Disturbing, but not surprising, story from Horowitz’s blog about what passes for ’enlightened’ education in Brookline, MA., edited for brevity.
Snip:
"As for indoctrination, the students of the public schools in my town are lectured almost daily about the blunders of George Bush and the social studies course is more of a Bush bashing one (e.g., a question: "What would a Taoist think of Bush?"). In the beginning of the school year we were asked who the president of the United States was and part of the class believed it was Al Gore, they were then brainwashed to jeer whenever the name George Bush is mentioned." |
