RE :” In what looks like an effort to justify injecting more religion into government, it voted to require students to examine why the founding fathers protected religious freedom — and how that approach contrasts with “separation of church and state.” The board also required third graders to “explain how government regulations and taxes impact consumer cost,” presumably to get them off to an early start in fearing government. Older students will have to “evaluate efforts by global organizations to undermine U.S. sovereignty” and, under an earlier change, analyze the “unintended consequences” of such programs as the Great Society and affirmative action.

NYTimes is upset kids will be learning this with ‘our tax dollars’ when they should be learning proved science like : global warming, sensitivity training, America's racist history, recycling to save the planet, how we all were illegal aliens once, that the founders broke away from Europe to be atheists and how it's government that creates jobs while capitalism just benefits the rich.

You are joking, but the truth is, this is very close to what the NYT wants.

So hilariously ironic. Liberals have long filled textbooks with propaganda.

To go off on a tangent I'm remembering an "educational" cartoon called "Histeria" that was on when I was a kid (okay I was 15 but still watched cartoons after school).

They had an upbeat musical number about how the heroic Bolsheviks arrested the mean old Tsar and locked him up. No mention of when they later murdered him, his wife, his children, and his dog. In addition to watching cartoons I also read Human Events and National Review. I quit watching the cartoon which was cancelled after not too long.
