I am old enough to remember part of the communist manifesto to displace a democratic government. The infiltration of the school system was at the top of the list. In the 1950&#8217; a Mr. Albert Shanker created the UFT (United Federation of Teachers) .Mr. Shanker was a wonderful shade of pink. From that moment on education in the USA has been on a down hill slide. It appears Krushev was right when he said &#8220;You will bury  
yourselves&#8221;. 
 
Thank you Lawrence,  you are the only one that has seen through the smoke screen. Kruschev warned us but no one paid heed then, and no one is paying attention to the great indoctrination of our children, from first grade through the highest college degrees. Now we have a community organizer who is working to destroy America and our Constitution. The children in our schools, they are now the liberal? (how about anti American), teachers and college professors that are indoctrinating your children with hate for America, a few at a time. These children will grow up and teach thousands more in our schools and everyone is blind to what Kruschev told us was then, and still is going on wityh your children. The so called teachers Unions want to stop every effort you make to have your children taught about the forefathers of our country. This also goes back to the infiltration of the PTA, which started with well meaning parents and has evolved to what we have today. The Tea parties are a good start and now is the time to also add a broom as another standard and start &quot;A Clean Sweep&quot; movement to sweep EVERY incumbent out of  Washington and clean out State representatives as well. Our so called &quot;enemy&quot; is not Government, Government does nothing to you. Individual people that have names do these deeds, not Government. Stop playing their game, STOP BLAMING &quot;GOVERNMENT&quot; and blame individual people that YOU ELECTED to cut your throat and you keep re-electing them. Start CLEAN SWEEP&quot; mnovements and put names on real people and then VOTE THE PEOPLE OUT of of the office. It is individual living breathing people, that betray you and your country, NOT GOVERNMENT. </description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never understood why any government employee needs to belong to a trade union, especially teachers. I&#039;ve been told that they consider themselves professionals, not day laborers or factory workers. Or are they?  
 What the teachers unions have done to the American education system is akin to what government welfare has done to the poor black families. Years ago, Dr Williams of the James Mason University, School of Economics stated the the Klu Klux Klan could not have come up with a better plan to destroy the American black family as the the liberals and congress did with welfare legislation. The same template can be affixed to the teachers union&#039;s attack on our children&#039;s education in government ran schools.  These socialist unions cannot survive in the face of competition. Charter Schools work! So the teachers unions have decreed that Charter Schools must be destroyed. Maybe we should make a bumpersticker that reads: IF YOUR CHILD CAN&#039;T DO THE 3R&#039;S, THANK A TEACHER&#039;S UNION! </description>

		<description>The arrogance of the Teachers Unions in the face of taxpayers seems to grow exponentially, making the education of our children in government schools more and more difficult.  The hubris of the AFT and the NFT should motivate all of us to do all we can to close down the Dept. of Education in Washington and return education to the states and the parents where in was envisioned by the founding fathers and, indeed, where it must return if it is to be effective. </description>

		<description>THE GOVERNMENT AND THE GREAT UNION (NEA) NATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION. GOVERNMENT AND THE UNIONS SHOULD BE OUT OF EDUCATION. EVERY CHILD AND PARENT SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO ATTEND ANY SCHOOL OF THEIR CHOICE.  
 
THE GOVERNMENT DICTATES PAPER WORK AFTER PAPER WORK. WE HAVE THE STUPID LARMAR ALXANDDER, THAT IS SO STUPID , THAT PUSHED NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND. IT&#039;S A CROCK! THE T-CAP TEST MORE PAPER WORK. DOES NOTHING TO EDUCATE THE STUDENTS.  
 
WHAT WE NEED IS PARENTS THAT ARE INTERESTED IN THEIR CHILDREN. WE HAVE SO MANY CHILDREN THAT DON&#039;T KNOW WHO THEIR PARENTS ARE, PARENTS TOO BUSY, PARENTS ON DRUGS. THE SCHOOLS CANNOT DO EVERYTHING. PUT THE RESPONSIBILITY ON THE PARENTS.  
 
GOVERNMENT CANNOT WIPE THEIR TAILS. </description>

		<description>Here is another example of how teachers&#039; unions are a destructive force against quality education. A NH candidate for a &quot;Teacher of the Year&quot; award was given her pink slip as a reward because she lacks union seniority.
