And in Seventh Grade, Junior will Learn How to Be a Bomber…FOR GREAT SOCIAL JUSTICE!
Barack Obama’s semi-BFF William Ayers, who once blew up his girlfriend with his occasionally incompetent bomb-making skills, has been a busy little beaver over the years. Not content with being a killer himself, he’s spent his time worming his way into our public schools. Sol Stern, wrote a pretty detailed expose what I’d usually call leftist silliness, if it weren’t actually being published in textbooks and sold to educators as something to teach to our children. Stern has updated that 1996 article and does us all a good service by letting us know just what a Marxist, anti-American radical the Obamessiah has hitched himself to.
Don’t believe me? Here’s a section from a science textbook he edited called Teaching Science for Social Justice as quoted by Stern:
The marriages between capitalism and education and capitalism and science have created a foundation for science education that emphasizes corporate values at the expense of social justice and human dignity…Science pedagogy framed around social justice concerns can become a medium to transform individuals, schools, communities, the environment, and science itself, in ways that promote equity and social justice. Creating a science education that is transformative implies not only how science is a political activity but also the ways in which students might see and use science and science education in ways transformative of the institutional and interpersonal power structures that play a role in their lives.
Michelle Malkin call it “Reason number 999,999,967 to homeschool” and I have a tough time arguing that. Ayers, and those like him, have spent a couple decades inculcating teachers not in educational best practices or increasing expertise in the subjects they teach, but in leftist tripe like “social justice” and how necessary it is to make every child a radical activist.
I’d be curious to hear what Obama thinks of Ayers’ work. Thus far he’s been curiously mum on the entire subject of his killer friend.

I'm sure this will keep getting flogged, but that horse is dead already:

Is it, spoots? That post doesn't mention that Obama was named the political heir of a prominent Democratic politician at a party hosted by Ayers and his surviving girlfriend. Indeed, Ayers was one of the Chicago politicos that Obama was there to meet.
Obama and Ayers have crossed paths several more times since then, and Ayers has been very publicly non-repentant for his terrorist past. Actually, he's said in the recent past that he was sorry he couldn't have been more violent.
And still Obama ran in his circles.
And both Ayers and Obama will figure prominently in the corruption trial that's only just begun.
Dead? Man, that horse hasn't even begun to gallop.
[...] you’re here, why not take a quick primer in teaching science as social justice? There’s a sectarian war going on in Barack Obama’s stomping grounds. What is he doing [...]
J: "And still Obama ran in his circles."
Must one agree with everyone in one's "circles"? Obama isn't taking his marching orders from the dude. The dude is a big player in the (gasp) "social justice" circles of Chicago– he is involved solely in undeniably good works nowadays. Obama has denounced the dude's past, which occurred when O. was 8 yrs old. Get over it.
Well, spoots, no.
But your reaction to finding out that the guy you've had dinner with a couple times, who has contributed to your campaign, and with whom you worked is a stone-cold unrepentant killer, your reaction should be a little more than "uhhh….who?".
J: "stone-cold unrepentant killer"
Who did he kill?
