mistermain said:Canuck, why is it that you bash America in nearly all your posts? Who the hell are you? Is Canada really that great? I could care less when whiny liberal AMERICANS bitch about America, but when outsiders do it it makes my blood boil. Go watch some hockey, and kiss Celine Dion for me. That's your only claim to fame, sad as it is.

mistermain said:We'll keep Shania, and Jim Carrey. They can have Dion, and Hockey.

Right there.....Columbusite said:The problem is that stupid, ignorant parents beget stupid, ignorant children by passing on their non-values to them. Making it worse is the large number of them. Saying "God Bless America", pledging allegiance to the flag, and being pious are what too many parents think is all that is needed for them and their kids to be good Americans. Not to mention whining about parential responsibility while letting TV raise their children and pushing for the government to take care of them so they don't have to. All this instead of valuing education, critical thought, and understanding the basic principles of this country.
mistermain said:Canada can take you too then.
Canuck, I am not referring to just this post. Every post is in regards to America. You seem to be consumed with the actions of Americans. Maybe that is why Canada means nothing to the rest of the world.
teacher said:True Canuck enjoys bashing America but his point, or Jeff Renses point, has merit. How can such a great country on the leading edge of technology have so many stupid people? How does one pass 2nd grade and not be able to read "Fox in Sox"? Billo's reason is obvious but the teachers and parents of those that can't got some splaining to do. Find the kids that can't read, find the teacher and the personnel that passed them and fire them.
Or is it a government conspiracy to keep people stupid and easily controlled?
UtahBill said:The parents come in and insist they be passed on to the next grade!!!!!
And in answer to your conspiracy question, yes, that is the way it was. Anymore, a conspiracy is not needed. Being stupid is the new educational standard. Our government has achieved optimum dumbness among the masses.:mrgreen:
