Judi Puritz Cook is a douche. Why can't her kids promise to be loyal to their country? I feel bad that her kids are gonna grow up to be a-holes because their mom is instilling these crackpot values in them.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

According to the Tab, it seems many parents aren’t upset that the school is requiring special permission to recite the Pledge, but rather they are concerned the slips could mean parents are imposing their beliefs on their children.

Superintendent Bill Lupini said that won’t be the case: no student will be compelled to participate or not participate simply based on how a parent filled out a permission slip.

“We’re celebrating diversity and including people… and then to be the one sitting there, waiting for the pledge to finish, [that] doesn’t feel inclusive,” said one parent who checked “No” on the slip. “Yeah, it’s weird. That’s the right word for it.”



this must be from and alternate universe....no?...or just "progressive thinking"

Which portion is that?

Other than the ones that pay nearly twice what we do in taxes...
Or the ones with twice the jobless rate
Or the ones with completely destroyed state government
