Liberals own language and they are good at.<br /><br />Let us stop calling these schools "public" for what they really are is government run schools. <br /><br />And secondly correct anyone suggesting that government run schools are "traditional". There is nothing "traditional" about them. The tradition was homeschool with some tutoring based on the degree to which your parents had the resources and/or the people that mentored you in life (paid or unpaid). That is traditional education. <br /><br />Amazing what students can achieve when they are unshackled from a desk.blogginatornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-40043604837829299782012-08-04T23:12:04.797-05:002012-08-04T23:12:04.797-05:00What an honest to goodness feel good story for the...What an honest to goodness feel good story for the summer this young lady has provided us!

Let me try to connect this together. There is a growing rise in the culture. A growing number of people are fed up with the PC weapon of the left and they are demanding to be heard. They will not go quietly into the night.
