VIDEO CLIPS INCLUDED: Philosophical Conservatives, Christian Conservatives, & Republican Leaders Appear To Be No Match For Frailey’s “Center Of Truth” Prowess: Will They Join This Philosophical Debate? Or, Will They Surrender?

Republicans and Democrats along with conservatives and liberals in this community can disagree on whether or not Katy I.S.D. should approve a $451 million bond issue. Bond issues are about money and about an evaluation of the efficiency of government that wants to spend it.
However, Alton Frailey’s administrative occupation and proclamation about his “Center of Truth” is about the role of government - any government - in our society. Now one week away from his actual remarks, I am left wondering: where are all the philosophical and Christian conservatives are in this community? I am left wondering if the Republican precinct chairs have learned the lesson of their party’s failures and compromises that resulted in the empowering of the single most radical, liberal agenda in the history of this country at the national level. Do conservatives in leadership ever learn anything? Do conservatives enjoy talking the talk but are fearful of walking the walk?
Are the so-called Republican conservatives in this community actually going to depend upon the upstart Katy Tea Party to carry the burden of this fight? Are Republican conservatives just going to sit on the sidelines and let “Center of Truth” proclamations from a government bureaucrat go unchallenged except on this website and by a handful of others?
Where are our community’s so-called conservatives? Where are the leaders? Where are the rank and file conservatives? Is it reasonable to expect that perhaps a preacher or two or three might have a sermon in the next couple of weeks with this general title: “Center of Truth on Anything and Everything Under the Sun: Government or God?”
Much to the consternation of Frailey and his “Center of Truth” acolytes among his central administration ‘truthers,’ this column includes edited remarks from his convocation speech Tuesday, August 17. Go to “Center of Truth’s” website at Center of Truth and see Frailey’s remarks in full splendor. We are weeks from finishing out presenting his remarks. I am asking him to keep his full video up at the district’s website so the full context of any editing is readily available.
However, perhaps the conservatives of this community would be helped by starting here with these clips. The first thing we all need to understand is the public education is very complicated. It is very difficult for those of us who ‘top out mentally’ with mere mortal ability of understanding to know all we need to know to put this in context. Here’s the first clip from the “Center of Truth.”
Let’s not forget that Frailey’s “Center of Truth” has a keen understanding of your children, perhaps better than your. It appears they may be telling him things they are fearful of telling you. You are the parents. But, his administration is the “Center of Truth.” He knows, for instance, that one of the biggest concerns of high school students in Katy is the rhetoric, divisiveness, and cynicism of their parents. He knows that they want us to all come together as one on the major issues of the community. Frailey’s “Center of Truth” is very intuitively connected to your children. Here are his own words.
This helps put the need for the “Center of Truth” in context.
As the “Center of Truth” notes, Jeffersonian democracy depends upon the public having the disciplined information it needs to make decisions. And once again, the “Center of Truth” is concerned about what it knows about the attitude of your children. It knows that a high quality of mass public education is needed to blast through the noise of dissidents. The following clips contains the second reference to the “Center of Truth’s” communication and understanding of your children’s inner-most thoughts regarding you.
Only with the presence of the “Center of Truth” can the people be protected from the village idiots. After all, the “Center of Truth” is the guardian of liberty. Yes. The “Center of Truth” is the guardian of liberty, and in Katy I.S.D. that burden rests upon the shoulder of the Commander in Chief of the Center of Truth - Alton Frailey.
Remember that old song: “Where have all the conservatives gone, long time ago…Gone to sleep everyone.”
I genuinely hope not.
Again, honest people can disagree about a bond issue. However, should any government bureaucrat ever skate free who stands up and says government - any government at any level under any circumstances - is the “Center of Truth” on anything.
Is there anything these people can say or do that will break through the conservative malaise? I guess we’ll find out.
Your homework: “Center of Truth: Any Government Anywhere or God?” Discuss. And once again, memorize these lyrics:
“Where have all the conservatives gone, long time ago. Gone to sleep everyone???????
First, the United States is not a Democracy. The new social studies standards have been corrected to accurately indicated the work of the Founders. The United States is a Representative Republic. We need to make sure that our students, teachers and Superintendent know the difference. To be a “Center of Truth” you must know and speak the truth.
Second, “It Take a Village” is a progressive book that was written by Hillary Clinton (really Lizzie Boyer a ghost writer) and would have people believe that the collective - part of the progressive/socialist ideology - is more important than the individual.
Third, the reference to Village Idiots is aloof and condescending to those experts who have posts on the web and communicate via e-mail. It smacks of censorship and is an attack on freedom of speech.
Finally, one can not be the “Center of Truth” if they are not open and honest with information. They must be willing to, as our arithmetic teachers in school told us, show their work so we can see how they got to their decisions.
I am reminded of an old political axiom ( I have worked with local, state, and national politicians for decades) “Repeat something often enough and people will believe it to be True.”
Every American is the Guardian of Liberty. It cannot and should no be claimed by on person or a group of people. Our founders knew this lesson well The Superintendent quoted the Great Thomas Jefferson people cannot be ignorant and free. The “Gatekeepers” of information can keep people ignorant therefore enslaving them to ignorance. We as taxpayers should not have to demand that KISD open the gates of their information so that we may all be informed about this bond issue and not be enslaved to a slick public relations campaign which attempts to stir up emotions of various groups without allowing each group access to the same information.
