Common Core, Common Problems, Common Reactions, No Common Sense? Who is Responsible for the Children?





Watch Senator Ted Cruz at the Values Voters Summit

Notice the rudeness and intolerance of the Left and how well Senator Cruz deflates it! He will continue to be harassed by the Left since they have no ideas and therefore must act as children demanding what they want over all else! These people are governing our nation? It is the Chicago way! When will the American people get fed up with it and shut them downpolitically speaking?

“How NOT to argue with parents about Common Core

Central planners in Washington have been caught off-guard by the grassroots revolt against the national standards/testing/curriculum juggernaut. Real input from the hoi polloi was never a part of the grand implementation process (Of course not! Who cares what parents think? Are they the experts?”my addition). So when parents and educators in dozens of states started challenging the privacy intrusions posed by and the constitutionality, cost, quality and validity of Common Core, its architects went on the attack (Of course! The necessity to attack the non-expertsmy addition).

And now, the education control freaks are freaking out.

Former GOP Florida Governor Jeb Bush accused moms and dads who’ve vigilantly fought dumbed-down curricula firsthand of foisting ‘mediocrity’ on their own kids (What makes him an expert and why would parents want to do that?my addition).

Bush, Mike Huckabee, Chamber of Commerce types and Gates Foundation promoters routinely have insulted Glenn Beck and his listeners as conspiracy-mongers for raising red flags about Common Core’s data-mining agenda (The same data-mining efforts that is going on with Obamacare! The federal government wants to know everything about each of us! For our good of course! The government knows best! NOT!my addition).

A Fordham Institute ‘expert’ arrogantly suggested that actively involved parents like me were somehow confused about which materials have been ‘aligned’ to Common Core, even though we’re the ones sitting down with our kids to help with incomprehensible homework and error-riddled texts every night in our own homes (You just do not understand!my addition).

Heavy-handed school-board members and state educrats are taking cues from these elitist leaders. When they’re not mocking dissenters, they’re stifling them. Maryland parent Robert Small was threatened with arrest and falsely accused of assaulting a police officer because he dared to challenge a Common Core Kabuki forum.

In North Carolina, a parent writes that her principal refused to meet with a group of moms and dads concerned with dumbed-down Common Core math lessons. Moreover, the parent told the Truth About Education blog, the principal issued an effective gag order when she ‘outright told me to stop communicating with other parents about the Common Core because I was generating ‘unrest (On what basis can the principal do that? Typical reaction! End discussion. What do you know? Whose school is it? More importantly, whose children?my addition).’’

In Colorado, parent Natalie Adams was slapped with a no-trespass order by Jefferson County officials last week after challenging her district’s new boondoggle expenditures on Common Core-tied technology marketed by inBloom (a nonprofit school data-sharing conglomerate funded by the Gates and Carnegie Foundations, with architecture built by Wireless/Amplify, a subsidiary of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation (Whos pushing Common Core? my addition).

In a classic case of psychological projection, New York Education Commissioner John King sneered at parents and teachers who attended his Common Core dog-and-pony show as ‘special interests (Well, YES!my addition).’ After droning on uninterrupted for an hour and a half, King finally allowed two-minute statements from the audience. Parents balked at their kids being used as ‘guinea pigs’ for untested teaching methods; educators challenged Common Core’s assessment-obsessed, one-size-fits-all approach. King petulantly cut off testimony only 20 minutes into the feedback session to filibuster and grandstandand then proceeded to cancel future forums (They obviously were not working from his perspective!my addition).

King dug his hole further by accusing parents of being ‘manipulated.’ But Leonie Haimson, a New York City public school parent, pointed out: ‘So far six out of nine states have pulled out of inBloom or put their plans on hold because of protests from privacy experts and parents in Louisiana, Georgia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Delaware and Massachusetts (Liberal Massachusetts? Ouch!my addition).’

‘Commissioner King’s claim is not only insulting to parents; it reveals how out of touch he is,’ Haimson wrote this week in an assessment that sums up the problem with countless Common Core mouthpieces. ‘He seems unable to comprehend how parents’ desire to protect their children’s privacy is rational (Is it rational to protect it from people who really, really, really care?my addition) and to have the right to decide with whom their children’s most sensitive information, including their names, addresses, test scores, disabilities and disciplinary records, is being shared is completely justified (Only if you lack trust! Trust us! We care!my addition).’

In my home state of Colorado, dissent from both conservative and liberal parents forced Jefferson County to allow individual ‘opt-outs’ from the inBloom data-mining machine (It should be opt-in! But they know fewer people would opt-in!my addition). The Gates Foundation responded by pouring $5 million into the district for ‘innovative professional development systems to create personalized learning systems for teachers.’ How do you spell special interest payoff (B-i-l-l G-a-t-e-s?my addition)?

Not only do these education emperors have no clothes. They have tissue-paper thin skin. Their arrogant, contemptuous and vengeful treatment of dissenting parents and teachers gets a world-class ‘F.’ Listen up:

We parents of school-age children are all Robert Smalls and Natalie Adamses and Leonie Haimsons. We, not the Obamas or the Bushes or the Gateses or educrats in Washington, are our children’s primary educational providers (At least they should be!my addition). Control over our children begins and ends with us (At least it should be!my addition).

It is not easy to stand up and challenge sovereignty-undermining, curriculum-usurping, privacy-sabotaging education orthodoxy, especially when it is plied with a toxic alliance of both big-government and big-business interests.

But if we don’t do it, who will (No one!my addition)?”




Galatians 6: 7-9 (NIV)

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

We need to keep supporting and working for PRO-LIFE, PRO-TRADITIONAL FAMILY candidates and representatives at all levels of government.

Never give-up!

NEVER SURRENDER!

You will know them by their words and deeds!

Matthew 12: 35-37 (NIV)

“A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Matthew 11: 19b (NIV)

“But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.”

Video of Senator Harry Reid in 2006 on raising the debt ceiling to 9 trillion dollars!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELkbDdPeL7I

Now in 2013 they are increasing the debt to almost 18 trillion dollars! That is a doubling of the debt in 7 years!!! In 7 years! And now Harry Reid is claiming that it is essential that the debt limit be raised! What happened? The Democrats took control of Congress and the Presidency! And now all logic is just the reverse of what it was in 2006. They lied then or they are lying now!!!
