How Teachers Are Poisoning Our Children

The National Education Association (NEA) is the largest professional organization and largest labor union in the United States, representing public school teachers and other support personnel, faculty and staffers at colleges and universities, retired educators, and college students preparing to become teachers. The NEA has 3.2 million members and is headquartered in Washington, D.C. With affiliate organizations in every state and in more than 14,000 communities across the nation, it employs over 550 staff and had a budget of more than $307 million for the 2006–2007 fiscal year.

On their official web-site, the NEA is currently promoting the radical anti-establishment doctrines of Saul Alinsky. The NEA is actively, and openly, advocating the overthrow of capitalism, free enterprise, and conservative (read that , pro-American) values.

The NEA is recommending that teachers familiarize themselves with Saul Alinsky’s books “Reveille for Radicals,” and “Rules for Radicals.” They then can then pass the seditious information on to their students—our children.

The NEA web-site contains numerous quotes from the Alinsky books—whether to educate those who might not read the books, or to whet the appetite of potential readers, I can’t say.

Here is a sample quote of Alinsky’s from the NEA web-site:

“Society has good reason to fear the Radical. Every shaking advance of mankind toward equality and justice has come from the Radical. He hits, he hurts, he is dangerous. …Radicals are most adept at breaking the necks of Conservatives.”

Approximately 80% of America’s teachers are “liberal.” This means that, for generations, conservative values have been downplayed, ridiculed, and dismissed. It’s killing our country.

Approximately 70%-80% of Americans hold conservative values, but our children are being educated to despise the very traditions that we hold dear.

There can be no doubt about this. There is no debate. It’s a fact.

It’s past time to get active, folks.

For those who desire more proof, I would suggest Charlotte Iserbyt's excellent research work included in her book "the deliberate dumbing down of america" (yes, all lower case). She worked in Pres. Reagan's Dept. of Education, and her information is well footnoted and documented. However, it is not even similar to reading a light novel. I believe it can be obtained in either hard cover or paperback, but she lives in Maine, so can be contacted regarding availability.
