You hit the target with accuracy and precision.

Debating liberals or the fruits of their brainwashing efforts in public schools is the equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel. They are so ignorant of the facts beyond their canned soundbites and bumpersticker phrases that one factual retort totally deflates them, resulting, of course, in the usual last resort of the liberal: name calling.

I guess we can be thankful that the liberal teacher squads are so pathetically poor at their task. At least insofar as their brainwashing efforts are concerned.

One wonders how many of those so-called protesters were really out simply to skip a class.....

You are right but you forget the kids in school believe everything they are told. Everything. In my Geometry class one day I did a long proof on the board. Early in the proof I divided a quantity by zero, But the kids did not "catch" my "mistake". As the proof went on and on we ended up proving that Lines could have "negative" length, That 2= 1, and other things that were equally ridiculous. The students became uncomfortable late in the period and finally one got brave enough to protest, "But thats wrong, Isn't it?" So I told them.

As they left the class they criticised me for my un truths, while the point was for them to question authority when they think it makes sense. This was admittedly from my generation, but the question is why don't they question their teachers ideas?
