| My Opinion Articles I have written that address today's issues |
| So just a little self check-up Are you a Walmart freak? 1. Do you wear your pajamas when shopping there ? 2. Do you congregate in isle and talk about things like Nascar? 3. Do you think Walmart is the only place you need to get all your fashion needs? 4. Are slippers a acceptable foot wear for public? 5. Is the trip to Walmart considered a family outing? 6. Do you make the cashier hold back items until everything else is rung up to see if you have enough cash? 7. Does your 8 year old ride in the basket? 8. Is your hair business in the front and party in the back? 9. Is the gap in your teeth due to them falling out 10. Is it your fantasy to attend a tailgate party at the next grand opening of a Walmart in your neighborhood. |

Perfection is just the first step to the next level
I received this from an educator and share many of the opinions of the thoughtful friend who sent this to me.
If every school principal gave this speech at the beginning of the next school year, America would be a better
place. If agree please send this message on.
To the students and faculty of our high school:
I am your new principal, and honored to be so. There is no greater calling than to teach young people.
I would like to apprise you of some important changes coming to our school. I am making these changes
because I am convinced that most of the ideas that have dominated public education in America have worked
against you, against your teachers and against our country.
First, this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not care less if your racial makeup is black,
brown, red, yellow or white. I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, Asian or
European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower or on slave ships.
The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, is your individual identity -- your
character, your scholarship, your humanity. And the only national identity this school will care about is
American. This is an American public school, and American public schools were created to make better
Americans.
If you wish to affirm an ethnic, racial or religious identity through school, you will have to go elsewhere. We
will end all ethnicity-, race- and non-American nationality-based celebrations. They undermine the motto of
America , one of its three central values -- e pluribus Unum, "from many, one." And this school will be guided
by America 's values.
This includes all after-school clubs. I will not authorize clubs that divide students based on any identities.
This includes race, language, religion, sexual orientation or whatever else may become in vogue in a society
divided by political correctness.
Your clubs will be based on interests and passions, not blood, ethnic, racial or other physically defined ties.
Those clubs just cultivate narcissism -- an unhealthy preoccupation with the self -- while the purpose of
education is to get you to think beyond yourself. So we will have clubs that transport you to the wonders and
glories of art, music, astronomy, languages you do not already speak, carpentry and more. If the only
extracurricular activities you can imagine being interesting in are those based on ethnic, racial or sexual
identity, that means that little outside of yourself really interests you.
Second, I am uninterested in whether English is your native language. My only interest in terms of language
is that you leave this school speaking and writing English as fluently as possible. The English language has
united America 's citizens for over 200 years, and it will unite us at this school. It is one of the indispensable
reasons this country of immigrants has always come to be one country. And if you leave this school without
excellent English language skills, I would be remiss in my duty to ensure that you will be prepared to
successfully compete in the American job market. We will learn other languages here -- it is deplorable that
most Americans only speak English -- but if you want classes taught in your native language rather than in
English, this is not your school.
Third, because I regard learning as a sacred endeavor, everything in this school will reflect learning's
elevated status. This means, among other things, that you and your teachers will dress accordingly. Many
people in our society dress more formally for Hollywood events than for church or school. These people
have their priorities backward. Therefore, there will be a dress code at this school.
Fourth, no obscene language will be tolerated anywhere on this school's property -- whether in class, in the
hallways or at athletic events. If you can't speak without using the f-word, you can't speak. By obscene
language I mean the words banned by the Federal Communications Commission, plus epithets such as
"Nigger," even when used by one black student to address another black, or "bitch," even when addressed
by a girl to a girlfriend. It is my intent that by the time you leave this school, you will be among the few your
age to instinctively distinguish between the elevated and the degraded, the holy and the obscene.
Fifth, we will end all self-esteem programs. In this school, self-esteem will be attained in only one way -- the
way people attained it until decided otherwise a generation ago -- by earning it. One immediate consequence
is that there will be one valedictorian, not eight.
Sixth, and last, I am reorienting the school toward academics and away from politics and propaganda. No
more time will devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, or terrifying you about sexual harassment
or global warming. No more semesters will be devoted to condom wearing and teaching you to regard sexual
relations as only or primarily a health issue. There will be no more attempts to convince you that you are a
victim because you are not white, or not male, or not heterosexual or not Christian. We will have failed if any
one of you graduates this school and does not consider him or herself inordinately lucky -- to be alive and to
be an American.
Now, please stand and join me in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of our country. As many of you do not
know the words, your teachers will hand them out to you.
