Teachers against Standards, Chinese Torture and the Weirdest Mommy/Daddy Story You'll ever See

As most would agree, our educational system is in major need of an overhaul. Most liberals understand the importance of having a good education. They send their own children to the finest private schools in the nation. However when it comes to your children, they talk about the importance of sending them to the local public school. "Strengthen the public schools", they say. However, how can these schools be improved without the willful help of the teachers? Obama promotes merit-based pay for teachers. Of course, teachers unions are strongly against the idea.

The Tibetan people continue to suffer under Chinese rule. When people around the world struggle under tyrancial rule, the United States should at least be a voice against that tyranny. However, our government is impotent when it comes to dealing with China. We've lost our ability to fairly criticize them. They are by far our largest financier. They manufacture almost all of the goods we use in this country. Recently, they've been buying cheap American real estate under the economic downturn. Even when they harrass our ships, we don't do much.
