Celebrating Culture and Accomplishments!

Hispanics Contributions to America's Defense: We Salute You!

We honor the men and women who have served in the American armed forces and paid the ultimate price for their loyalty and dedication. Each ethnic group that makes up this mosaic we call America has contributed its part over the last two centuries, and, according to the Defense Department publication, Hispanics in America's Defense, "when our country has been in need, Hispanic Americans have had more than their share of stouthearted, indomitable men. Their intrepid actions have been in the highest tradition - a credit to themselves, their ancestry, and our nation." Until recent decades, the Hispanic population of the United States has been quite small. Nevertheless, from the American Revolution to Desert Storm, Hispanic Americans have risked their lives to defend the United States and the principles upon which it stands.

Children and Political Propaganda

Throughout history, political propaganda often has taken a 'get 'em while they're young' approach. From the daisy nuclear countdown to 'Mickey Mouse' promoting suicide bombings, FOXNews.com looks at political propaganda featuring or targeting kids.

Mm, mmm, mm! Barack Hussein Obama...



Mm,mmm,mm! I'm so not 'cool' with this! If religion doesn't belong in school, neither do partisan politics!

Happy Reading!

Huh...You Want To 'Tax' Me for Living?

Hmm, the ol' car insurance analogy. Can someone get the President the memo stressing the fact that our bodies are NOT a commodity unlike a car! NO to Obamacare!

The only people who are still trying to defend Obama are people who are in so deep they can't see what's going on =(

RNC Statement on President Obama's Economic Speech in New York

WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement today:

“For the average American, the best measure of the economy is whether or not they have a job so they can pay the mortgage, make the car payment and put food on the table. For more than 3 million Americans who have lost their jobs this year, the president’s policies have been a failure. His $787 billion stimulus bill has led to wasteful spending and hasn’t created the jobs he promised. And every time he has wanted to expand the government’s influence over the economy and our daily lives, from his takeover of GM and banks to his proposed government-run takeover of our health care, it has meant spending more money we don’t have and digging America deeper into debt. Those are the real results of the president’s experiments on our economy, and no amount of speeches will convince the American people otherwise.”

Happy Labor Day...Relax!

Labor Day History:

As the
Industrial Revolution took hold of the nation, the average American in the late 1800s worked 12-hour days, seven days a week in order to make a basic living. Children were also working, as they provided cheap labor to employers and laws against child labor were not strongly enforced. With the long hours and terrible working conditions, American unions became more prominent and voiced their demands for a better way of life.

On Tuesday September 5, 1882, 10,000 workers marched from city hall to Union Square in New York City, holding the first-ever Labor Day parade. Participants took an upaid day-off to honor the workers of America, as well as vocalize issues they had with employers. As years passed, more states began to hold these parades, but Congress would not legalize the holiday until 12 years later. On May 11, 1894, workers of the Pullman Palace Car Company in Chicago struck to protest wage cuts and the firing of union representatives. They sought support from their union led by Eugene V. Debs and on June 26 the American Railroad Union called a boycott of all Pullman railway cars. Within days, 50,000 rail workers complied and railroad traffic out of Chicago came to a halt. On July 4, President Grover Cleveland dispatched troops to Chicago. Much rioting and bloodshed ensued, but the government's actions broke the strike and the boycott soon collapsed. Eugene Debs and three other union officials were jailed for disobeying the injunction. The strike brought worker's rights to the public eye and Congress declared, in 1894, that the first Monday in September would be the holiday for workers, known as Labor Day.

The founder of Labor Day remains unclear, but some credit either Peter McGuire, co-founder of the American Federation of Labor, or Matthew Maguire, a secretary of the Central Labor Union, for proposing the holiday.
Although Labor Day is meant as a celebration of the labor movement and its achievements, it has come to be celebrated as the last, long summer weekend before Autumn.

It sounds innocent enough: lesson plans outlining how students can learn more about the presidency — only THIS lesson plan comes from the White House, and it's calling on schools to teach kids more about Obama.

A suggested lesson plan that calls on students to write letters to themselves about what they can do to help President Obama, following his address to students nationwide, is troubling and establishes the president as a "superintendent in chief," education experts told FOXNews.com
