Would Thomas Jefferson Approve of Today’s Public Education? (Part 2)

A few weeks ago in Part 1, I finished by discussing how Thomas Jefferson distinguished the U.S. from other countries in asking, “What but education has advanced us beyond the condition of our indigenous neighbors?” But is today’s public education system what he and other Founding Fathers were imagining it could be back then?

The Myth of Liberal Compassion

What will it take for the country to wake up to the destructive ravages of liberalism — and finally do something about them? Liberals continue to masquerade as exclusive proprietors of compassion, but their policies stubbornly undermine their possessory claim.

Use Private Capital for Roads and Bridges, Not Taxpayer Money

This Congress has been criticized for not passing many laws — and praised for that in some quarters. And it’s true that in quantitative terms its productivity has been low.

Jesse Jackson Jr. Will Continue to Loot Taxpayers From Behind Bars

Whoever said that crime does not pay must not follow liberal politics. For example, consider the continuing lucrative career of Jesse Jackson Jr: Although disgraced Illinois Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. suddenly developed a “mood disorder” as the feds were about to indict him, he qualifies for generous government disability payments because it’s considered a debilitating […]

 

Welfare Pays Better Than Entry Level Jobs

America was a classless society. But fundamentally transformed America has three classes: (1) the ruling elite that runs the government/media; (2) the dependency class bred by the elite to keep it in power; and (3) the suckers who pay for it all by working instead of voting for a living. To create this system, or […]

Rubin: NSA Error Rate Nothing To Be Troubled Over

Many of you know that Jennifer Rubin is the Washington Post’s token “Conservative”, and I put Conservative in quotation marks because she is really representing the Establishment, inside-the-beltline, squishy Republican school of thought that anything approaching Reagan type Conservatism.

UNBELIEVABLE: Instead of Guns, University Spends $60,000 on Bulletproof Whiteboards

Is a bulletproof whiteboard better than nothing? Maybe yes, maybe no. Keep in mind that there’s a reason our soldiers carry guns into combat, not whiteboards. UMES faculty members will be issued the 18-inch by 20-inch Bulletproof Whiteboards for use in their classrooms. Like first-generation whiteboards, they can serve as portable writing tablets during delivery […]

Janet Napolitano’s New Gig

The head of one of the most prestigious state university systems in America should have one chief qualification: She should be ideologically inclined toward openness in education for the benefit of the students.
