This article barely touches on the real issue of a federally controlled curriculum, which is that it is brainwashing to implement the left agenda.

Lies about our history, distortions of historical truths, and most of all, openly teaching liberalism and socialism in the class room, especially high school – and insidiously teaching it buried in the curriculum taught from the first grade on. The lies and distortions our children are taught about the Europeans, and the constant bashing of America and Western Civilization are shocking.

Ask your children if they are ever taught that this is a great country that saved the world in two wars, saved Korea in another, rebuilt our enemies into democracies, helped any country that needed us and always honored our commitments? Not happening. Ask them if they are taught how amazing our Founders were. Not a chance.

The steady stream of denigrating America and Western Civilization has led to a generation of voters who do not understand who were are (were) and are ungrateful for what we are. Hence, voters who are ignorant as to the dangers of Barry Soetero as president.

My child’s high school history teacher openly preaches that Conservatism is bad, and liberalism (the failure of the 20th century) is the hope of the future. The teachers,most almost all of whom are leftists, openly violate state law to constantly talk about the greatness of Obama, especially to the students who are, or will soon be eligible to vote.

Even high school students know to agree with their teachers’ political viewpoint or risk a lower grade.

This is one more area where the Progressives have been at work for one hundred years.

Given the absolute assault on our students ideologically from the left, it is amazing there are any Conservatives at all. Think how many there might be had our children not been taught liberalism since kindergarten.

This sort of brainwashing used to be confined to college professors, it is now endemic in high schools. As for the colleges, this has been going on there since the early 1900s, but now any pretense of a comprehensive education is gone. Our colleges are completely controlled by the left.
