Even the text books are biased. My daughter's AP history book had the Bay of Pigs fiasco as happening during the Eisenhower administration. No mention of Kennedy at all.
I read a good part of that textbook. It's a good thing I was alive during most of the so called 'facts' they were presenting.

Chiming in here..a new social studies book in our high school states that the UN should take control over the Internet to insure accuracy of information, among other things. It goes on for about two pages on how this is a good thing.

Hello,
When I was in Jr. High, my "history" book stated that WWII was won by the UN. I kid you not. My dad was livid!!
Glad to be here, MOgirl
