I'm going to vent now. I'm not going to take the time to link, but I have links if anyone needs them. I am totally pissed off that the "powers that be" are in the tank for one candidate, rather than being impartial as they are supposed to be. We do not live in Russia, Communist China or North Korea, nor any of the repressive Muslim countries, yet one side of the campaign is continuously shouted down and blocked from getting their message out. Young people, who have no real knowledge of history, are trying to convince their elders that they should vote for Hope! Change! for the greater good. College kids are going to Florida to convince their grandparents, and insinuating there would be no more visits unless they comply. The press and television networks are continuously promoting the liberal agenda, and pushing the "bad conservative" notions. Violence is cropping up all over the country, on both sides unfortunately, but only one side is being shown. ACORN is finally getting noticed for their despicable deeds, yet nothing up till now has been done by their benefactor to stop their activities, nor will there be.

Look, a large number of eligible voters this year are under 40 years of age. They have no memory of the Cold War, Vietnam, the Carter years, gas lines and rationing, double-digit inflation, etc. They are being taught history with textbooks that promote John Kerry's version of the Vietnam soldier. This year, students in junior high school are being taught from a literature textbook that has 15 (!) pages on Barack Obama and his "career". Puh-leeze! These kids don't know what it was like, and expect this time around it will be peaches and cream. They are so wrong. If Obama's plans are put into effect, we will be very similar to pre-World War II Europe in political stance, Israel will lose a strong ally (and so will we), and justice will be flushed down the toilet. Teach your children. You are running out of time.

Venting is over for now. Back to work.

What school? What are the names of these textbooks? This is VERY hard to believe without any facts.
 
The information on the 8th grade literature textbook can be found here. The history book to which I refer was the textbook used in the World History class I just completed in college. Davidson, J. (Ed.). (2006). Nation of nations: A concise narrative of the American republic (4th
ed., Vol. 2). New York: McGraw-Hill.

Thank you for your visit. You are free to believe me or not. I haven't lied to anyone since I was 17 years old. I'm too old to start now.
