The ancient Greeks had caves and flames. We have public high schools and fluorescent lights. Both work equally well as prisons, for the body and the mind.

Hopefully those looking to file criminal charges will have ther day in court.

I know there is a big push to get as much propaganda into children well before the age of reason and maturity. Get em' young, get em' dumb

But participating in changing the schools and the lights is the answer, not crawling into shelter.

"How Modern Liberals Think"
What a bloody hateful video this is. He spends 47 minutes attributing completely heinous views to the opposition and passes it off as believable and sensible. He speaks about his enemies as if he understands them and he is wrong on EVERY issue!

If you love enemies, if you are stupid, if you are ignorant, if you can't connect two dots together, this video is for you!! When he attacked John Lennon's "Imagine" lyrics, he should've been shot in the head (yes, I realize that's not very nice of me). How ridiculous!

He doesn't describe anyone I've ever encountered in my life. Why? Because the enemy in this video simply doesn't exist! Utter neocon propagandistic crap!!

Isn't that something?! That link was first brought out in the thread Online Lefties Intolerant? on page 5. What a place for it, huh? The guy is what he rants against.

Woo-hoo!! You almost make me want to watch the video...... almost. But if he's ripping on John Lennon, I'm afraid my computer screen might suffer the wrath of my anger.

Anyway, I guess some people will believe anything, if it provides "fuel for their fire"... hate to say it, but that makes me think of the old Nazi propaganda videos (which I've seen in documentaries).

You don''t need to see these in documentaries any longer, just watch any left wing speech and you will have it all over again!

Left wing speech? Just what side created the "Patriot Act" that violateds more parts of our Constitution than I'll bother to list. Which side has created secret prisons and authorized torture?

"ein Volk, ein Stadt, ein Furher, zeig Heil!"

Sounds a lot more like the neocon ranting than any of the liberals or conservatives I know.

The O'Reilly Factor will have more news on Boulder tonigt. They sent reporters to the meeting. I guess there was another meeting at another school that advocating smoking dope everyday to kids and that they should smoke it with their parents. It will be interesting to see what else has been uncovered.

I saw the O'Reilly report on Boulder HS tonight. Can you believe some parents in Boulder are so liberal/Secular-Progressive (SP) that they LIKED that their kids are being indoctrinated to use illegals durgs, specially Ecstacy (which by the way kills a ton of kids every year as they 'overheat' because of all the jumping around and die of dehydration and heart attack) and to have gay sex WITHOUT using condoms!!

It is unreal ONLY O'Reilly is reporting this story. The liberal-controlled media is OK with a future generation of kids that contract HIV, have no morals, do not know right from wrong, and are drug users. That way the next generation will be so stupid that they will continue to elect the Kennedy's, Clinton's, and Obama's of the world.

We need to watch so our generation of kids don't become corrupted by liberal/SP schools like in Boulder.

Boulder, CO is a national disgrace. I am serious, people should move out of that cursed liberal hippie town and live in rational places of Colordo (which is a great state).
