The Kudzu Called ACORN

ACORN does seem to play the pesky dandilion that keeps popping up all over one's lawn, albeit under different corporate guises.  According to World Net Daily, the House inserted language authored by Steve King to defund ACORN subsidiaries and successors in HR 2017.  The WND article does plug a book by Matthew Vadum regarding the ongoing actvities of these little outfits.  I just ordered it, as I suspect it may be a worthwhile read.

Further down the article we see listed some of these outfits.  Notice that George Soros has his fingers in those pies; it seems that his cash pollutes anything it can.  I'd suggest we take some hard looks at these matters, as the primary elections are less than a year away.

NEA: Why Public Schools Are Down The Crapper

World Net Daily, in an online article, exposed the adulation that the National Education Association bestowed upon Chairman Mao and the Communist Revolution in China.  It suggested October 1st as a day to celebrate that event.  Since the WND article went online, the NEA attempted to sanitize its own site by removing incriminating evidence.  Alas, WND cached it, so it remains for the world to see! 

To briefly summarize what the Communist thugs did to China, I'll give some bullets:

• Persecution of all religions, from the Catholic Church to Tibetan Buddhism, with imprisonment and brutal treatment of leaders
• The "one-child" policy, resulting in forced abortions and sterlilzations, and now a great gender imbalance amongst the people
• Tieneman Square - remember that?

John Dewey, about whom I've written in earlier posts, did much to contrive the mess known as public education.  He is considered the "father of modern education".  While that itself is true, I don't think that is necessarily an honor.  Read the entire WND article to learn how he enthused about communism.   Those of you with school-age children, home-schooling is a viable option, and probably the one that will best enable your children not to lose their souls and their minds.
