WHO PUT THEM UP TO THIS?? Basically it is the Federal Department of Education Bureaucrats working with people like Bill Ayers and the U.N.

If you've seen the movie Agenda you know the communists decided on the slow take over from within approach. They took over the Democrat party and all the media communications from Hollywood and Newspapers to publishing houses. That's why when Katrina hit in Louisiana it was George Bushes fault but when Sandy hit in New York and New Jersey, which is a terrible disaster, it is not Obama's fail at all!! He's a hero!!Do you see how it works? They tell you how it is and enough of the people believe it to keep them in power.How long can they hide the truth? How long can their clever psychological manipulations keep you under control? I don't know- they already have to raise taxes- the people living out the Roman Circus scenario will start to feel THAT. Kruschev said that the soviets would spoon feed socialism to the Americans until one day they would wake up and be Communists without realizing what happened.

The last election was the most disastrous that has ever happened in this country. I don't know if we can find our way back, but I know for sure that America will fail financially- they can only patch the leaking ship with taxes for awhile- THEY ARE OUT OF MONEY.Maybe the clever socialist MARKETING will finally break down at this point and the people will still have enough power left to go back to freedom.

TWO VISIONS

As I have noted on this blog earlier- elections have consequences- and we have a big election facing us tomorrow.The simple truth is that there are two visions- one would enslave us to the government, one would free us and give us responsibility for our own lives. We have lived under the second alternative for most of the years of our republic, but President Obama has worked his parties agenda of change on our country- massive government, massive debt, massive regulations, take over of businesses and health care and schools and children and families.This is the vision that the bureaucratic state- the experts- are the ones that should manage you and your families-because you can't do it for yourself. You NEED daycare at school and food programs at school and health care at school and mental health care at school- you are an incompetent fool that can't solve your own problems or raise your own children. You need home visits and records kept on you and your children too. The "experts" must keep track of their charges.That's the view. And by the way- the leaders of the experts become the elite that hang out at Martha's Vineyard and take trips to India on the public dime (Think Obama) and are oh so proud of being the "rich"- you paid for that.

Common Core is a massive disaster waiting to happen and it will cost tens of billions of dollars nationwide. The "experts" want you to think they know the future and are preparing your children to be "college and career" ready. That's why they made the architect of this disastrous common plan,David Coleman, the president of the Scholastic Achievement Test Board (the one you take to get into college)- now he can determine who is qualified for college!! That's like failing with one teacher and getting a teacher who's easy the next year and becoming an A student! The architect of the plan will decide if he is successful!! The students will definitely not be better prepared but David can just determine who he wants to succeed!!These tests have open ended questions and projects- another words they are assessed subjectively. Common Core does not believe in fill in the dot tests that determine only if you know the facts.

If you vote for the "management" plan, don't think you'll get something for nothing. If you haven't heard the bad news yet, let me break it to you, our country is BROKE!!There are not enough taxes to pay our debts- even if you took ALL the money the rich have- we'd still be broke. We have 16 trillion dollars in debt and this is increasing by 3 billion dollars a day. The end is coming. Europe is a broken state and the American Socialists (Obama) are trying to mimic them- taking a successful nation and turning it to failure chasing the European Socialist fantasy.WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU TAKE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL NATION ON THIS EARTH AND DESTROY IT TRYING TO BE LIKE FAILED SOCIALIST STATES?? I for one do not want to live like the people in Cuba or China or Russia or Venezuela or Europe, so I'm voting for Romney.

Common Core is an attempt to educate our children to live in a world where we're "all in it together"- the old village idea. These children will not have loyalties to the American traditions of freedom and individualism. They will spend their school days doing collaborative projects and then spend their lives never getting out of the collaborative projects as they wait for someone else to do the work and tell them what to do or care for them.This is not a way forward for America and it most definitely is not the way to deliver good education. I hope God still protects the U.S.A because we are in real trouble here. Have you seen the idiotic smiles of those Obama supporters that stand behind him as he speaks? Do you wonder what in the world they are thinking? Are they thinking at all? I wonder if they've seen an unborn child's sonogram lately.We're having our first grandchild in March and at 10 weeks we counted the fingers.Two visions- one believes in killing the unborn and using government to redistribute wealth and manage your life. A vision that rejects our founding fathers and the constitution this wonderful country was founded on.A vision that has a spokesman that is a philandering lying pig that, as president, was impeached (Clinton), that makes aspersions on the most upright decent family man you will find in politics(Romney)- and of course has NOTHING to back those aspersions up. I hope you vote for our country and not their agendas.
