Stories like these out of Florida are a stark reminder that often the problem isn't bad teachers who should not have become educators. It is bad parents who should not have reproduced.

At what point, in Florida and elsewhere, do the witch trials begin and the burnings and dunkings take place for the school teachers and administrators who have been deemed non-compliant with the parental and legislative interpretations of what represents appropriate world art and culture?

This is a Nichols’ book come to life on expertise. I wonder what other specialties the board director thinks parents are more knowledgeable on than teaching. Medicine? Firefighting? Perhaps architecture?

You know, I always find the Soros charge amusing. Because it turns out only certain wealthy individuals should be barred from funding campaigns. Where is the outrage at the Koch’s and their project to bring about another constitutional convention? Where is the outrage at the Uihleins funding campaigns and rags like the Federalist? Oh wait, you mean to tell me it’s just anti-Semitism all the way down? Consider this my shocked face.
