NEA Keeps Tilting To The Left

by Phyllis Schlafly - July 25th, 2006 - Townhall.com

Parents who wonder why the public schools teach so many things parents don't approve of need look no further than the official policies of the nation's largest teachers union, the National Education Association. Meeting in Orlando, Fla., this year in annual convention over the Fourth of July weekend, the NEA adopted a long series of left-liberal resolutions.

But the NEA certainly doesn't believe in diversity when it comes to schools. The NEA is positively paranoid about any kind of competition, passing resolutions against voucher plans, tuition tax credits, parental option or choice plans, sectarian schools, for-profit schools, distance learning, and home schooling.

It is somewhat amusing to talk with people who support the liberal indoctrination campaign of public schools. They do not see this as something that is inappropriate. Far from it. They laud this as creating better citizens, since obviously that majority that disagrees with them are stupid, and fixing stupid is what schools are supposed to do.

This is a good article to understand just how biased and extreme this program of liberal indoctrination has become.
