Good, There a quite a few links there that I have not yet read. Sadly, my take is that the Ayers-type folks have already won. Then, I see youngsters like you who have survived the indoctrination and I have a bit of hope.

Yeah.. I guess you’d be grateful for a break in education news right now. (wink) My head is about to explode from going to my sons’ school board meeting. Remind me again why I’m PTO president?

Crimson Wife,

I don’t consider terrorism [or murder, for that matter] a black-or-white issue. Having said that, there’s no reason to avoid assigning it the horrible status that it deserves. Even if one considers it necessary – even if the situation dictates it – that has no bearing on the horror of the thing. It is terrible, it is awful, and there’s no reason to pretend otherwise. That’s one thing I’d like the elites to admit.

What I can’t understand is how such a large number of elites in this country can be so morally relativistic that they can’t acknowledge that terrorism is never justified. Even if they’re sympathetic to the goals of the attackers, why can’t they just admit that the means are despicable? Some things really ARE black-or-white, with no shades of gray.

How many thousands of other Americans were fiercely opposed to the VietNam conflict during the 1970’s and frustrated with the government but still managed to act in a completely non-violent manner?

I don’t really mind the lack of attention given to education. Actually, I appreciate it a great deal. There are most pressing issues right now, I think.

Ayers scares the hell out of me. Rush Limbaugh was talking about him, and I was glad that someone was FINALLY talking about Ayers’ connection to Obama. Plus, Rush brought up ACORN.

This election is going to be a nail-biter. I was disappointed in last night’s debate because they did not address any education issues. They also passed the huge hot immigration potato. I wonder how the next debate will go.
