Indoctrination Disguised as Education Reform
Pajamas Media "In a world where Democrats control the presidency and Congress, few have bothered to investigate how this will affect American schools. According to Sekou Biddle, a former project manager for TFA, “we are now seeing the top policymakers all very aligned on a very progressive reform agenda. So we’ve got a much more progressive board than we’ve ever had.” It should come as no surprise that Democrats are poised to infiltrate leftist propaganda into our school system. What is surprising is how easily so many state governments are willing to sell out their children’s futures." Leave our kids alone!
Sorry Blanche, You’re Toast
Jennifer Rubin "The first was the ease with which he cast Lincoln’s plea for a bit more centrism as a call for a return to Bushism — the “exact same proposals that were in place for the last eight years.” That’s not what she was advocating. … The president set up this strawman, and he pummeled it, rather than engaging Lincoln’s valid concerns. The second striking thing was how easily he appeared to write off Lincoln politically. Conceding nothing, he implied that her defeat was not only a foregone conclusion, but also an acceptable price to pay for staying the course on policy."
TelePrompter lets Commander-in-Chief Down as He Misprounces ‘Corpsman,’ Mangles French
Big Journalism "Surely, the White House has someone on the staff who can teach the President how to pronounce the word “corpsman.” It would also be great if someone in media knew what a corpsman is, but the Harvard-educated press’s knowledge of anything having to do with the military is limited to the phrases ”baby killers” and “exit strategy,” so there’s probably not much hope there."
Elections have consequences.
Neal Boortz "So come on, folks, can you see any reason why the Democrats would NOT want to make it difficult to investigate this guy and his department? The department run by the chief law enforcement officer of the United States cannot now be investigated by its own inspector general. "
Obama to get deficit commission with or without Republican help, Hoyer says
WaPo via Heritage "Republicans have derided the commission as a scheme to give Democrats political cover on the issue until after they face voters."

The Left’s Selective Outrage: When Movies Do and Don’t Influence
Big Hollywood "In an editorial bashing conservatives, U.S. Marines, and businessmen on Jan. 19, the Los Angeles Times admits that James Cameron’s “Avatar” has a radical leftist agenda. But, either out of disingenuousness, deception, or stupidity, they then contend, what does it matter?
“We’ll stipulate,” the Editorial Board of the Times wrote, “that ‘Avatar’ promotes a liberal worldview. The question is, why does anyone care?” "...."If it doesn’t matter what people communicate, then the L.A. Times should stop writing editorials and endorsing candidates, every student should be allowed to read the Bible aloud in class, Christian business men and women should be able to use Bible references in their product serial numbers, and “Triumph of the Will” by Adolf Hitler’s favorite filmmaker should be lauded along with “Birth of a Nation.” "
Sen. John Kerry Letter Supporting Code Pink’s Hamas-Aid Gaza Freedom March
Big Government "Massachusetts senior U.S. Senator John Kerry provided a letter on Senate stationery that supported constituents who participated in last December’s anti-Israel, pro-Hamas Gaza Freedom March, led by President Barack Obama ally Code Pink."
James O’Keefe, protector of African-American Children
Big Journalism "The Left accusing James O’Keefe of being racist against blacks is the equivalent of accusing Oskar Schindler of being racist against Jews.
Before O’Keefe became famous throughout the world for his undercover sting of ACORN, he was celebrated in the pro-life world for his undercover sting of Planned Parenthood in 2008, exposing it as the racist organization it was founded to be by eugenicist Margaret Sanger."
Dale Robertson, No Friend of Ours
Pajamas Media "Robertson and his publicist encourage the MSM to consider it a mere squabble between various factions involved in the tea party movement. But quick research on the internet shows that no one in the actual tea party movement wants anything to do with the man.
Needless to say, left-wing sites have been repeatedly drawing attention to him as an example of racism in the tea party."
MATTHEWS AND OLBERMANN NOW OPENLY FIGHTING OVER OBAMA
Ann Coulter "Even when presented with a short, straightforward, simply stated question by Rep. Mike Pence, Obama couldn't help but to formulate a different question. Pence asked: "Mr. President, will you consider supporting across-the-board tax relief, as President Kennedy did?" The question Obama wanted Pence to ask was: Mr. President, will you join Republicans in cutting taxes of billionaires?"
The Tea Party’s Focus: Elections
Big Government "In 2010, our focus must be to overthrow the leftists in Congress at the ballot box. By definition, our focus will be diffused. We will have to divide up 40 critical races and do our best on 395 others. And that’s just the House. We also must win a dozen Senate races, a dozen gubernatorial races, and countless state legislative seats. Our task is mighty."
