A lot of people don’t know how much adult illiteracy there has been and probably still is, in this country.

Just ten years ago, a friend of mine had a middle-aged neighbor who couldn’t read.

WOW what a long life.

Too bad she wasn’t able to teach literacy to W.

Like how to not betray your conservative base and not buddy-up with Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.
