We Give Dem Yutes Hea Da Bestest Skoolin'

We have seen the Propagandist in Chief operating in full campaign mode for over a year now. HIS focus of late has been to shore up what appears to be the dwindling "yute support".

The latest straw men to be hit by the Obama torches are the privately funded universities, colleges, and trade schools.

Never mind that these schools, which rely almost exclusively on private funding, almost invariably offer a better opportunity for their graduates out in the real world following graduation than do their government funded counterparts.

Obama and his minions have all been skooled in Critical Legal Theory and Critical Race Theory as well as every course that could be described by the end phrase "STUDIES". This is what HE plans to offer our children as HIS chosen curriculum ad infinitum.

This latest executive order signed just last week is nothing more than another attempt to offer the traditional total indoctrination to all students and especially to those who have returned returned from military service feeling somewhat disenchanted with their lot and the "Big Government Status Quo". Private schooling and home schooling are not to be permitted in the NWO.

On Friday’s “The Five,” co-host Eric Bolling took issue with President Barack Obama’s Ft. Stewart, Ga. announcement of an executive order to crack down on institutions that “aggressively target veterans” for the G.I. Bill’s tuition assistance, saying that the men and women of the Armed Forces don’t need the president’s protection from so-called predatory institutions, as they have faced much worse on the battlefield.

“These heroic men and women do more for freedom, more for America in a day, than you will ever do, sir,” Bolling said. “Don’t insult them by talking about schools preying on them. They take live rounds. They deal with roadside bombs. They risk their lives, sir. They’ll be OK with Dean Wormer.”

Bolling went on to castigate Obama for what he perceived to be a campaign speech with soldiers as a backdrop.

“And by the way, how about you stop insulting Americans who see right through you while you deliver a left-wing campaign speech while pretending to give a damn about their service?” he continued. “And one more thing — quit using our military as photo op — it’s unbecoming of a commander-in-chief.”

Charlie Savage...NY Times...Apologists here for Obama’s use of executive orders point out the other recent presidents who’ve also overreached their use of executive orders. This makes the abuses more important, not less, as this has been an on-going deviation from the Constitutional limits of the president since at least FDR in the 30s. An executive branch run wild makes the abuses of kings and dictators almost inevitable. That is why it must be reined in; that’s why the framers constructed limited powers in their document. On the otherhand, there’s clear evidence that all of Obama & co.’s study of the Constitution must have been focuses on tactics to skirt its limitations.

UPRISING: Hip Hop & The LA Riots

This video is being set for release on May first. Which just happens to coincide with this:

May Day: A Radical Strike into the Belly of the Beast

May 1st is recognized worldwide as International Workers’ Day, a holiday originating in response to the Haymarket Massacre of 1886 in Chicago, where workers fought for the establishment of worker protection measures, namely the eight hour workday. However, while the rest of the world marks May Day as a celebration of the working class, the United States is left with Labor Day—a banker’s holiday hurriedly passed through Congress by Grover Cleveland in an attempt to appease the outrage generated by the murder of railway workers at the hands of United States Army troops during the Pullman Strike.

May Day, along with notions of radical worker action, has largely been ignored in the United States in recent years. But the time for complacency has passed. While a worker walk-out may have been born from the secessio plebis of Ancient Rome, English Chartist and radical preacher William Benbow brought to modern times the idea of general strike as a “sacred month” in the first mass working-class labor movement. In 1877, the Great Railroad Strike began the first major labor action in the United States; centered in East Saint Louis, the strike shut down all industrial railway traffic through the National Stockyards, letting only passenger and mail trains through. In 1936, early in Franklin D. Roosevelt’s presidency, a series of strikes spread; half a million textile workers united in states across the country, dock workers and their associates in San Francisco, and radical Teamsters in Minneapolis all fought against the violence of police and armed strikebreakers. These strikes, and the unemployment councils that cropped up to encourage progressive change, pushed Roosevelt to enact bold reforms to the American system.

Over the course of two days in December of 1946, radical action brought City of Oakland to a standstill. The general strike there inspired the anti-labor Taft-Hartley Act that President Truman called a “conflict with important principles of our democratic society,” even as he used it twelve times over the course of his presidency. The act essentially killed the general strike as a tactic for the labor movement.

The power of the working class, however, is not tied to mainstream organized labor; concessions by the AFL-CIO to the government’s National Labor Relations Board have made the organization little more than a special interest group for the Democrats, even as they pass anti-labor and anti-free speech legislation. While the working class needs the strength of militant unionization—the IWW Food and Retail Workers United union in the Pacific Northwest being a good example—the policies of the National Labor Relations Board are decidedly anti-worker. Capitulation of reactionary unions to NLRB demands, and to the Democratic Party, constitutes abandonment of the working class.

Double Standard: Black Men Named Trayvon Get Killed all the Time, But Th...

Dershowitz blasts the prosecutor in the Zimmerman/Martin case for not revealing all the evidence and seeking a 2nd degree murder charge. He says that not only has the prosecutor suborn perjury and should be charged for it, but may also be responsible if there are riots over not winning the case because she set expectations way to high.

The Dear Leader Has Saved Us...uhh...or not

An Obama Administration official told reporters this week that the War on Terror is now over.
The Weekly Standard reported:

“The war on terror is over,” a senior official in the State Department official tells the National Journal. “Now that we have killed most of al Qaida, now that people have come to see legitimate means of expression, people who once might have gone into al Qaida see an opportunity for a legitimate Islamism.”

This new outlook has, in the words of the National Journal, come from a belief among administration officials that “It is no longer the case, in other words, that every Islamist is seen as a potential accessory to terrorists.”
The National Journal explains:

The new approach is made possible by the double impact of the Arab Spring, which supplies a new means of empowerment to young Arabs other than violent jihad, and Obama’s savagely successful military drone campaign against the worst of the violent jihadists, al Qaida.

But just hold on to your Bibles and guns there a minute folks. Just today we learn that that our own talented and courageous Janet Nepolitano has declared an alert status on the anniversary of bin Laden's death.

I guess Obama didn't get this memo in time to delay the "end of the war on terror".
  

US issues terror warning for bin Laden’s death anniversary

Days before the one-year anniversary of Osama bin Laden’s death, U.S. authorities are concerned about possible “lone wolf” terrorists who may use the date to avenge the former Al-Qaida leader’s death, Fox News is reporting.

They have not seen any specific, credible threats to the U.S. homeland, Fox reports, but in an intelligence bulletin issued late Wednesday:

… the FBI, Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Northern Command note that terrorist groups such as Al-Shabaab in Somalia, Northern Africa’s Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, and the Pakistani Taliban have called for revenge against the United States for killing bin Laden during the May 1, 2011, raid on his hideout in Pakistan.

The bulletin says Al Qaeda or its affiliates would view an attack “on this anniversary as a symbolic victory,” especially in the wake of losses suffered by Al Qaeda through U.S. drone attacks and other efforts overseas.

Say no to Kony 2012...And To Corrupt US involvement

I saw this poster plastered on an electrical box at a major intersection in my "Ville" today. I just happened on this excellent take written by Matthew Smith which details the folly of America's involvement with third world dictatorships or with the so called liberators of said countries.

This is how it began in Afghanistan with the Mujahideen

Is this how it will end on the African continent?

From American Wing 


What interest does America have with Joseph Kony in 2012? Joseph Kony is an African warlord and leader of the Lords Resistance Army in the African nations of Congo, Sudan, and Uganda. Kony’s LRA army is said to be composed mostly of children....

Here is a story on related foreign issues...From...The Guardian

Relations between the US and Afghanistan's president, Hamid Karzai, came under renewed strain after a senior Congressman highly critical of the Kabul government was barred from entering Afghanistan.

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, Republican chairman of the House foreign affairs subcommittee on oversight and investigation, has been an outspoken opponent of Karzai. Rohrabacher has engaged with other Afghan leaders about a more decentralised form of government for Afghanistan and called for a US investigation into alleged government corruption.

He had been leading a delegation to Afghanistan but was stopped in Dubai on Friday on his way to Kabul. The other members of the delegation had visas for Afghanistan but Rohrabacher did not.
According to his press spokeswoman, the US secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, personally intervened to convey a message from Karzai that the congressman would not be welcome and asking him not to continue to Kabul.

Rohrabacher was still in Dubai on Sunday but scheduled to depart on Monday.
Karzai has repeatedly infuriated the Obama administration with his sharp public criticism of the US, even as Washington spends billions of dollars on security and aid in Afghanistan.
Blocking entry to a member of Congress adds to the growing tally of incidents that have strained ties.

"This doesn't look great a month before Chicago," a senior diplomat in Kabul said.

Nato is due to hold discussions at the Chicago summit next month on future relations with Afghanistan, and the US and its allies are expected to seal an agreement for long-term funding of the Afghan police and army...Read More

FYI... This agreement, which was voted upon by the Afghan government; but will not see a vote in our own Congress; will extend US involvement and continue existing corrupt funding for at least another 10 years after the so-called troop withdrawals begin next year, or in 2014. Most analysts believe that this is another open ended commitment similar to what we have been stuck with in South Korea and in Europe...ad nauseum. 

The "Brotherhood" Is In The House

I have warned you of the dangerous anti-Israel woman, Samantha Power; wife of Cass Sunstein; in the past. Just as Obummer is speaking at the Holocaust Museum this week, begging for support from his Marxist Jewish followers...Yes they are Marxist Jews...I said it!...The Dear Leader has moved Power up the ladder on his panel of Muslim Brotherhood gangstas in the White House.

Despite his phony claims of ‘having Israel’s back,’ Barack Obama appointed Samantha Power to head his new Atrocities Prevention Board. This is the same Samantha Power who called for US forces to invade Israel and be stationed on their border to force through a ‘peace’ settlement.

Yid With Lid...

Only Barack Obama! Today the President tried to show he was a friend of the Jews with a beautifully crafted speech Holocaust Museum. Showing his words mean nothing, also today Samantha Power began work today as chair of President Barack Obama's new Atrocities Prevention Board. If you don't remember Ms Power she once called for a US force to invade Israel and force through a "peace settlement." Powers also had some unflattering things to say about about America's Jewish population during the 2008 campaign
How long do you think it will be before Powers uses that board as tool to de-legitimize Israel?

Power was a foreign policy adviser to the Obama campaign in 2008 when she blamed the Jews for the criticism of then Candidate Obama's foreign policy platform.

In 2002 she sat for an interview with Harry Kreisler, the director of the Institute for International Studies at Berkeley. Kreisler asked her the following question:

Let me give you a thought experiment here, and it is the following: without addressing the Palestine - Israel problem, let’s say you were an advisor to the President of the United States, how would you respond to current events there? Would you advise him to put a structure in place to monitor that situation, at least if one party or another [starts] looking like they might be moving toward genocide?

Power's response seen in the video below is her advice to the President would be

• “Alienate” the American Jewish community, and indeed all Americans, such as evangelical Christians, who support the state of Israel, because Israeli leaders are “destroying the lives of their own people.”

• Pour billions of dollars of the taxpayers’ money into “the new state of Palestine”

• Stage an American ground invasion of Israel and the Palestinian territories — what else can she mean by a “mammoth protection force” and a “military presence” that will be “imposed” by “external intervention”? — Interestingly she considers the exact same thing the height of arrogance and foolishness when it was done in Iraq.

In an effort to promote collaboration between small and medium-sized businesses in the United States with businesses overseas, the State Department has reached out to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood, according to an online briefing for foreign reporters last week.

Undersecretary of State Robert Hormats says he has spoken with members of the Muslim Brotherhood about “promoting smaller enterprises,” according to CNS’ Terence P. Jeffrey, and that he will be speaking with other Middle East and North African leaders on the same topic this week.

“America’s a big economy with a number of big companies. We also have a lot of small and medium-sized companies. And we know in many parts of the world, there is an effort to support small and medium-sized enterprise,” Hormats said.

Frank Gaffney...Townhall Daily...The Muslim Brotherhood? Yes, that would be the same organization to which President Obama recently transferred $1.5 billion of our tax dollars in a lump sum payment. To do so, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had to waive congressionally imposed restrictions born of fully justified concerns about the nature and direction of the shariah-adherent government the Brotherhood is birthing in Egypt.

Mrs. Clinton’s presidentially-directed waiver came despite: the Brotherhood-dominated government’s hostage-taking of American democracy activists; murderous Islamist rampages against Coptic Christians and other religious minorities; the toleration and abetting of escalating violence against Israel in and from the Sinai; and official threats to jettison the 1979 peace treaty with the Jewish State. And matters have only gotten worse since the President’s largesse was made available in an unusual up-front, lump-sum payment.

"We The People" Are Screwed

President Obama has given himself the powers to declare martial law — especially in the event of a war with Iran. It is a sweeping power grab that should worry every American.

On March 16, the White House released an executive order, “National Defense Resources Preparedness.” The document is stunning in its audacity and a flagrant violation of the Constitution. It states that, in case of a war or national emergency, the federal government has the authority to take over almost every aspect of American society. Food, livestock, farming equipment, manufacturing, industry, energy, transportation, hospitals, health care facilities, water resources, defense and construction — all of it could fall under the full control of Mr. Obama. The order empowers the president to dispense these vast resources as he sees fit during a national crisis.

Read more: Jeff Kuhner at The Washington Times

The 2012 NDAA deemed the United States a "battlefield," as Senator Lindsey Graham put it, and gave the president and his agents the right to seize and arrest any U.S. citizen, detain them indefinitely without charge or trial, and do so only on suspicion, without any judicial oversight or due process.

The new Executive Order states that the president and his secretaries have the authority to commandeer all U.S. domestic resources, including food and water, as well as seize all energy and transportation infrastructure inside the borders of the United States. The Government can also forcibly draft U.S. citizens into the military and force U.S. citizens to fulfill "labor requirements" for the purposes of "national defense." There is not even any Congressional oversight allowed, only briefings.

In the NDAA, only the president had the authority to abrogate legitimate freedoms of U.S. citizens. What is extraordinary in the new Executive Order is that this supreme power is designated through the president to the secretaries that run the Government itself:

• The Secretary of Defense has power over all water resources; *See below*

• The Secretary of Commerce has power over all material services and facilities, including construction materials;

• The Secretary of Transportation has power over all forms of civilian transportation;

• The Secretary of Agriculture has power over food resources and facilities, livestock plant health resources, and the domestic distribution of farm equipment;

• The Secretary of Health and Human Services has power over all health resources;

• The Secretary of Energy has power over all forms of energy.

The Executive Order even stipulates that in the event of conflict between the secretaries in using these powers, the president will determine the resolution through his national security team.

The 2012 NDAA gave the Government the right to abrogate any due process against a U.S. citizen. The new Executive Order gives the government, through the Secretary of Labor, the right to proactively mobilize U.S. citizens for "labor" as the government deems necessary and to coordinate with the Secretary of Defense to maintain data to coordinate the nation's work needs in relation to national defense.

President Obama’s ambitious plan for stepped up government regulation of the oceans includes an unreported effort to cede U.S. oceans to United Nations-based international law, WND has learned.

The plan was previously a pet project of Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, whose ocean-zoning scheme was partnered with a globalist group that also aimed to hand over U.S. oceans to U.N. governance.

Obama’s plan is still in draft form. It calls for an executive order to be issued for a National Ocean Policy that will determine how the ecosystem is managed while giving the federal government more regulatory authority over any businesses that utilize the ocean.

The executive order is to be based on the recommendations of Obama’s Interagency Ocean Policy Taskforce, created in 2010 also by executive order...(snip)

The Taskforce’s final recommendations, based in part on the supposed effects of “global warming, were released in a 78-page paper reviewed by WND.

The entire third section of the report recommends that the U.S. join the U.N.’s Law of the Sea Convention.

**One little fact not mentioned here is that under the new Obama Oceans plan, every water way, watershed, or source of water that eventually gets into the ocean will be under the total control of the Obama Regime and or the UN.

In other words if a snowflake falls on Pikes Peak, then finds it's way into the Colorado River, this order places Pikes Peak under total federal authority. Or if a coal mine or fracking operation in WV brings one drop of water into the eco-system it can be shut down by Obama at any time according to HIS whim.**

I Am Woman...Hear Me Squeal

Political sources revealed to The ENQUIRER that MICHELLE OBAMA brain-stormed the scheme to sic a pit bull strategist on the GOP contender’s wife ANN ROMNEY and it backfired!

Talking head Hilary Rosen set off a firestorm when she mocked Mitt Romney for relying on his wife for advice on the economy, sniping that Ann – who raised five sons, has battled breast cancer and suffers from mul­tiple sclerosis – “never worked a day in her life!”

Rosen was forced to apologize, say­ing her words were “poorly chosen.” Even President Obama got into the act, saying there’s “no tougher job than being a mom.”

A publicly sympathetic Michelle, 48, tapped out a message on Twitter, writing: “Every mother works hard, and every woman deserves to be re­spected.” But behind the scenes, her fingerprints were all over the scandal, said an inside source.

“Michelle had her claws out to get Ann, but it quickly backfired and Barack was livid when he heard she had secretly directed the attack,” said the source...(snip)

“Michelle is determined to do whatever it takes to keep her husband in the White House. She’s learned politics is a dirty business. It’s only a matter of time before she comes up with another plan to go after Ann.”

Ted Nugent - Dog Eat Dog

Ted Nugent is the man! He may not be a genius, but he knows where he can tread, and he realizes all to well who the REAL enemies are.

I would love to be a fly on the wall at his meeting with the Secret Service today. I think I know whose side the real men in the room will come down on.

“If you don’t know that our country is wiping its ass with the Constitution, you’re living under a rock some place,” Nugent said, according to Politico.com. The Motor City Madman officially endorsed Mitt Romney last month.

“If you can’t galvanize and promote and recruit people to vote for Mitt Romney, we’re done,” Nugent said. “We’ll be a suburb of Indonesia next year.

Our president, attorney general, our vice president, Hillary Clinton — they’re criminals, they’re criminals.”

Following his recent controversial statements about President Barack Obama, Ted Nugent will be questioned by the Secret Service on Thursday. Nugent, who has in some circles become more famous for his politics in the last 20 years than his music, said at a National Rifle Association convention that, “If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.”

One would think that someone about to be investigated for a possible threat against the President of the United States would want to lawyer up as soon as possible, but Nugent has been appearing all over conservative media outlets in the past few days. According to Rolling Stone, the guitarist was on Glenn Beck’s radio show Wednesday morning to discuss the situation.

“We actually have heard from the Secret Service and they have a duty,” Nugent said. “I support them. I salute them. And I look forward to our meeting tomorrow.”...More at Uliimate Classic Rock

Let Them Eat Their Own Fish

Following North Korea's failed missle launch the big party celebrating Kim Jung Il's 70th birthday went on as planned.

UK Guardian...North Korea has pulled out all the stops in it's celebration of what would have been the 70th birthday of the supreme leader Kim Jong-il, who died in December 2011. Gifts in the runup to the event included a six-metre tall statue of the leader riding a horse alongside his father Kim Il-sung, commemorative coins and medals, stamps, congregations and slogans etched into mountain faces.

See the inspiring video HERE.

In a move meant obviously to mollify the starving masses, Kim Jung Un has mandated that all "Slaves of the State" recieve gifts on this momentus day.

But read on...

From NPR

    Amid the adulation for dead dictators, one salutary tale: to mark the celebration, the party ordered that all North Korean people be given gifts - a windfall of 15 products including pork, fish and rice.

SHIN JU HYUN, DAILY NK

LIM:

But it gave out no money to pay for this largesse, according to Shin Ju Hyun, from the Daily NK website. So, in an Orwellian touch, the already-struggling people were forced to fund their own gifts. Looking forward, few expect major economic reforms, which could lead to a loss of political control. So, can this regime survive?

ANDREI LANKOV: Actually, the North Korean government is in a very bad situation. Now, what they are trying to do is to win some time, to postpone the collapse.

LIM: Andrei Lankov from Kookmin University believes collapse is inevitable at some point.

The American Game As Seen By A Brit

By Tim Stanley

I went to my first ever baseball game on Friday night. I didn’t think I’d enjoy it. It seems too similar to cricket, a game so long and boring that it feels like training for life in a nursing home.
But I was pleasantly surprised. Baseball’s a fast moving battle of nerves. When it comes down to three “balls” and two “strikes,” the guy at the bat has the world on his shoulders. If he takes another strike, his head hangs low. If he knocks it out of the park, he stands among the gods. The rules are simple and any confusion is cleared up by more beer. After two hours, I graduated from total novice to seasoned pro – shouting, “You could see the ball better if you got a haircut, hippie!” and “Hit it, don’t swat it, Zimmerman!” [That Zimmerman really bugged me. His whole technique seemed to rely on the pitcher not being able to throw. Is the man allergic to running?]

My buddy explained to me how baseball is an analogy for The American Way. Everyone gets a go at the bat. If you hit a home run, that’s great. If you strike out, that’s your lot. It’s very meritocratic, with no prejudice and ample rewards for the talented.

Then there’s the complex relationship between the individual and the team. At face value, baseball’s an individualist sport because it’s all about the man at the bat. He swings, he runs, he’s in command of his destiny.

But he’s also playing for the team, and sometimes sacrifices have to be made. If someone’s already at third base, the goal of the batter is to hit the ball far enough to allow his teammate to get to fourth – accepting that he’ll probably get taken out himself as he sprints to first. It’s a reminder that a necessary ingredient for the flourishing of the individual is the health and the wealth of the people around him. For you to succeed, others must succeed, too – and as with baseball teams, so with nations. We’re all in this together.

Another, more stark, reminder of that truth is the role that military pageantry plays at a baseball game. At the start of the contest, the CIA honour guard trooped the colours and we were all invited to stand and applaud the folks serving in the US military.

But nothing prepared me for the moving rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner, as sung by a female soldier in combat fatigues. The stadium stood proudly – hats clasped to chests – as she powerfully, beautifully sang the national anthem. “Does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave/ O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?” It sure does.

I have a rule on these occasions to stand but not sing or put my hand to my chest. I am an Englishman and my loyalty is to Her Majesty (“My country right or wrong, my mother drunk or sober”). So, I can’t in good faith join in. But I’m always inspired by the earnest love that ordinary Americans show for their country. I envy it.

Nationalism in the UK is a dirty word (largely because it’s been sullied by racists), so instead we have a soft patriotism that prefers to keep itself to itself. For us, love of country is probably best expressed by a Sunday afternoon walk across the Surrey Downs. It’s a half remembered school hymn about vowing something to someone-or-other, or a fevered argument about the best way to make a cup of tea. English patriotism is about as fulfilling as a Greggs pasty.

In contrast, American patriotism is sharper and more certain – and more fixedly about ideas. Its promise is individual freedom. But that freedom is guaranteed – just like victory in a baseball game – by thinking and acting as a team or a nation.

One of the reasons why civil society works in the US slightly better than it does in Britain is that they understand the balance of rights and responsibilities between the individual and the group. Without the security of a welfare state, Americans are acculturated to risk and sacrifice, and so (ironically) they can be a little more charitable than us.

They are certainly more free.

After the game we moved to a bar and got chatting with some young marines, who were talking excitedly about the fact that they are going to present the flag at one of the ballgames next week. After that, they will fly off to war. We are lucky to share the world with a nation that produces men like these...The UK Telegraph

Women Rule...Prog Men Drool

I would like to preface this post by saying that I was raised by a family who respected and honored our mothers. They taught me more about life, nurturing, teaching, devotion to duty, teaching, AND FINANCES than I ever learned in our public school system or in university later on. These women were; AND STILL ARE; the bedrock of our society. Our men were the civil engineers of our time, but the women worked along side of us and still raised us kids, healed us when we were sick, taught us what we needed to know about survival in today's world, and were the real glue that held the American family together.

However, I would like you to read later in this post what Allen West has to say about what Prog Womyn have done to our schools and our society in general over the past decades.

The Conservative Private School System At Work...

“Louisiana is poised to establish the nation's most expansive system of school choice by adopting a package of vouchers and other tools that would give many parents control over the use of tax dollars to educate their children.

The initiative would effectively redefine vouchers, which have typically helped lower-income public-school students pay for private schools. Vouchers could now also be used by students to pay for state-approved apprenticeships at local businesses, as well as college courses and private online classes, while they are still in public schools.

The legislation would also pave the way for the rapid growth of charter schools—public schools run by non government entities—and make Louisiana one of a handful of states to adopt a ‘parent trigger’ provision, letting parents vote to convert their low-performing schools into charters. Louisiana's legislature passed the sweeping education package last week, and Gov. Bobby Jindal, the Republican architect of the overhaul, hopes to sign it into law next week, said a spokesman..."

In a piece Dr. Green and eight other researchers published for Education Week in February, four specific areas of agreement are emphasized.

• School choice improves student outcomes—voucher programs have a significant positive effect on graduation rates and lead to modest improvements in math and/or reading scores.
•  
• School choice improves public schools—voucher programs have a positive effect on the performance of public schools in the area.
•  
• School choice saves taxpayers money—even with conservative assumptions of the impact of school choice on state and district budgets, the results have been positive.
• School choice has not harmed students, taxpayers or schools—whether it be in studies of academic performance or public finances or the quality of public schools, voucher programs have not been shown to have any negative effects.

With the importance of educational success to keep America competitive, lawmakers need to embrace the school choice programs that have a proven positive effect. Expanding school choice will improve public schools and student performance, helping to adequately prepare the next generation...More at The Commonwealth Foundation

This Is How We Are Failing Our Children...from Allen West

Last week, Tea Party favorite Rep. Allen West (R-FL) addressed his base at a Women Impacting Nation (WIN) meeting in Boca Raton, FL. WIN’s mission is to “educate and equip women with knowledge of God’s truth” and “to support those who take a stand for those Judeo-Christian values upon which our country is founded.” West used examples of “historical fiction” to instruct attendees on the proper role for American women — namely, to make strong men.

West first weaved the ancient society of Sparta — a culture that practiced eugenics and inspired Adolf Hitler — into an example of the role of women. “What made the Spartan men strong, it was the Spartan women,” he said. “Because the Spartan women at the age of nine gave up their male sons” to train for the army. West then exulted conservative women to come forth and “lock shields” to “strengthen up the men who are going to the fight for you.” Painting women’s rights advocates as “women that have been neutering American men,” West charged attendees to fight these apparent castrators who want to force male subservience:

WEST: We need you to come in and lock shields, and strengthen up the men who are going to the fight for you. To let these other women know on the other side — these planned Parenthood women, the Code Pink women, and all of these women that have been neutering American men and bringing us to the point of this incredible weakness — to let them know that we are not going to have our men become subservient. That’s what we need you to do. Because if you don’t, then the debt will continue to grow…deficits will continue to grow...From Think Progress
