Besides the well documented problems of Common Core such as the Unconstitutional federal takeover of our children’s education, Data mining, poor math and literature standards, age inappropriate materials and removing the parent from the decision-making of their child(s) education; we can now add to it, less time allocated to teach our children. All in the name of money! Continue reading “MORE ILLS OF COMMON CORE AND THE SCHOOL BOARD CAVES.. AGAIN!”
OPPRESSORS CAN’T SURVIVE FREE EXPRESSION
Are you like me and feel overwhelmed, that no matter what you do…no one… or at the very least , very few are listening? There seems to be a new crisis daily or a new “cause” to champion among the left and bring to the forefront; many times, causes that I laugh at when first mentioned.
I stumbled across a piece on the website http://thefederalist.com that explained in wonderful and simple detail exactly what is happening and what can be done to “turn our ship of state” back in the direction that our founding fathers had designed. The good news is 2 fold; that the TOOLS OF THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA, HOLLYWOOD,WANNABE DICTATORS AND ACADEMIA are not new and, they (the oppressors) cannot survive where free expression and association is practiced.

DAVID COLEMAN’S AP HISTORY- A HISTORY OF TYRANNY
The revisionist history of the left has once again made it under the radar and into our Brevard schools. The ones that are tasked with overseeing our county educational system have failed us again. Released in 2012 it will be the history course that our best and brightest will see; for many of them it will be the last history course they will take.
David Coleman, a man who is unelected, is not a standards expert nor is a teacher has stealthfully brought a new version of AP History (APUSH) into Brevard Schools. This is the same David Coleman, along with Bill Gates and Jeb Bush, that spearheaded the Unconstitutional Common Core down our throats and into our nation’s and Florida’s school system. Last night, I was allowed my 3 minutes to speak before the school board and except for Amy Knesseey, all I saw were blank stares. Not very encouraging. There were no questions about this appalling distortion of America’s history now in Brevard schools. In a nutshell, the new APUSH course presents ; “the history of the United States is a history of exportation, imposed suffering, forced labor,exportation, class oppression,racism, sexism, and the rule of the privileged few over everyone else.”
At the end of this piece I have provided a source document for any and all information concerning APUSH and the left’s attack on the accurate American history. Peter Woods, President of the National Association of Scholars, has laid out exactly what the new APUSH is and isn’t. Continue reading “DAVID COLEMAN’S AP HISTORY- A HISTORY OF TYRANNY”
THE REAL THANKSGIVING
Like many of you, Thanksgiving Day is absolutely one of my favorite holidays. A time to be with relatives and friends while enjoying those wonderful smells that fill the household. A time to eat a lot of great food, watch football and reflect on things, which inevitability brings me to the realization how thankful I am to be an American. A lot has transpired since October 3, 1789, when President Washington signed a declaration entitled “General Thanksgiving,” the decree appointed the day “to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God.” Then in 1863, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed, that on the 4th Thursday of November; “Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens”.
With that in mind, I am offering you a little different aspect on Thanksgiving to consider and some great news as well! Continue reading “THE REAL THANKSGIVING”
