One More Reason To Homeschool Your Kids

Jay Bennish is now on paid administrative leave from his job as a teacher at Overland High School in Aurora, Colorado. Why?

A 10th grade student in Bennish's World Geography class recorded his class on February 1 of this year; the contents of which has fortuitously made its way into the news.

You can listen to the teacher's 2o minute tirade against the USA, President Bush and his administration, the FBI, the CIA, Israel, democracy and capitalism, by clicking on this link, courtesy of 850KOA News Radio. Michelle Malkin is in the process of transcribing Bennish's tirade on her blog.

Bennish has been a teacher at Overland HS since 2000, and some of his students rated him at "RateMyTeacher.com" prior to the events that led to his suspension from the classroom. Though there aren't many comments, you can read the student ratings at this link, and you can read the parent ratings at this link. The only parent comment prior to the current controversy reads:

03/08/2005 - "This young man fails to teach history or civilizations, he pushes his own personal political opinions on students, presents them as facts and gets angry if parents challenge him."

So it seems that some folks have noticed this guy's propensity for filling young skulls full of mush with leftist dogma. And he's been doing it at Overland HS for 6 years.

That's a lot of kids.

SMACKDOWN!

Recipient: Cindy Sheehan.

Blue Star Mom Deborah Johns delivers the blows.


My dad, an old Marine, taught me, my three sisters and two brothers how to fight. I was just a little kid but I remember to this day, my father showing me how to make a fist and then coaching me on how to hit with it. Dad said "If somebody hits you, hit them back. But don't just hit them one time and think the fight is over. You have to keep on hitting them until you are sure they are down and not going to get back up."

Deborah Johns didn't stop with just one blow. She kept right on hitting Cindy Sheehan - with the facts of Cindy's siding with the insurgents, calling our soldiers "terrorists," using the names of dead American soldiers without the families' permission. Deborah Johns' dad must have taught her the same things my dad taught me. God Bless you, Deborah!

P.S. Don't just read the transcript at the link above. Listen to the audio. You'll be glad you did.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Liars always get caught.
