Crushing of Dissent


No pull quote for this one either. Go read it all.

Matt's Chat

This kind of thing is happening WAY too often for it to be a coincidence. One begins to wonder if perhaps the NEA might have something to do with this crap. Nah, that would be one of those crazy black helicopter theories and we all know that only those EEEEEEEvil Republicans are involved in those.

Right?

Mark's Remarks


Look at the professors the educators had. Look at what is encouraged at NEA conferences and who they support. It is practically an axiom that teachers are liberal, but thankfully more and more teachers are coming out and being themselves, because they too are tired of living the liberal lie. Especially in light of this crushing of discourse by the principal, more teachers are coming out. The whole "liberals are open minded" nonsense does not hold up under scrutiny. Look at this story, and look at others we have profiled. Sit in college classrooms and watch how servicemen (or ROTC) are villified by professors, even mocked, and how anyone who is conservative is seen as simple minded. Where is the fair exchange and free market of ideas? It is all about programming people. The intelligentsia at this school don't want a competing view, because then they would actually have to work to justify themselves, and heavens knows liberal educators don't want to do that, when they can get such ready made talking points from the NEA and the like. This is horrible, and I for one hope it emboldens these kids to take legal action and stand up and be heard!
