Why Knock Indoctrination?... It obviously WORKS!

Was there ever any doubt that indoctrination works?

"education experts told FOXNews.com"

Okay, Neal McCluskey is NOT an education expert. Sorry. His credentials are essentially being a high school english teacher.

Thanks FE! I was feeling pretty tense when I got up this morning.  A good stretch is just what I needed!

Now I'm not a huge liberal, Obama lover by any means, but I really have trouble viewing Fox news as a reliable source for anything political. A democrat, or anyone with liberal views for that matter, could propose a bill that would single-handedly get the nation out of debt and fix the economy and Fox would call it fascist, commie nonsense. It's ignorant people like the "journalists" at Fox that represent what's wrong with our country, they'd rather defame the Democratic party and any non-conservative than try to find a better solution. The only thing the Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck types are doing is dividing the American people. Whatever happened to United We Stand, Divided We Fall?

You're definitely disproving him there FE.

Ummm, being over 35: Check

Natural born citizen: Check

Resident for fourteen years: Check

Winning the electoral college: Check

That would be all that is required for that job...

The "problem" with this type of Presidential involvement in school is the potential of the "agree to grade" beast. Educators being notoriously more to the left, any class presentation work done by the student as per Obama's instructional message will be graded on a hugh bias curve. Your child(and parents)agrees, and good grade is recieved, your child(and parents)disagrees and the grade will reflect. Obama actually saying that he will push his agenda through this "talk" on today's youth and let them decide, is in itself something many should look at.

Never has this type of pushing your agenda on youth been attempted by an American President, now Stalin and your Communists, as well as Hitler and National Socialists understood the power of youth indoctronation. Each faction targeted youth with political ideology early, and history is the judge on that level of success, 14 year old boys armed with a Panzerfaust and an ideology defending Berlin with a fanatical resolve for all they knew was the message of National Socialism, and died cluthching the "prized" Hitler Youth knife. The Youth of Communism as well, on the fall of the Soviet Empire, the youth who were indoctronated on the "Workers Paradise" could not digest what the fall actually meant, and a generation had to adjust to reality, not to the fantasy they were taught in thier schools and by thier leaders.

Even Marx and Engles understood targeting the youth was the true key to thier cause, for only youth have so little real world expierience to balance the agenda message on.

As stated by thier Teachers Union Representatives, show me a Republican asupported by a Teachers Union since 1964. Peer pressure is a terrible thing.

OS, what the hell are you talking about?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. There is no political ideology or bias here. It is just the tinfoil hat wearers making that up. Much like the "death panels" that didn't exist.

Anything Obama does you disagree with just for the sake of disagreeing with the man.
