Recent bans on red pens used for grading papers and exams has led to an astonishing lack of, “failing” grades.  The kids haven’t gotten smarter though.  No, instead they’re actually getting dumber and more likely to cheat, thinking good grades are owed to them. Now, where would they get the idea of being entitled to equal successes that others attain?

Liberals who like to award trophies for all sports contestants have taken their warped views of rewarding failure and punishing success to school systems where “F’s” are being fazed out because they traumatize students.

Now that “D” grades are the lowest scores, when will they too be banned?  Also, aren’t “A” students intimidating to the rest of the class?

Chalk it up to another well-intended idea with disastrous consequences.





Suddenly “Hussein” Comes In Handy

The New York Times is reporting that Obama is considering a major foreign policy speech from an Islamic capital during his first 100 days in office and we simply can’t wait to see which thugocracy he opts to endorse with his presence.

Most importantly though, after all these months of being told that Obama is a Christian,  has never been Muslim, and that only racists invoke his name in a Muslim context; We’re a little confused as to what anybody thinks Muslims will see in him?  Also, what makes Obama think he has the gravitas to confront the ummah on their home turf.

Surely it can’t his name or anything in his life history.  Everyone knows that’s off limits!
