1619 Project


The New York Times has decided to rewrite our history books and indoctrinate our children with something called the 1619 Project. I was warning my granddaughter to look out for this brainwashing when my daughter, her mother, piped up saying that she has read about this project and found it worthwhile. To see what this 1619 Project really is, it is best to go to the source: NY Times explanation. Read and reflect, then we will go on.

One of the first pushbacks to the notion that our 13 colonies revolted against England in order to preserve slavery was published in The Atlantic magazine (of all places) which quotes many historians disputing this NY Times smear ... see: NY Post critique.

Next, that flaming liberal, Andrew Sullivan, pushed back even harder in the New Yorker magazine (of all places) ... see: Andrew Sullivan critique.

Enough? So The NY Times begins to backtrack on their absurd claims ... see: Legal Insurrection blog post. But, is this enough since much of this liberal propaganda has already been insinuated into the curriculum of many of our school systems? Probably not.

So, the Trump administration is pushing back by promoting the 1776 Project ... see: 1776 Project.

But, has the damage already been done? My test will be if my daughter, after she reads this blog, changes her tune.

STAND UP FOR AMERICA!

To the Rear March!


To the rear march! To the rear march! Remember that funny routine by Sargent Bilko ... where he has his troops in total disarray after a quick series of such idiotic commands. Well, the Diplomad has another precious piece describing "progressives" as typifying such Bilko-isms ... keeping its lefty lemmings off balance with it's ever-changing definition of good and evil. Again, this blog is very well written and right on the mark. (Some clever Hollywood or TV producer should give this former foreign-service worker a new career as a script-writer for a liberal comedy of manners. Or even The New Yorker might run a piece by him ... that would drive the left even more looney!)

Anyway, take a gander ... you're sure to nod your head and smile a bit ... see: Marx might have something ...
