Also, I just read the NYT article about the tea baggers putting the wrong address on a website. It also pointed out that the pic you posted had gun targets posted on the districts. Interesting commentary. How can people argue that the conservatives are getting a bad rap? Ugh.
I'm apparently numb and missed it. The use of the founding fathers was extra annoying after spending some time in DC reflecting on our history. I thought multiple times that many of these people would roll over in their graves if they knew of the things people say in their names.
Totally. And of course these fine patriots only love the founding fathers that they agree with. According to Texas, Jefferson can go to hell. That, coupled with what I've read recently about how Texas textbook decisions impact the textbook decisions in the entire country, makes me grit my teeth for the job we're going to have to do to make sure our kid is actually educated.
Yeah, I know. The fact that Texas can influence what the rest of the country learns is a scary realization indeed. Man, the whole thing is incredibly frustrating. This is why I can't live in DC. I'm already saturated in it. It would be worse if I lived there!
