Texas School Book Controversy

Have you seen what's going on in Texas?  The right wing lunatics have decided to rewrite school history books with a far right wing slant.  The new version will have a greater focus on the Biblical and Christian traditions of the founding fathers. It also calls for the teaching of free market principals, how government taxation and regulation can serve as restrictions to private enterprise, and emphasizes the achievements of Republican leaders, including former President Ronald Reagan and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.  What it will not do is give a voice to any opposing view points. What happened to teaching both sides of an issue?  This is what happens when only a small percentage of people actually vote (those who are the most active and engaged).  Get out and vote people!
