When Did Our Country Jump The Tracks??

                                 
  Hello America Matters. Forgive us for the delay in our long over due post. This next post comes from a long time America Matters reader and contributor. Our own Wayne McIntyre.  Let's let our brother Wayne get some things off of his chest shall we? 
 
 Today we have  a California high school student suspended because she stopped an out of control school bus. Amanda Rouse 15 "hitched " a ride with an elementary school bus driver because she wasn't feeling well. When the driver fell out of her seat on a curve and hit her head Amanda jumped into the drivers  seat and applied the brakes and brought the bus to a safe stop. She is suspended?
Here Is The Story.....

  Last week an honor student was suspended  and stripped of his vice presidency of student body for buying ...........ready.............Candy from a class mate. He is a 4.0 GPA student. The three day suspension was lifted after the school was hammered in the press and on T.V.    I cite these two cases because I don't like the message that is getting out to our young folks.

  Teachers having sex with minors and some of them——the pretty ones —-don't do a day behind bars.  What are the kids role models? Presidents that lie and suborn perjury......Is it gangsta rap that should be a role model ? How about TV shows with such outstanding themes as "LA INK " where what were once attractive women have marred and disfigured their bods with piercings that had to hurt and  tats that are WAY over board. Where have the heroes gone? Ronald Reagan ,John Wayne and yes even the three Stooges. At least the Stooges were complete unmitigated fun. We have lost our way folks. Not... thank God in middle America ,but an amazing amount of today's culture has simply jumped the tracks. Sad to say but true. What's the answer ? I do not know do you?

 Thanks Wayne... Your thoughts and views most certainly matter.... So do your's America Matters.....

Thx LT.........
