CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 17, 2023
ANOTHER SCHOOL YEAR IS UPON US AND A GOOD TIME TO CONSIDER WHETHER YOUR CHILDREN, IF YOU HAVE THEM, ARE BEING TAUGHT SUBJECTS NECESSARY TO A GOOD EDUCATION, OR INDOCTRINATED WITH THE SECULAR-PROGRESSIVE WORLDVIEW.
U.S. STUDENTS IN MOST STATES AND ACROSS ALL DEMOGRAPHIC GROUPS HAVE EXPERIENCED TROUBLING SETBACKS IN BOTH MATH AND READING – IN MATH THE RESULTS WERE ESPECIALLY DEVASTATING, REPRESENTING THE STEEPEST DECLINE EVER RECORDED ON THE NATIONAL ASSESSMENT OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS. THIS DECLINE DATES BACK TO THE EARLY 1990’S, SO IT’S NOT ALL THE FAULT OF THE PANDEMIC.
THEN THERE’S THE ISSUE OF SOCIAL ISSUES; BOYS IN GIRLS LOCKER ROOMS AND TRANSGENDERISM, THE TEACHING OF AN ALTERED HISTORY OF AMERICA AND SO MANY OTHER THINGS THAT I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THE CHINESE AND MANY OTHER NATIONS ARE NOT FIXATED ON.
WITH SCHOOL CHOICE AVAILABLE IN INCREASING NUMBERS OF STATES, WHY WOULD ANYONE SEND THEIR KIDS TO PLACES THAT UNDERMINE WHAT ONCE WERE CONSIDERED THE STANDARDS AND VALUES THAT MADE AMERICA SUCH A GREAT NATION? WE DON’T SEND OUR TROOPS TO AN ENEMY NATION. WE TRAIN THEM HERE. IT’S THE SAME WITH OUR KIDS. WHY SEND THEM TO GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS THAT UNDERMINE OUR VALUES AND THE NATION? I’M CAL THOMAS.
I have recently read America’s Expiration Date and A Watch Man in the Night.
Both should be required reading for all High School Students.
Since I am 75, I am familiar with most of the events in your book.
The question now is what do I do with the information other than how I vote?
Thanks very much, Jim. I would say talk to your neighbors and friends and see if they are up to speed with the truth (not what they may be watching on cableTV. Space exploration is also a possibility! Find anotyer planet to live on and do it right this time! Thanks for reading my books.
p/s – I heard you speak many years ago at a church in Huntsville, AL.
