Dennis Prager often says that some ideas are so stupid that you have to have a graduate degree to believe them. This is essentially a restatement of George Orwell's line that some ideas are so absurd that only an intellectual (as most of Prager's graduate degreed people doubtless fancy themselves to be) could believe them. <BR/><BR/>Some years ago I told someone that the great triumph of education often seems to be the conquest of common-sense. In any case, Prager's observations might reflect the accelerating absurdity and ubiquity of "higher" (if we take these observations to be true, the adjective "higher" is at least an irony) education. I've wondered if public grammar school education over recent decades enabled the consequence of thelast election in America, as it seems to me that not long ago Obama's extremely liberal record and rhetoric would have been summarily kicked to the curb. George McGovern suffered one of the greatest landslides of my lifetime, and frankly, next to Obama, he's a definite moderate. Now, a lot of liberals (and Obama's words included) want to extend the educational universality to college, and no doubt much money and control would follow, as if they weren't generally liberal enough, already.<BR/><BR/>The other line I often quote is Will Rogers' "It ain't so much ignorance that's the problem, it's the things everybody knows that ain't so." Just so.<BR/><BR/>Actually, Obama and Ayers live in The Hyde Park neighborhood near University of Chicago, but Ayers teaches at The University of Illinois at Chicago and I'm not sure how nearly that is located. But, that doesn't detract from your point that The University of Chicago is one of the country's most florid beds of liberalism.<BR/><BR/>And I definitely sympathize with your experience with public education. I'm pretty certain that it isn't intentional on the part of te4achers or schools. But administrators and teachers are not usually social philosophers. They just execute the material that is handed to them by a misguided communications and higher education establishment.<BR/><BR/>However, it seems to me that the only potential to do anything about it involves very dramatic and disruptive activity on the part of a large number of conservatives, so decisive that I am not yet prepared to discuss it, to avoid troubling people unnecessarily.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1658767945700927168.post-40268839307251922872008-11-25T13:04:00.000-10:002008-11-25T13:04:00.000-10:00Rant:Eisenhower warned of a Military-Industrial Co...Rant:<BR/>Eisenhower warned of a Military-Industrial Complex. We now have a Democrat Political-Educational-Media Complex designed to be mutually supporting and to funnel money from all of society into educational facilities while protecting them from accountability or competition. In Ohio and nationwide the increase in college tuition has been over twice the rate of inflation, while the students have been dis-educated to absorb propaganda and vote without logic, and regurgitate thing that everybody knows but just aren't true and believe themselves are intellegent in their groupthink. We have seen that schools will absorb every ounce of funding offered to them grants, loans, tuition, foundations, everything! and still whine about being undervalued and beg like scwalling baby birds. We are personally engaged with this at levels from pre-school to university, and it is the main reason I fear for the future of this country. Personal example: my wife's young cousin was falling behind grade level, 2nd grade. They placed her in special education, where they expect people to not learn. My wife was in english education and recognized<BR/>the teaching methods as experimental methods from when she went to school, they were results of "publish or perish" which favors the new over the effective, which had been proven to NOT work, but were the latest thing (The math education was completely incoherent and came from the University of Chicago where William Ayers holds court). The educator (not a pyschologist) gave diagnosis with ADD and was going to recommend pyschoactive drugs. We pulled her out, are educating at home, and she has gone from 2-yrs down to grade level, math is now her favorite after bearly being able to add and subtract single digits before. It turns out that her inability to learn was entirely because they didn't know how to or didn't try to teach. Either the entire educational establishment is idiotic, don't care, or they are dis-educating the next generation on purpose to raise a race of robot slaves.<BR/>Hm, normally at the end of a rant I feel better, but now I feel worse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
