Who is more ignorant, Rep. Lee or those who support and vote for her?
Great question, John. Or another way of asking the same thing– Which came first– the chicken or the egg?
It’s painful to think about the money that’s been wasted on education in this country when the end results are abysmal and down right embarrassing. Let’s face it – the goal is not education, rather indoctrination. The Teachers Union is a campaign finance arm of the Democratic Party and nothing more and their posters kids are Lee, Cortez, Omar, and anyone on the View among many others in DC and Hollywood.
You are right, Jan. Some of the inner city schools are nearly brain dead. And the phenomenon of “social promotions” in public schools assures people who are not learning are promoted each year to the next grade.
Golly, gee. I thought the moon was made of green cheese. (-:
Fred, I can’t help but remember having seen moon rocks at one or more of the museums I have visited. But I guess they must have been gaseous moon rocks.:)
When you are in the ruling class, you can say anything you want.
That’s pretty horrifying, Healey, that this woman would be considered part of the ruling class. But she is, of course.
Contrast it with Congressman Steve King, whose entire career was ended (with the help of Kevin McKarthy) for supposedly telling a NY Times reporter that there were some good things about Western civilization.
Orwell’s America.
I blame part of this on the weakness of Republicans, Healey. It shouldn’t be this way.
