THE DEFICRATS AND OUR CHILDREN

I have, for decades, believed our schools were centers for extreme leftist, socialist indoctrination, and that this was primarily the work of the Democratic party in the furtherance of Soviet style despostism. Information coming to light in the past few days tends to bolster my beliefs, and should sound alarms for parents of school aged children.

With the announcement of Obama’s speech to a joint session of Congress and schools across the country next Wednesday, the president shows Americans just how much he does not respect parents’ authority or his limited duties as POTUS. This direct broadcast of a presidential address to American schools is unprecedented. Even when past presidents have had a message for the youth of America, it has been left to school officials and parents to decide, after hearing it first, if it was something children should hear, or if it could be presented by parents or teachers. The original content of the "study package" provided by the Whitehouse as an attachment to the speech should give everyone evidence as to the intention of this speech. The Whitehouse has made "revisions" to the study package, but I dare say their purpose will not denied by revisions to a few questions. I believe this speech, supposedly addressing health care reform issues, will include statements directed at children intended to influence their thoughts concerning that debate, ignoring the fact that younger, more easily influenced children should not have such weighty and complex issues forced upon their minds by government.

Another example of the Deficrat’s attempt to use children as tools to advance their extreme, socialist, destructive policies is the
No Child Left Inside Act of 2007, an ammendment to the No Child Left Behind re-authorization bill.

 

The NCLIA states as its purpose…

"Climate changes, depletion of natural resources, air and water problems, and other environmental challenges are pressing and complex issues that threaten human health, economic development, and national security. Finding wide-spread agreement about what specific steps we need to take to solve these problems is difficult. Environmental education will help insure our nation’s children have the knowledge and skills necessary to address these complex issues."

This speaks for itself, and proves my point regarding the intent of the Deficrats to promote their policies using our children as their lobbyists.

While it is too late to try persuading the POTUS against anything described here by me, and is probably not worth keeping children home that day, I believe parents should speak with their younger children before and afterwards regarding the speech and its content to impart their own beliefs on the subject to their children.

It is not too late, though, to act on the issue of the No Child Left Inside Act. As is usual in these types of situations, calls and letters to elected officials, inclusion of this issue in the TEA Party agenda and at townhall meetings, and generally letting your opinions be known, is the very least we are responsible to do.

The flagrant nature of the left’s attempt to force their ideology on the world would be hilarious if it weren’t so damned destructive to America.

THE TRUE NATURE AND PURPOSE OF ENVIRONMENTALISM

Ask almost anyone from any background if there is any value to human life and they will think it is a trick question. Press them for an honest answer and you will get something akin to, "Of course human life is valuable," or "Human life is the most valuable thing on Earth,". I believe that the overwhelming majority of people on Earth are of the same belief. There are, of course, those fringe elements in the world, who hold human life as less than the most valuable, while some see it as the least most precious. The current manifestation of radical Islam, Hitler’s Nazis and their final solution, and crazed, sociopathic murderers all see no value to some portion of humanity. But in our world today is a minority group of well educated, highly dedicated people who, in their beliefs and actions, are more dangerous to the existance of humanity than all these other groups combined. This group is the hard core environmentalists. The environmental purists believe that nature, in its most virgin form, is the only thing of value in existence. They see man not as a part of nature, but as a cancerous disease and destroyer of Earth and its non-human occupants. Their core values are such that, unlike Hitler whose murderous crimes targeted the Jews and gypsies of the world, and unlike Islam who see infidels as deserving to die, these environment/nature worshippers seek nothing less than the total eradication of all humankind as the ultimate goal and they are hard at work in everyway they can conceive to see that goal achieved.

Some may say that I am exagerating in my conclusions and that environmentalists just want to reduce pollution and global climate change to insure we don’t ruin our home planet. To those I submit the following, quoted statements…

"Human happiness, and certainly human fecundity, are not as important as a wild and healthy planet. I know social scientists who remind me that people are part of nature, but it isn’t true. Somewhere along the line – about a billion years ago, or half of that – we quit the contract and became a cancer. We are a plague upon ourselves and upon Earth.

It is cosmically unlikely that the developed world will choose to end its orgy of fossil energy consumption, and the Third World its suicidal consumption of landscape. Until such time as Homo sapiens should decide to rejoin nature some of us can only hope for the right virus to come along." ---David M. Graber, biologist with the National Park Service, reviewing The End of Nature by Bill McKibben for the Los Angeles Times Book Review, October 22, 1989.

"Phasing out of the human race will solve every problem on Earth, social and environmental." ---Dave Foreman, founder of Earth First

It is the belief in nature, not mankind, as the supremely valuable entity which makes these people dangerous. And it is these people who, under the guise of higher education and expertise, have made the environmental movement the political and social beheamoth it has become. They are responsible for the creation of the EPA, the animal rights movement, the global warming/climate change farce, the push to find alternative sources of energy, and the majority of reasons for the decline and hatred of western civilization in the world. One of the ways they seek to dominate and control mankind is through collectivism, destroying the rights of individuals and making all humankind reponsible for everything detrimental to nature, even if the harm is imagined or fabricated. Collectivivsm is the core for ideologies such as Marxism, the Nazis, and radical Islam. Only humankind as a whole is worthy of life. Individuals are there only for the benefit of all humanity. Any advance or progress by a group of individuals is wrong if the whole of humanity is not included in the benefits of that advancement. If the hardcore environmentalists had their way, which is the case most times today, mankind would de-evolve back to its fundamental, non-technical beginnings and would exist as cave dwelling, hunter gatherers who are at the mercy of their environment.

What they don’t want to admit is that the ability to adapt, humans being the ultimate success stories at adaptation, is built into even the first humans and has naturally evolved into what we are today. It is no more or less natural than the rise of mammals after the jurassic, the survival of the shark and alligator, and the multiple instances of mass extinction of myriads of species by nature itself. Man is naturally inquisitive and that leads to him seeking a better and easier way of life. It is called human nature, and there is no evil in its ideals.

The environmental movement is at the core of the majority of modern man’s social and economic ailments. Their methods are subtle and constitute social terrorism. Only the total annihilation of the environmental movement will insure man’s progress in social, economic, humanitarian, and technological endeavors. We don’t require the guidance of radicals to teach us that we need to do our best at what we attempt. Mankind already has that sense of self-preservation built in and will follow it if allowed the individual liberty to do so.
