I can’t figure out why Schoolhouse Rock is supposed to be shameful. Those cartoons remain an outstanding canon of learning.

SchoolHouse Rock was an entertaining and effective educational tool.

Sounds like an ivory tower comment fell flat. Backfired, in fact.

Naughty Number 9 and, of course, I’m just as Bill.

Classics and should be used today.

My kids and grandkids grew up on Schoolhouse Rock....and for myself I still like Jack Shelton’s “I’m Just A Bill” and play it from time to time........(but don’t tell anyone, lest they take me away)........:)

Taught JHS History for 37 years. Always loved Schoolhouse Rock. Would show vhs tapes I would record to the kids, many of whom were immigrants. Found it effective and fun. The Star Wars bar scene that is the Democrat clown car ought to be forced to view the whole of Schoolhouse Rock History and Civics episodes. They might, just might, learn something.

A good number of “Schoolhouse Rock” type characters would be— screened from boot camps-— right into Spec Ops, and the brightest ones, creative... to SEALS. Not this f’n Univ. of S. Florida (St. Pete Scientology center of the World) desk jocky perfumed... boatswain mate at best Navy PR officer.

too many-— microphones with this clown, and clearly a career suck (up) REMF. McRaven and him vs. McChrystal whom obmaumao actually feared.

A lot of what schoolhouse rock teaches the socialists don’t want us to know.

Any former admiral that has an issue with Trump’s speech is telling us he is politically socialist. There was nothing in that speech that a normal person would find issue with. There were many things that would trigger a socialist.
