Has anyone else notice the uptick in propaganda from Obama's administration touting the mind-numbing pablum known as Common Core? Seems with the increase in resistance to indoctrination of our children, the government has begun ordering its mouthpiece (aka the Mainstream Media) to find anything good about Communist Core and shout it from the rooftops. Sure worked for Obamacare, didn't it?

Have you seen any of the actual content? It gets nothing right. It is as if there is a deliberate effort to produce a steady supply of low information voters.

And another sad part is that the kids aren't expected to get the right answer. A "reasonable" guess is good enough. I know if I needed brain surgery, I sure wouldn't want a Common Core educated brain surgeon making reasonable guesses. This is just Outcome Based Education in a different form.

Woodrow Wilson said while Prez that people should only be educated enough to be "good voters", his Party has been working on that for close to a Century now.

Eagle Forum has been focusing on CC. Love Phyllis or hate her, she digs to the bottom of the manure very quickly.

I think Communist Core is designed to exclude parental involvement. The government wants sole control over educational content relayed to our kids. I've heard so many parents (including my daughter) say they can't help their kids with homework because of the way it's being taught. Plus, they don't bring home any textbooks to reference; all they have is what the teacher tells them in class.

Neal Boortz was my source on this, was talking about it on his Radio Show some time back.

Neal Boortz was my source on this, was talking about it on his Radio Show some time back. That explains it. Boortz always said to not believe anything he says until you research it yourself. I still can't find that statement anywhere, not that it isn't true. But it does sum up what the Democrats have been doing to our kids for the last hundred years.

I imagine such a statement would be well butied to keep the people from hearing about it.

Saw a thing that supposed to come from CC. The 2nd admendment grants the Right to own some guns, if they are registered and the owner doesn't have a prison record...

As long as the government keeps the parents away from their kids' schoolwork, they can slip in stuff like this and get away with it.

I imagine we wouldn't be too happy if we went & looked @ the current text books either.
