It’s nice to know that historians – particularly those in Texas – are lining up against the Texas state “reforms” that teach stuff like slavery wasn’t so bad and Joe McCarthy was a nice guy or whatever lies they are selling.
Plus, another view supporting California’s move to reject any textbook that is printed that includes the Texas lies.
Seriously, people in general are pretty stupid. Willingfully lying to children because you are bigoted and hate others is just cruel. Our children are supposed to be *better* than us, not force fed bullshit that doesn’t reflect reality.
I’m posting this link concerning Rand Paul chickening out of being on “Meet the Press” for the following reason:
“Throughout its history, she said, only two guests have canceled: Louis Farrakhan and Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia.”
That’s good company for the Tea Bagging Libertarian.
That said, it’s probably good for his people to tell him to start shutting the hell up. In the past week, we have learned that Paul (probably both of them) are cool with people being racist as long as they don’t beat on people.
Also, disabled folks should just suck it up and not worry about businesses providing access to them.
Oh yeah, President Obama is apparently a racist tyrant for telling British Petroleum they’re responsible for dumping millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico (and beyond). Government should just shut up and let companies destroy nature willy nilly according to this guy and folks who agree with his philosophy.
In short, the more we allow Tea Party Treasonous Bigots to speak, the worse they sound.
