Category: Common Core

The federal government is taking control of local academic standards through the Department of Education, (DOE) in Washington, DC. The objective; a nationalized education system, which caters to special interest influence in the classrooms, allowing insidious data collection, while removing local control. It will provide little options for reform, and severely limit parental involvement. We parents know what our children need better than the bureaucrat in DC. The expansion of the federal government into our lives threatens the long-established right of parents to direct their children’s education and confuses a proper understanding of federalism. Moreover, national standards and tests would be a one-size-fits-all approach that tends toward mediocrity and standardization, undercutting the pockets of excellence and the principle of federalism on which this nation is founded.

PICK’N PEOPLE..a.k.a., Sorting Through The 2014 Primaries

Today, I can say that some issues are very important to me. Common Core is at the top of that list, for the future of our country depends on education, which for so long has been in the wrong hands as it was stealthily changed before our eyes.

In Mien Kampf, Hitler wrote, “if you have the children, you have the future”. So I use this issue, and others to a lesser degree, to measure candidates, especially those that are not forthright.

JUDGES

When it comes to judges, like many, I vote out of total ignorance and just guess when voting. So much information is hidden..or so it seems. What I have done to find qualifications for this group, to the best of my ability is ;a) find true party affiliation, b) determine whom or what party they support.It’s the old adage of, “If you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas”.

MR. CRISAFULLI: ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

Dear Mr. Crisafulli,

 

I understand that you are looking for re-election campaign help. You have purported being a Conservative, and in the past, even though you are not my Representative, but on your word, I spoke in your favor at different citizen’s meetings throughout Brevard county. My wife and I are parents of a 15-year-old high school student.I have researched Common Core since first learning of it and the Trojan Horse know as RACE TO THE TOP in 2008. While trying to find your number to arrange a meeting with you, I accidentally called your business office and spoke with your mom. Of course she was very proud of you and remarked that, “you would always do the right thing“. Continue reading “MR. CRISAFULLI: ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS”

THAD ALTMAN-just like a liberal.

I am sitting here with a great piece of propaganda that would make any “regime” proud; rightly so, as I am sure that the rest of our fine state delegation from Brevard are. It concerns our good buddy; the man who is always looking out for the little guy, none other than Thad “The Impaler” Altman; aka Senator Altman, giving us a “tax break”. Man, what a big heart he has. I must say that this mailing is also one of the best pieces of comedy I have read in a long time! Continue reading “THAD ALTMAN-just like a liberal.”

Common Core From A Fighting Dad

As a disabled Viet Nam era Marine and the father of a 15 year old son, I have been fighting Common Core since 2008, when hearing about Federal bride to states known as Race To The Top. RTTT was foisted upon my state. I smelled a rat and was right. Simply stated,Common Core removes parents from directing their child’s education, allows an unconstitutional intrusion by the Fed to indoctrinate and to psychologically manipulate our children.
Here in Florida, Gov. Scott, along with Reps. Workman & Tobia, for the love of money and influence , has sold us out. He and his ilk, by tweeking around the edges of the CC standards, leaving 98% unchanged, then changing the name of the Common Core standards to the Florida Sunshine State Standards. Please, we parents and teachers of Florida are not that dumb; “putting lipstick on a pig is still a pig”.
The standards are still the same untested Common Core Standards. There are millions of us out there across the country, that see this for what it is from an administration out of control and will continue to fight.
Semper Fi,
Hamilton

THE HIDDEN AGENDA OF THE LEFT

Hi Matt,

In your January 24th Florida Today article, How Florida gave schools Common Core, you paint myself, other parents and citizens as making the Common Core issue, “.. a highly dramatized story — much of it fiction.” In your article you present information that is questionable. Would you please give me the list of the Brevard County teachers, aka “educators” that wrote the Common Core Standards?

Your Progressive/Liberal self showed itself when you stated that  we concerned and informed constitutionalists, independents and conservatives feel, “Common Core” harkens to black helicopters and a New World Order ” and that “There’s a big fear on the right about this massive government overreach,”.
