When Dems want to stay out of foreign wars they are the enlightened voice in the room. When someone on the right has the same take on the matter they are "isolationist". That's how the media plays the word game and a good example of their bias. It's clear to those of us awake, but goes...

The propaganda being spewed by NBC was sickening. That video was hard to watch. I hate to think of all the garbage being feed to their audience when there is no one like Rand Paul to counter their BS.

Beck is saying that he sees Rand Paul and Ted Cruz are the only two legitimate choices for 2016.

Beck has Rand Paul on right now.

You have riddled this thread with "personal attacks". You brought "witch-hunt" on yourself.

I am a father of two elementary aged children and if I want to expose what I see as flaws with the Common Core curriculum (in whole or in part) I have that right. I am speaking on behalf of MY children. Btw, since you are so wise why did you assume me to be female?

I am reminded of this well known quote:

Parents absolutely do (or should) have a say in their children's education curriculum. We can do both.

Because I am exposing flaws in a federally sanctioned education curriculum, and disagreeing with what I find to be your flawed logic, I am being fascist. I guess I had just better fall in line with your way of thinking or risk becoming labeled a fascist. How selfish of me as a parent of two...

You are being ridiculous and absurd.

Here is just a small sample of the lyrics to the song "Po Pimp", which Common Core if perfectly fine with introducing to elementary aged children.

Thank you for contributing some ration thought and perspective to this discussion!

Either you are misunderstanding me or you are being ridiculous. If you as a parent want to teach your child about pimping, twista, gangster rap, etc., then that's fine. But that type of subject matter does not belong in an elementary school setting as part of a reading lesson.

Introducing 9year olds to a gangster rapper like Twista with his vile lyrics and forcing parents to explain what a pimp is, is not appropriate elementary school material. Yet that was exactly the type of material presented via Common Core.

My point wasn't about machine guns. Did you actually read the article or watch the news report? How do you feel about the ganster rapper Twista and reference to his song "Po Pimp" being used as part of the common core lesson to 4th graders? That's what I was getting at.
