The past few weeks, okay, MONTHS, have been fairly contentious: fights on Capitol Hill about Health Care Reform; the race card being played again, by a former president, no less; heightened concerns by those in the know about Afghanistan; our children being indoctrinated; and Hollywood Elite calling for the freedom of a convicted rapist and [...]

Recently, I posted a story entitled, “Children Singing In Praise Of The One,” with a video of children literally singing Obama’s praises, inserting HIS name where the name of JESUS had been. That was at the B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, NJ. The school claimed that their song of praise and [...]

You are not going to believe this video below. I don’t care what your political persuasion is, this should ring alarm bills, raise red flags, and generally cause major concern.
If this isn’t indoctrination, I don’t know what is:

All this talk about Obama speaking to the *shoochildren* got me thinking about the school system. Can’t one look at the education system when pondering what a government run health care program would look like?
Like health care, the US spends more than any other country on education (except Switzerland). And like health care, we are [...]

One might think that as a minister type, I am talking about how connected we all are, one to another, all over the world. Well, okay, there is this, “Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part,” one of the Seven Principles and Purposes of the UUA, to [...]

Has there ever been a time when increased skills and education have not been vitally important to furthering one’s well being? As we move forward in developing our ‘new’ economy, education and advanced skills will be increasingly more important.
I would only wish that the dirty little secrets embedded in urban education were more widely disseminated [...]

Recently, my fellow NQ writer, Linda Anselmi, found this article, which she kindly shared with me. It is quite an interesting take on why some women are so threatened by, um, no, wait, that’s not how the author, Ann Marlowe, would phrase it. More for her, why they don’t like her, as the [...]

Doug Belkin’s WSJ article Chicago Student Killings Spark Appeals to Obama discussed the need for the President to take action regarding gang violence:
Chicago Community activists here are calling on President Barack Obama to address inner-city violence after a sharp increase in the number of killings of school-age children.
Total homicides in Chicago are down but with [...]

Is that all? Sigh - it seems like this has been going on forever. Maybe it’s just the MSM’s continued fawning over Obama, like yelling to the rafters what a HIGH poll number he has. Okay, it is more than half, but they are going this nuts over 56%? Seriously??? [...]

I want to let you know that as of Tuesday, 4/7, I will be on vacation in Europe for two weeks. I do not plan on posting anything during that time. As always, I refer you to my Blogroll, and to No Quarter, my home away from home.

Sense on Cents is very judicious in selecting our Economic All-Stars (highlighted in the left sidebar of Sense on Cents). These individuals continually display a level of professionalism, maturity, consistency, and integrity which are not commonly found in our financial or political spectrum. I deeply appreciate their insights and perspectives and enjoy sharing them with [...]

Recently, I posted an email response from my cousin, EJ, a Ph.D in Education, “On Education and No Child Left Behind.” There were so many incredible, thoughtful comments to that post that my cousin sent me the following, again in an email, in response. I am not going to blockquote it, though. [...]

I very much appreciate reading material written by people whom I perceive as having no agenda. I have tried to bring people like this (including Ray Dalio, Paul Keating, Bob Rodriguez, Steve Rehm, Kevin Doyle, Vaclav Klaus, and many others) to Sense on Cents because I firmly believe we all become more educated and informed [...]

Has been nabbed - and not a moment too soon,I might add - the question arises of what will happen to the man who put a halt to Blagojevich’s corrupt ways: Patrick Fitzgerald. Now, some of us were wondering what the hell was taking him so long while Tony Rezko was singing like a [...]

1)Time magazine has an update on the disturbing case of Alabama governor Don Siegelman. If you’ve not been following this story lately, it’s worth a look, as it is one of the most egregious cases of political-turned-into-criminal take downs I’ve ever seen.
Next month in Atlanta, a federal court will hear the high-profile [...]

It took nearly two years with an army of indomitable hunters determined to trap a POTUS* at any cost using any means, but Obama did it.
Now that the biggest, most hazardous, acutely stressful, and toughest job on the planet has been captured, what is Obama going to do with it? I get [...]

I have school-age kids and many nieces and nephews. I certainly hope this teacher gets no where near them. What else can I say about this video? This is wrong on soooooo many levels.
BTW, this is a North Carolina teacher, From Fayetteville. Fayetteville is where a huge Army base, Fort Bragg, [...]
