(Record Online) In an effort to celebrate ‘National Foreign Language Week’ by reading the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic Wednesday, has polarized Pine Bush Senior High School in New York into angry factions.

Wednesday morning’s regularly scheduled announcements included an Arabic reading of the ‘Pledge of Allegiance’ according to students, the announcement was immediately greeted with catcalls and angry denunciations in classrooms throughout the school.

Following the reading, High School Principal Aaron Hopmayer, made a building wide announcement, attempting to rationalize the reading’s context and made an apology to students that were offended.

Superintendent Joan Carbone described the reading as “something that was to be good but turned out not to be.” Cabone says that shes received complaints from district residents who had family members in the War in Afghanistan and from Jewish parents who were equally outraged by the reading.

Pine Bush Senior High School is no stranger to controversy. In 2013 Jewish parents sued the school in Federal Ct accusing them of being indifferent to chronic antisemitic harassment.

Anti-American PledgeDr Charles Angeletti’s Anti-American Pledge Mocks Republicans, Accuses Americans of Targeting Blacks & Communists–Image: Campus Reform

(FOX News) Should one sign-up for Prof. Charles Angeletti course on ‘American Civilization’ at Metropolitan State University (MSU) at Denver, students will be required to recite a satirical ‘Pledge of Allegiance’ what he claims is a racist, sexist, homophobic America, that targets Blacks and “Women who want abortions” in the name of Jesus:

“I pledge allegiance to and wrap myself in the flag of the United States Against Anything Un-American and to the Republicans for which it stands, two nations, under Jesus, rich against poor, with curtailed liberty and justice for all except blacks, homosexuals, women who want abortions, Communists, welfare queens, treehuggers, feminazis, illegal immigrants, children of illegal immigrants and you if you don’t watch your step.”

This pledge was distributed to Dr Angeletti’s entire class who were required to recite it.

Attempts to contact MSU President Stephen Jordan for comment have not been returned.

North Carolina Mom Shocked After Finding This Islamic Propaganda School Assignment

Islam in Schools

(The Blaze) A Mother in Union County North Carolina told WJZY TV  that her son, a freshman at Porter Ridge High School brought home a worksheet containing this Islamic propaganda.

Where is the ACLU’s outrage and their demands that religion has no place in the public classroom? I digress.

This boys homework reads like the rhetoric spewed by the Islamic State (ISIS) note that he got the answers correct.

“Our schools have been infiltrated by the enemy writes Pam Geller and no one–no teachers, principals, other public school administrators have the spine to fight back. They just lay down like lemmings, they did nothing to fight for our freedom so its no skin off their back to throw it away just as long as they’re comfortable, bloated pay and healthcare benefits are not jeopardized.”

Rising College Costs, Too Much Debt or Unnecessary College Courses & Costs?

Friday, November 14th, 2014

San MarcosCalifornia State Univ San Marcos (CSUSM)
2015 ‘Magical World of Harry Potter’ Study Abroad Course

Flashback: Remember in August 2013 when Obama attempted to explain his reasoning and plan to combat the rising costs of college education:

“At a time when higher education has never been more important or more expensive, too many students are facing a choice that they should never have to make: Either they say no to college and pay the price for not getting a degree–and that’s a price that lasts a lifetime–or you do what it takes to go to college but then you run the risk that you won’t be able to pay it off because you’ve got so much debt.”

CSU San MarcosCSUSM Says of the ‘Magical World of Harry Potter’ Study Abroad Course:

“Students will (learn) to identify and critically analyze one significant way in which culture and location in Great Britain shaped the Harry Potter series–For example, these might include how systems of social stratification such as economic class or ancestry in Great Britain are represented in the books and films or how J.K. Rowling utilizes prominent landmarks and historic sites in Great Britain to create a cultural setting for the novels.”

So how pray tell does experiencing the ‘Magical World of Harry Potter’ help students academically to prepare themselves for the real world, being able to find a job after graduating and why are the taxpayers having to fund it?

Tennessee Elementary School ‘Nation of Islam’ Handout Portrays Founding Fathers as Racists

Nation of IslamNation of Islam Handout at Harold McCormick Elementary School
in Elizabethton, Tennessee

(FOX News) The Mother of an 8 yr old wants to know why a Tennessee school teacher gave her child a handout from the ‘Nation of Islam’ portraying our beloved presidents as racists.

Sommer Bauer says that her son was given the ‘Nation of Islam’ handout at Harold McCormick Elementary School which asks: “What Does It Take to Be on Mount Rushmore?”

The handout then explains that George Washington hailed from Virginia “a prime breeder of black people.” Of Theodore Roosevelt, it’s alleged he called African Americans “ape like.” There are also disparaging remarks made of Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln.

Where oh where is the ACLU? What ever happened to that ‘separation of church and state’ thing that they are always arguing and threatening legal action at a drop of a hat against Christians?
