In spite of ignorant mishandling and pathetic backstabbing by campaign staff, and relentless attacks by a paranoid and jealous liberal media, Governor Palin is still standing strong.  While our Blogs page is being redesigned for next year and our next post  in mid- December,  you can read some stuff at  the BlogsPage files. 1, 2, 3, 4.

Education
This website is a strong proponent of school vouchers.  The Washington DC school system has seen student achievement improve as a result of vouchers.  Parade Magazine recently conducted an interview with Michelle Rhee, the new Chancellor of the Washington DC school system. Ms Rhee seems to be focused on both school accountability and student achievement as well as weeding out wasteful management.  "In her first year she closed 23 schools and fired 36 principals." 
Michelle Rhee seems to be going in the right directions. We hope she will be applying the same proactive approach to weeding out funding and agendas geared toward social engineering and radical homosexual indoctrination in the school system, which is also both a waste of time and money, and which has nothing to do with improving the student's ability to learn. 
A recent National Survey by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) found that American students are...judging from the results ... basically becoming LESS educated as we navigate further into the 21st century, and there is no excuse for this.
(Read about Margaret Hemenway's experience. Ms Hemenway is a mother with a first-grade child in the DC school system.)

Here are some excerpts from the Parade interview with Ms Rhee.
"The federal government needs to be bold and aggressive about reform and take on entrenched interests, including the teacher's unions...cutting deals does not do the right thing for kids."

"The most important thing (about No Child Left Behind) is that it has set up an accountability system for students and it emphasizes teacher quality.  It could use a shift in mind-set away from focusing on what credentials teachers have to how effective they are."

Ms Rhee introduced a controversial program that pays students for good grades and attendance. Parade asked her why.  She said: "When critics say that it's sad to pay students, I say, it's sad that only 8% of DC eighth graders are proficient in math.  People in the suburbs use incentives for their kids all the time, like giving them $10 for an "A."  Kids in our program can save money for college or get a bank account."

"Spending alone doesn't produce results - it has to go to the right places.  We closed 23 schools because some of them were operating half-full. We were spending on lights, heat and air-conditioning, and that money was not being felt by the kids in the classroom."

Also read about a Washington D.C. parents' nightmare with a teacher trying to indoctrinate their elementary school age child with lesbian marriage without the parents prior notification or approval.  That's also teaching something illegal in the school because gay marriage is "illegal" in Washington DC.

LightBookproductions

As a conservative resource site, our purpose at LightBookproductions is to try and do our part to create, maintain, and promote conservative ideas and values across the landscape of political communications and media.

We believe conservative thought is, and should be the only way now to align the hand that navigates America's grip on the wheel of modern history, that is, the most constructive way for America to proceed forward into the 21st century.

We also believe conservative thought in America at this time serves as a form of damage control: Damage caused by years of liberal policies throughout government, politics, education, the courts, religion, foreign policy, and especially, the media.
