The only thing his disappearance proved was that a State will move along just fine on the huge bureaucracies they have created.
If every conservative stopped going to the games or watching them on TV, see how fast the NFL would take note and change its mind.
There is nothing to unite a true believer to one that would advocate and actively promote the murder of the most innocent among us. I think their feelings are simply a reflection of the color of his skin and not what is in their hearts. If they think they can find common ground with a person that believes killing babies is okay, they need to go and reread their Bibles.
I am in full agreement that the feds should have no part of the education system. If I had my way I would disband the Dept of Ed immediately after I had rid us of the IRS, then would go on to ban public sector unions. However, if a complete moron wanted to tell kids to stay in school and learn all they could I have no objection to that. That does not mean I think that the public school system is great. I once had one of my kids teacher tell me a whale was a fish. How the woman made it to be a teacher is rather puzzling.
I would agree that it would be more appropriate if he could have scheduled this talk after school when the parents and kids, could watch him together without the interference of a public school teacher.
If the speech only encompassed the importance of staying in school and doing well, there would be no problem. It's when you add a curriculum to it that is political where there is a problem. Then there is no telling what the sycophant liberal teachers will say to the children afterwards.
Personally, I would like to see the Pledge of Allegiance go away and instead have citizens pledge their allegiance to the Constitution. The Pledge is contrary to our founder's beliefs in that they did not form a perpetual Union. The States are only bound together as long as the contract (constitution) binding them, is followed by all parties. As it currently stands right now, we are a far cry from what the Framers gave us that any state would well be within its right to leave the Union if there is not a correction.
While people might not want to acknowledge this fact, we live under a far more tyrannical government than King George. Unfortunately, one is hard pressed to find any politician willing to stand up and try to correct where we have gone wrong.
I do check the white box, but every time I do I expect to be tasered by the PC police. I should note that I did not write that because I felt they made me be something, but because of how the whole "race" issue has changed. If we had just one box to check that said American, I think this country would be much better off.
BTW - I thought with the mention of Pluto that people would understand I was not be completely serious.
I was born caucasian, it says so right on my birth certificate (not a certificate of live birth), but somewhere in the last decade or so I was stripped of that du to I think the same forces that demoted Pluto from being a planet. Now longer am I "White", I am now "white of hispanic descent".
As these ancestors came from Spain by way of Mexico I have found that people want to say I am of Mexican descent, because that is much worse than using Spain as country of origin. While my fathers side of the family was here before the Revolution, and my mothers side in Texas before it was an Independent country (throw in some native American as well), people still want to classify me as Mexican descent. I can only assume it gives them the feeling that they are superior.
The wholesome and very hot Mary Ann definitely, and you would get a nice slice of pie with her. If that doesn't convince you, Ginger is probably your typical Hollywood liberal Democrat.
How about a real Good versus Evil, that will show the liberals to be the villains. In a shameless plug, it is a film I have been working on for the past year. We make no bones about taking the pro-life side in a documentary that is sure to fire up the left.
