The left is just another step closer to the fringe.

This was on the Fox News website. I thought it was a reprint from the Onion. This is PC gone amuck.

I guess they think our children are too stupid to learn from mistakes made in history. So which group is offended by the words "swamp" and "jungle"?

If it does show up there I want to see their reaction to it. I'd love to see how anyone could possibly defend this action.

I believe alot of this will die with the 60s generation. Since they totally ignored all history and believe the earth was essentially created the day they were born, future generations will not take them or their beliefs seriously.

Oh, they will. Believe me, they will. They are all part of the thought police over there.

I'd love to see how anyone could possibly defend this action. Come on. Without even trying hard you could come up with at least 10 defences for this from the left.

By the way, this is why many people homeschool. 10 years ago I saw problems like this in my sons' textbooks. Many homeschoolers I know specifically use texts, especially history texts, that were printed many years ago.
For early American history I use one from the 1880's. Far superior and uncensored, even though politically incorrect. And one of the best text's I ever saw was a civics text from the 1920's. It had a picture of a staircase with steps such as temperance, civility, responsibility leading up to the top which said, "Good Citizen".

I wonder if old "Suzie" would like to take a walk down memory lane in my old neighborhood (Newark NJ) and maybe come up with some new names for "Ghetto" and "Slum". When I was in high school I read that a rose by any other name is
still a rose. And so is a hot dog, an indian, senior citizen, swamp, jungle, crap, and FOOL. Get my drift Suzie old girly. What BULLS**T!!!!!!!!!!

Sending your children to government schools borders on child abuse in some states.

As a blue-eyed blonde, perhaps I should be offended by the huge granite carving of Crazy Horse, the great American Indian.........ooops! Native American Chief that is being carved 20 miles down the road from me! Enough of this P.C. nonsense!
To: kattracks
Maybe they should concentrate on finding and fixing the many and varied errors and omissions in these textbooks. Guess they're too busy censoring them.

Certainly not the Dimocrats who translate it to "quagmire".

Get this. The Joint Commision of Hospital Oversight has just ruled that providers (this is doctors, and nurses to you folks) can no long write "Patient refused" in their notes becasue it is tooooo....ummmmm....NEGATIVE. Instead, providers have been instructed to write: "Patient DECLINED."
We wouldn't want to be TOOO NEGATIVE? WOULD WE???
