little things

     I sometimes have to set back and reflect on where we are heading as a society.  And if we judge this by what our kids are being taught, we are in trouble. Graduation rates are plummiting in this country. Student loans are coming due, schools cost more and going up. And all a long students are dumber than ever. Don't take my word for it, just sit down sometime with your kids or grandkids and just ask so basic questions about the world they live in. Ask them about well known history or the structure of the government or just about the town or city they grew up in. I believe you will be surprised how little they know. But if you ask them to sing you a rap song they will know it word for word. So what's wrong with this picture?

     Teacher tenure, unions, popular retelling of the history of this country by free thinking teachers. A friend of mine put me onto this word free thinkers. What it comes down to is so called free thinkers seem to me like if you believe in god you are just uninformed. And if you do not see things their way you somehow do not deserve to be in the same room with them. Now I take no sides in this, religious or otherwise. But I cannot just set back a watch one group of people persecuted because they believe in traditional family values. While a very small percentage think they are right and everyone else is somehow deranged. If you look closely you will see how the untraditional values have slowly taken apart this country, one Christmas tree, one holiday, and one belief at a time. Now if this is what you want then, well they have succeeded. This country is being run by arrogant, pretension, affluent men hell bent on power and control. And in the mean time taking down the very country we live in under the guise of racism, gender nullification, and multiculturalism.

     If we do not stand up now it will be too late. Everything we have fought and died and bled for will be gone.
