Think Common Core is all good, filled with common sense and promotes accurate facts and quality education for our kids?  Think again.

Consider this quote.  "A biography of Barack Obama designed for fourth graders and approved under the new federal Common Core curriculum standards portrays white voters as racists, hell bent on preventing Obama from becoming president."     http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/17005/


If you believe the progressives in charge of our public schools and a slew of sitting judge's have any common sense then you need to read this.  Political correctness smothers all common sense.  They now claim that common household tools found in almost every American household are weapons and as a consequence one school suspended a teacher who brought some to school to teach students their proper use.  US District Judge Robert Dow, Jr. agreed with Washington Irving Elementary School officials for defining tools as weapons and suspending the teacher for four days.  So, now little Johnny can go home and look at daddy's tools and alert the police that his daddy has a bunch of weapons in his garage.    http://www.wnd.com/2014/04/judge-says-ordinary-tools-actually-are-weapons/    

This is the kind of stuff our progressive Common Core betters think our children need to read.    http://eaglerising.com/5727/common-core-required-readings-make-sailor-blush/


A high school student's experience with Common Core.  Quite revealing.   http://eaglerising.com/5668/illinois-cooking-books-common-core/

A teachers experience with Common Core drove her to resign.   http://eaglerising.com/5712/teacher-resigns-common-core/  and this teacher got suspended because he violated progressive's political correctness norms.   http://blog.heritage.org/2014/04/18/punished-teaching-science-popular-teacher-suspended-research-development-imitation-weapons/?

Whether on purpose or not, evidence suggests this is true.   http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/04/universities-now-breeding-intellectual-imbeciles/


This is totally unacceptable.  Common sense and basic fairness is out the door.   http://eaglerising.com/5633/special-needs-student-convicted-crime-recording-bullies-act/

Can you believe this leftist idiocy?  Unbelievable.  They knowingly hire illegal immigrants as school teachers...   http://eaglerising.com/5628/denver-hire-illegal-immigrants-teachers/
