Tell me, does this sound partisan to you? |
|
I went through my daughter's end of year kindergarten papers and one of the papers they got in class to color depicted an elephant holding a flag and it said underneath the picture....
"Elephants always wave the flag"
Now I know I am a reactionary liberal but I felt like it was some sort of subliminal message to associate elephants (gop) with the flag...and my assumption was that they gave this paper out prior to Memorial Day to the kids...
I was almost tempted to send it to the school principal with a scathing reply but I managed to collect myself and just pitch it in the garbage...

5. But seriously, that kindergarten teacher is pushing the Goebells... |

Button on this one.
It's obvious that there is a partisan motive behind this.

2. Of course it's partisan and has NO place in kindergarten. |
|
But your child will learn much more from you than she will from a teacher she probably will never see again. Just teach her your values, and as she gets older, explain the injustices in her world and what side you're on. She'll be just fine.
