We aim to Enlightentain! Whoever that woman is, she so perfectly encapsulates the smug ignorance of The Left, she might possibly be a Babylon Bee parody. The smug tone is spot on! Asking us stupid dummie-dumbheads if we "realized" we were voting to dismantle Jimmy Carter's Marxist Propaganda Factory as if that would come as a surprise to us. She is the PERFECT PRODUCT of the drivel that has poured forth from Columbia Teachers College and the Dept of "Education" since 1980. Good riddance.
Do all you can to make sure she does. I have a very small pool of liberal morons left who speak to me, so her identity is going to have to come from someone else!
We don’t hate them, but it’s difficult not to mock them and their hypocrisy. It is probably so apparent that we don’t need to point it out. But I do hope that in calling them to task, that someday some of them will see the light. Perhaps is ‘28 with the smooth talking, even tempered Vance, they will come around. President Trump is just too triggering for that to happen.
As a 40 year educator, I knew the department of education was over bloated and unnecessary. The states however, must be mandated to show quality criteria for curriculum, as well as a national agreed upon mastery in reading, writing, math, civics, geography and history, so no American student falls behind.
Relax, I am betting Jill's suggestion of mandates is more about educational standards. Yes, I agree that mandates tend to go off the rails and become one more teach-to-the-test hobgoblin, but there is no need to levy ad hominen attacks at Ms. Grunewald.
The Communist clowns at the Dept of Propaganda long ago stripped content from the curricula. Many American students will "fall behind" depending on how one measures results.
We left Manhattan with three kids in the school system. I can say beyond a doubt that the schools in Florida beat hands down the arrogant pricks in New York City, who spend their days mocking southern States.
Smaller class sizes, wider array of offerings - on every metric the schools in Florida that we have attended are superior to NYC.
The only "mandate" any school should have is from the community of parents who support that school. It is FINE to publish suggested standards for parents and teachers to debate robustly.
But all these obnoxious mandates have ever done is cause teachers and bureaucrats to teach to the tests which come along with mandates.
It is another symptom of "Big Government" thinking, whether Democrat or RINO. Self-appointed elites cannot stand the idea that they are irrelevant at best, damaging more likely and cannot resist telling hundreds of millions of other people what to do.
Nothing succeeds like a free market - for prices and for ideas. Let millions of people make their choices -the best ones eventually win out.
I’m a conservative who voted straight Republican but wow - conservatives sure do hate liberal white women. It might not be a bad idea to remember that many of us are the swing voters who elected Trump. Don’t let the Democrats be right that conservatives hate white women.
I am married to a liberal woman who is often mistaken for being white, whom I love enormously. I have multiple relatives and friends who are liberal women, some of them white.
I have no idea what nonsense you are spouting.
I was mocking THIS white woman who is indeed stereotypical in her condescension and bloviating ignorance.
They don't teach they push propaganda on 5 year olds ..I didn't vote for it but I'm not upset about it .
Thank you Sir. Well said. I agree

I hope she gets to see your very sensible answer.

Let a thousand pedagogic flowers bloom.
Yes, bush and cheney’s no child left behind forced teachers to teach to the test and critical thinking went out the window!
