The A.E.A. and the Democrat Party have been entirely responsible for public schools for the last 40 and 139 years and have never once met with any measure of success, maintaining abysmal rankings throughout the century, hence the old saying, "Thank God for Mississippi!" "More funding, more programs, more teachers and tutors...." has for decades been their rallying cry. Public school teachers argue, of course, that the reason for Alabama's ever poor performance is that adequate funding has never been fully acquired, but, in doing so, unwittingly expose an embarrassing dilemma. If the A.E.A. and public school teachers could not for four decades avail themselves of the Democrat Party, is it not reasonable to assume that a change of leadership might be in order? These partners in perpetual plunder, charged with the forty year failure, and, with infusing into the curriculum the abhorrent Democrat Party social agenda, offer no answers, yet, astoundingly, are the harshest critics of reform, no doubt, for the children. The voters witnessed the removal of the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer, both crucial elements in the development of patriotism, and, their replacement by undesirable sexual education, abortion, homosexual tolerance, and the distribution of birth control pills and condoms despite massive public opposition. The A.E.A. curriculum imbued children with enthusiastic drone-like ambition for all manner of sexual and environmental causes, but, left them unable to name the state's lieutenant governor, and, not surprisingly, alarmed the citizenry. Revision in the realms of history, literature, and social studies, to deliberately marginalize the role of religion, rendered these subjects wholly unrecognizable and remarkably inaccurate, as western civilization was born into, and matured for two millennia, under the aegis of Christianity, and remains at the forefront of human endeavor. Where once children celebrated western achievement, they now study its failure, under the careful tutelage of public school teachers. Public disapproval of this nightmarish A.E.A. curriculum, and disastrous Democrat Party economic mismanagement, has yet to register with public school teachers, and, to them, defies comprehension. Long a cherished and respected part of the community, public school teachers increasingly find themselves separate and apart. Torn between the malevolent agenda and a beckoning community, most public school teachers seek merely to retain their pay and benefits with no concern for declining academic and cultural standards, and, attempt neutrality through silence on immensely controversial issues, content to allow the educational arsonists free reign in the media as long as furthers union objectives and results in no loss of taxpayer remuneration. Too late, public school teachers have realized the inherent doom in unspoken neutrality, and, with fear born of economic uncertainty, have adopted anew tactics that breathe life into old hatreds. For them, there remains nothing else. The citizenry must stand firm against the coming onslaught ........for our children.
