nobody will be left dumb enough to be a Republican
"...is the Republican Party afraid that if we educate our schoolchildren, then nobody will be left dumb enough to be a Republican. There, I’ve said it. I just wonder if these people have no shame. Our State School Board member representative, Republican Cynthia Dunbar, who home schools her own children even says, “such an address has the potential to open the door to students accepting an unconstitutional level of direct accountability to National Governing Authorities” (her capitals).
My family disagrees with me, but I think it’s also a black thing. There is no rational thought involved. They don’t just hate him because he is a Democrat, like my daughter says. I think they particularly hate him because he is black. I don’t remember this big a fit being thrown over Bill Clinton. Sure he was criticized. But the right wing lunatic fringe didn’t high jack everything he did. I have one thing to say. Yes, he is black. Yes, he won. He will be the president and running things for the next 3, possibly 7, years. Get over it.
