So the NAACP, La Raza and the teachers unions are organizing a march on the Mall
next month.
Does anybody else see the terrible irony here?
Ben Jealous, the head of the NAACP, loves to point to the possible racists
among the Tea Party. Jealous is zealous in his pursuit of Tea Party racists.

A conservative student organization attending Palm Beach State College in Florida was recently denied the right to form due to rhetoric criticizing President Obama’s economic policy. The student police, who quickly kicked the group from a recruitment event, handled the situation eerily similar to Hitler’s secret police.
Daniel Diaz and Eddie Shaffer, state members of Young Americans for Freedom — the group victimized — were kicked off campus after college administrator Ms. Ford-Morris was appalled by the material they presented; material published by the Heritage Foundation.

It’s great to see that California, known for their uncontrollable government spending and large deficit, has the money to spend $578 million on a school just a year after they asked the government to bail them out. The school is the costliest in the nation and will be located in Los Angeles.

Three teachers helped spark something in me that made my education worth something.
I wasn’t a very studious student in grade school or high school. I didn’t have much in the way of study habits. But I got lucky because I had three teachers — one in grade school, one in middle school and one in high school — who helped me become very interested in the one subject that would help me get a decent-paying job once I left college.

Anyone who tells you that public schools are public because anyone can go to any school is lying.
You can only go to the schools where you can afford to live in the neighborhood; the school quality is part of the expense of that house.
In effect, our public school system remains separate and unequal.
Bottom line: The public school system is failing its students — particularly those of color.

When I was growing up, I was obsessed with toy soldiers.
I had armies of little Army guys and little German soldiers, whom I would array in various little battles. In place of a howitzer, a well-shot rubber band would often serve as the artillery, and proved the temporary death of a many a little German dude.
One of my earliest memories was getting a Fort Apache set for Christmas. It had little U.S. cavalry soldiers and little Indians, and it provided me with hours of fun.
