Hi
I would respectfully request that the moderators please consider the totality of this post and not look at it from a political bias.
Parents READ!
I just spent two hours in a meeting of people who MAKE DECISIONS about the where U.S. education will go in the next five years...
THE REST OF THE WORLD SHOULD BE AFRAID....VERY AFRAID....
Which country prints the most books in the world?
The U.S.
Which country prints the most school books in the world?
The U.S.
Beware...........Beware........... Beware...........
This history starts in with the Kennedy Administration in the 1960's.
Kennedy said that the United States was behind Russia.
Kennedy never ADMITTED that the people in the U.S. and U.S.S.R. that put people in space and men on the moon were educated in the "old" education system.
Kennedy wanted to "change" education in the U.S. He had to get ELECTED....he said that the United States needed a NEW education system.
This lead to "new" math and "new" science and later, "new" history and "new" english.
The rest of the Presidents, we will not mention them, let things kind of go on.
President Clinton placed millions into the education system to buy votes.
President Bush (2) had to so ANYTHING other than what Clinton was doing so President Bush started "no child left behind".
All of this plays into the teacher unions.
Because of what Clinton spent on education and what Bush spent on education:
The teacher unions "prove" that a teacher is teaching by merely checking off a box that says that the teacher has done something.
NOTICE.....the union method does not PROVE that the teacher has taught something. The requirement is that the teacher has to merely DO the item.
Obama..... from the opposite direction is planning to dismantle President Bush's "no child left behind". Obama is going to REPLACE it with "student activism" in the form of "Americorps" in which the child in the first grade will have a science class that emphasizes "global environmental activism".
The FIRST GRADE students will be given uniforms!
I MEAN.... UNIFORMS!!!!!???? This from a professor at YALE UNIVERSITY......
The students will be required to attend classes which teach that they should try to change the awareness of the world about the environment.
Ok.......YOU say....."What does this have to do with me?
NOTHING....
Yes it does......have something to do with YOU.
The U.S. can print MILLIONS of books.... in SPANISH.... and English....
THINK..............
THINK................
The U.S. WILL......PRODUCE........MILLIONS of books that are in SPANISH!!!!!!!!!
Where..........will these books go?:
They will not "GO" to the U.S.
MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THE U.S. speak....ENGLISH....
THINK!!!!!!...........MILLIONS OF BOOKS IN SPANISH!!!!!!!!!!!
WHERE........ARE THEY GOING TO GO?!!!!!!
THINK!
THINK!!
THINK!!!!!!!!

Woodsmoke is losing it. Someone ban him.
Obama is a great President.
Palin in '12? FAT CHANCE. You've seen what 8 years of republican rule has done to the US. 2 wars and too much debt. Not cool. _________________ AMD Athlon 64 3200+ - 2 GHz | 3 GB DDR | 250 GB HDD | Nvidia Gforce 7900 GT Graphics | DVD Burner | Windows 7 - No fate but what we make... |

Why should I refrain from looking at it from a political bias? After all it was written from a political bias.  _________________ I refuse to live in a country like this - and I'm not leaving. - Michael Moore |

If you wish to attract native Spanish speakers to this thread, I'd suggest that rather than relying on Google Translator or Babel Fish (or whatever you're using), you first change the thread's title to something non-nonsensical. Possibilities:
¡Padres, lean esto!
¡Padres, lean esto sin falta!
Padres de familia: ¡Leer sin falta!
As it currently stands -- Padres leídos -- it means 'well-read parents.'
Hasta lumbago.
P.S.
The same holds true for the Portuguese-language post. Acceptable translations:
Pais, leiam isto!
Pais, leiam isto sem falta!
Pais de família: A ler, sem falta!
P.S.S.
A stab at the German (although my German is weak, so corrections are welcome):

Looks like he still needs to learn how to type.
By the way who cares if we print books in spanish? Like that's a bad thing. The more knowledge the world has the better. Matters not where they were printed.
Some of those statements you typed Woodsmoke are pretty ignorant...  _________________ AMD Athlon 64 3200+ - 2 GHz | 3 GB DDR | 250 GB HDD | Nvidia Gforce 7900 GT Graphics | DVD Burner | Windows 7 - No fate but what we make... |

Cool! Can you help him change the rest of it to something non-nonsensical? OK, maybe that's too much to ask.  _________________ I refuse to live in a country like this - and I'm not leaving. - Michael Moore |

i really don't think government should do the bullshit classes in school, like sex class, political correctness class, thats why private school is better
Bush was an idiot, we all know that.Bush was not even a real conservative.Palin is, and i think she would do a good job.Obama sucks, i gave him time chance but he is horrible, he is ignorant, weak, and full of lies.I don't care what party anyone is anymore, they all have their strings attached, no more bullshit, this needs to stop.The united states is falling apart to these power hungry idiots, this is turning into the fall of rome, obama,bush, both couldn't rub 2 nickles together faster then paris hilton.someone needs to reform the damn government from what is in the heart, now what their party wants or their corporations and media they got in bed with.We are facing trouble with both iraq and north korea, and south korea is wanting to meet with obama, and russia and china are now sick of north korea.What does obama do? Absolutely nothing, and everyone knows he doesn't listen or do anything with hillary clinton.Obama is hiding, he finds this is the perfect time to talk about healthcare plans, maybe as he is at it he can research shots for us to be immune to radio acive waves before its too late.
im not saying go to war with the iron fist (like what we did with iraq which is a failure), but obama is not even talking whatso ever, he is hiding.
i usually hate woodsmokes posts, and when i read the title i was "oh god jim please ban him" but this one just had a light switch for me |

The post was not intended for the politically correct who haunt this forum. It was intended for PARENTS..... of people who might use Xandros who speak OTHER languages.....
The politically correct lefty snipers HAVE a small BIT of hubris..... well....no this is THEIR FORUM.....it is THEIR POND.... HERE....they reign supreme......
except.....this forum actually gets some SMALL circulation in Europe...AND SOUTH AMERICA....
How many here that sniped at this post.......
TRIED TO COMMUNICATE WITH LINX PEOPLE IN SOUTH AMERICA??
I'm.....loooking.....loooking......loooking for hands...
well...........WOODSMOKE....was one of the FIRST.........FIRST.....to try to reach out to our friends in Linux in South America....
LOOOOOK>>>>>>>>AT THE POSTS OF ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO.......
++++++++++++++++++

maybe you can't actually connect one end of a post to the other!!
Obama just happened to be the LAST president involved.....
JEEEZE LOUISE....

understand the POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES....?

BUT.........THOSE PARENTS........might write a letter.......send a text....forward a post.....
to some a person in another country which will never see this post....
I HOPE AND PRAY(I know, not politically correct)....that someone will forward an e-mail.....
But back to the post..........
...............
THINK OF ALL THOSE U.S. T-SHIRTS..ON T.V........HOW DID THEY GET TO BE OVERSEAS????
They got there because YOU>>>>>>YOU>>>>>>>didn't buy them!!!!
I suggest one thing............
EVERY PERSON WHO SNIPED AT THIS POST.....

idea of the massive influence of EUROPEAN, BRITISH, U.S. culture on the romance/germanic(to a smaller extent) language cultures.....
OTHERWISE YOU HAVE NO BASE FROM WHICH TO POST EXCEPT TO BASH WOODSMOKE.....
when you post an image of your certification of an english as second language enabler.....then........you might have some small relevance to the post.
I will not post a certification.

No you should be banned because you post subjects that are off the wall and useless. And you don't know how to type.
Who the heck cares if shirts and books from here or made here end up in the world? It's called trading and is good for business.
Panther - Give Obama another chance. The man hasn't had time to prove himself. Remeber he has to spend a good deal of time correcting Bush's BS laws and actions. It takes time.
Palin is an asshat.
