School votes to drop "Jefferson" name

(Written on June 9th- held for further development that never came....)

Then I say federal funding should be withheld.
This is disgraceful. And unAmerican. There! Finally, an instance where one of us conservatives actually did call someone unAmerican, as opposed to the myriad times when we've been accused of that for simply disagreeing with some liberal BS. (And, I'm actually calling the action unAmerican.)

Yes, I say it's unAmerican to dishonor Thomas Jefferson by removing his name from this school. And ignorant. It shows no appreciation for historical context and reveals a severe lack of any sense of proportion.

I went to a Jefferson Elementary School, in Blaine, MN, so maybe I could be accused of having some sentimental attachment to the name. But I don't think that's it at all. (And who had any clue where I attended school, anyway, right?)

No, it's about respect. Respect for our heritage and history. It's about a proper appreciation for our Founding Father's achievments and contributions to the world, for liberty.
