Hey, all you proud Liberal moms out there (sm)


Posted: Mar 27, 2013

I assume you are all happy with what your little darlings are learning in school.  This is not just in Texas, but all over the country, so if they're getting all A's, this is not necessarily a good thing (disclaimer - if you're a progressive, you probably think it is).

That's Proud Liberal, please. This post suggests some here - wouldn't pass a 5th-grade social studies test

and only now are realizing it--but not the reason that'll be so obvious to others.

Why do YOU think we *might* be a target - Our decisions do make others very angry.

[ In Reply To ..]
Saying we might be a target because our decisions have had negative impacts on others is absolutely true. It doesn't mean we DESERVE to be attacked.

Can you see that there is a big difference?

curriculum had nothing to do with controversial 9/11 quiz."

Fact-filled link below.

Contrary to the article posted by the OP, CSCOPE had nothing to do with the quiz. The company that did make the video and accompanying quiz provided a statement and apologized in writing the same day for any misconceptions. In fact, the video was generated to convey a patriotic message, explaining the events of 911 and why we memorialize it.

I'm curious - libertarian

I'd like to know what the other answer options were for that question.

Frankly, it's a factual answer as it stands. I see nothing wrong with it. Did this country do things that other countries perceive as negative? Yes. Simple enough.

I'm more worried about the parents who brainwash their children into thinking this country is loved the world 'round by every other country out there.

answer options here... - priceless

“Why might the United States be a target for terrorism?”

a. Other people just don’t like America.

b. Decisions we made in the United States have had negative effects on people elsewhere.

c. Terrorists hate everyone.

d. None of the above

Is that for real? - libertarian

At least according to the story below (Washington Times).
Really now - libertarian

What do they want? I mean really. Logically speaking, it's the only correct answer.

What happened to teaching history so that we don't repeat the mistakes of the past? What happened to personal responsibility? If you kick a hornets' nest, you're going to get stung.
Libertarian, here's a little one to consider: One reason - we invaded Iraq, resulting in the death
[ In Reply To ..]
of hundreds of thousands and destruction of homes and lives of many millions more, was because we needed a new place to station about 30 thousand or so American soldiers currently in Egypt.

You see, we'd kept those soldiers there ever since the First Gulf War as a general threat to anyone who tried to cross us--or didn't (the Neocon's plan for "preemptive" war), and the people of Egypt had long become very angry with this foreign military presence in their sovereign country (ask yourself how you'd feel). This hostility finally built to the point that we finally HAD to remove them.

But, where to put them? We wanted to keep a military fist in the Middle East. Problem was, no other country could be begged, bribed, or threatened into taking them.

Iraq! Impoverished, partitioned (by us), embargoed (by us), weak Iraq. Invade Iraq, and we could move our forces over there AND force Iraq to sell us its oil, which it had refused to do since the 1970s. And the rest is disgraceful history

Now, gee. What on earth could there have been in that to make the entire planet despise and fear us for it? Oh, oh, oh! Forgot to mention how our president referred to this invasion as a Crusade. How's THAT for a 500-kiloton cherry on top of everything?
No kidding, right? - libertarian

The whole thing reeks of collusion, even as far back as the 60s when we helped Saddam assume power. 9/11 was just a convenient justification for our government to precipitate their own self interests. If I were a foreign power, I'd be really concerned about accepting any "help" from the US. At this point, it's like asking a vulture to pick your teeth.
no kidding - hoot-hoot

If you go to the Rolling Stone website and find Matt Taibbi's article "Wikileaks was Just a Preview" there is a video on there that will chill you to the bone.
