RP students protest 'liberal bias,' push conservative agenda
Rancho Cotate High School students who believe they are being "brainwashed by the liberal bias" in their classrooms are banding together to bring a conservative agenda of God, guns and country to the Rohnert Park campus.

The Conservative Club at Rancho Cotate, which may be the only one at a high school on the liberal North Coast, reflects a nationwide view by political conservatives who long have considered public schools as liberal bastions.

"We're being brainwashed by the liberal bias of teachers. It's everywhere," said Keith Butler, 15, a freshman who is one of the 50 members of the Conservative Club

<snip>

At Rancho Cotate, the Conservative Club stirred controversy by inviting Phil Graf, a local NRA member, to speak on the topic "We Need More Guns in Schools," a provocative presentation suggesting that if teachers were armed with guns, there would be fewer tragedies like the killings at Columbine High School in Colorado.

<snip>

The article goes on to say that the 16 year old president's heros include Michael Savage and Bill O'Reilly. Their agnega most likely supports the all-white Americans.

24. Exactly! Meet the Bush Youth...
The America these violent cretins will forge once they've graduated will make life under Ashcroft seem like paradise.

21. Don't you wish Bush would say that?
Imagine if Bush came out and said, "We ought to have more guns in schools." The political fallout of that would funny as hell.

4. See this thread on the similar activities of their College chums...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=102&topic_id=237578

This is becoming a movement to drive liberal-progressive thought from all of our public institutions.

And, as you will see, there are some on this very board who are less than troubled by these efforts--which is even scarier, IMHO.

11. Not liberal/progressive, but truth and reality
they live in bizarro nazi world, where up is down and wrong is right. They don't like anyone messing with their delusions. The main difference between us and them as far as pushing an agenda goes is organization and unity. They are and have it, we aren't and have never had it. We have to change that, and quickly.

8. It's is funny how these little Bush Jugend members project
Just like their older counterparts...

"We are being brainwashed by liberal bias," as laughable as a Nazi decrying that he is being braishwashed by Jewish Bias.

It would be so funny, if this innoculated mental disease was not generating a brtand of Brownshirts the world has not seen in 60 years..."kinder and gentler" Brownshirts, though.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

9. The fact that they disagree shoots their brainwashing theory to hell
If you can think enough to disagree with someone's philosophy, then obviously no one has discouraged you overly from thinking for yourself.
Most of my teachers, liberal or conservative, always said if you are of the opposite opinion, you are free to present your arguments in a fair and intelligent manner.

14. "For all who draw the sword will die by the sword"
Gods, guns, and country, eh? I wonder if these fuming little conservative shit-demons actually bother reading that big, dusty Bible on their parents' bookshelf.

(That's Matthew 26:52, by the way)

15. I am surprised that none of the usual suspects....
Have made it over here yet.

You might want to look over at the Texas thread that I posted the link to above to enjoy some of their arguments in defense of similar Cheney-Bennett-Pipes inspired efforts in our universities.

You will discover, to your amusement, that anycriticism of these RW-Repuke pressure groups and their tactics represents an attack on "free speech" on OUR part.

Check it out.

20. So where's the bias?
When pressed for examples, Bueler said one of his teachers calls President Bush and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger "idiots" in class. He said several teachers bash Republicans and conservatives as greedy capitalists, racists and sexists.

So where's the bias? :shrug:

22. They can all goose step off to war
while his heros wave at him from their bunkers with gold-plated sinks far behind the enemy lines. He can enjoy getting his head blown off in another bush war.

I can't wait.
