Common Core: Where Did it Come from?

Google United Nations Agenda 21.  Do some research.  Let me know if you are convinced the United Nations had nothing to do with Common Core.  I'm afraid it did.  And does.

Now read  George Will's piece on Common Core.  If the Federal Government has no right to dictate what is taught in our public schools, what in the world is the U.N. doing telling us what to teach?

You've got to admire how Common Core is promoted as a wonderful program for teaching kids math, reading, and writing; how great it would be if every state were on the same page so if kids moved out of state, their new school would be teaching the same thing their old school was teaching.  No one mentions that Common Core also includes Social Studies and History.  No one denies it, of course, but good luck finding out exactly what they plan to teach.  I've already described Damon's lessons on Why Americans Are Evil.  If that's Common Core, I don't want anymore.

Now, if you start reading through Agenda 21, it's not so bad. It sounds like all the U.N. wants to do is save the planet.  If you think they've got good ideas on how to do that, that's great.  Write a blog.  Go on Good Morning America.  Start riding your bike to work and to the grocery store, move into a small home, stop using toilet paper, and don't go on exotic vacations.  Then maybe I'll believe you are more interested in saving the planet than ruling the world.  DON'T SNEAK YOUR AGENDA THROUGH THE BACK DOOR OF MY CHILD'S SCHOOL.  It smacks of something Chairman Mao, the Khmer Rouge, or Hitler would have done.  Or did.

I've been putting this post off because you scared me with "United Nations" and I was worried I'd have to think. But yes, amen, the whole thing is creepy and ultra-fascist.
