Washington, D.C. - In a thoughtless and offensive exercise of political hyperbole during a workshop at the United Nations, a representative of the deceptively-named Human Rights Campaign recently likened the imagined “plight” of homosexuals in America to the very real humanitarian tragedy in Darfur.  Homosexual activist groups have organized a “Day of Silence” to promote this victim mentality among children in hundreds of schools across America.  As part of the “Not Our Kids” coalition, Concerned Women for America (CWA) asks parents of participating schools to teach their children (where age-appropriate) the truth about natural human sexuality, marriage and family at home on April 18 rather than subject them to a disruptive day of wholesale homosexual indoctrination.

The level of mush-minds and bird-brain flu victims in the population continues to grow, Public Schools and Colleges/Universities daily eject more and more totally brainwashed graduates and skaters.

Parents of college students who think the primary danger to their sons and daughters is liberal brainwashing should take a hard look at a new study finding that 49 percent (3.8 million) of full-time college students binge drink and/or abuse prescription and illegal drugs. The typical college campus is beginning to look like Sodom and Gomorrah.

Kids can’t play with Lego cause they are learning about Capitalism instead of Communism and Socialism!

This is weird, but interesting!

For a truly higher education, policymakers should tie tuition subsidies to college completion. - Most students have heard it a million times: “Earning a college degree is necessary for success in life.”

Washington, D.C. — In a shocking and brazen act of governmental abuse of parental rights, Deerfield High School (DHS) in Deerfield, Illinois, has required fourteen-year-old freshmen to attend a “Straight Gay Alliance Network” (GSA) panel discussion led by “gay” and “lesbian” upperclassmen during a “freshman advisory” class which secretively featured inappropriate discussions of a sexual nature in promotion of high-risk homosexual behaviors.

Washington Post columnist David Ignatius thinks that American colleges are just swell.  Former Harvard president Derek Bok disagrees. 

A Challenge To Teachers, Teacher Unions, and Mayors Across the Country - Public-school employees and teacher unions are better than they think they are. They don’t have to strangle parent’s free choice in how they educate their children. Public-school teachers have within them the ability to be great educators. I would like to suggest a way for them to live up to their highest potential.

As February came to an end, a page one story in my local daily was headlined, “Retired teachers told: Medical bills on state.” In what was described as “a side deal with the state teacher’s union” New Jersey’s Governor Jon Corzine had agreed that taxpayers would pick up their share of the bill cited at $53.6 billion!

Spending and grade points averages are up, so why are test scores down? - The U.S. Department of Education released 12th grade NAEP scores last week and the results are discouraging.

Should Conservadom, in the spirit of positive reinforcement, ever decide to create awards for its most valuable commentators, it is quite likely that David Horowitz will be summoned to the podium each and every year until the time of his death. Few other figures have so resolutely, and creatively, battled the left over the course of the past two decades. His ingenuity, zeal and sense of humor are apparent in the titles of his works, such as How to Beat the Democrats and Other Subversive Ideas, The Art of Political War and Other Radical Pursuits, and Hating Whitey and Other Progressive Causes. His careful and inflammatory choice of wording is again discernible in his latest release, Indoctrination U: The Left’s War Against Academic Freedom. The book is essentially a postscript to last year’s The Professors: The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America as it provides an antidote to the toxins disseminated by the 101 pseudo-scholars detailed within.

One of the clearest measures of a society can be found in its public school system. For example, it is no accident that in totalitarian states, such as North Korea, what may be taught comes directly from the government. Children are indoctrinated early to believe their “Dear Leader” never is wrong even though many do not have enough food to eat. And in war-torn countries or those which are deeply divided by religious differences there are few, if any, functioning public schools.

Apple CEO says unionization of public schools “off- the-charts crazy” - Apple CEO Steve Jobs recently provided a bracingly honest appraisal of the education system at a conference in Austin. 

PRINCIPAL: Good morning, Alice. We use first names at this school. Quite informal. Please have a seat. Glad you decided to start teaching again.
