I think that is the real story. How one school book publisher has to cave to even the slightest pressure these days because politics have become so contentious and mean and invaded even the text book industry. Worse, is that a school district that has so many critical issues to deal with now has to take the time to review this instead of spending time on things like school safety or what to do with learning challenged children who are not being assisted at home.<BR/>The idea that a bi-racial person from a modest home, who spent time as a child in a foreign country, ended up orphaned and raised by his grandparents only to become one of the best known political figures of the US is pretty much the ideal story of the American dream come true. It should be in school books to inspire kids.<BR/><BR/>Now it's going to be left out because of one woman's complaint and the blogger who promoted her accusations? That is really bad.<BR/>Are we supposed to wait until we have the consent of every parent before a book can be used in public schools? If that were the case no one would have read Catcher in the Rye as well as many other American classics. If that were the case I would guess that there would be very few books in public schools. What are we going to do about school books that teach evolution? That teach about the uglier side of US history like how we treated the Native American population? <BR/>People, you should ask yourselves if you really want your schools cleansed of all books that offend anyone. There's a name for that and it's not freedom.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-55025763299661698912008-10-16T18:16:00.000-05:002008-10-16T18:16:00.000-05:00Fred, many might consider posting nude pictures of...Fred, many might consider posting nude pictures of one political enemy to be the cowardly act.

Therefore I submit that the implications of inclusion of the Obama section were well understood. <BR/><BR/>I see John Foust is on here tattle-tailing on what Fred is saying on his site. I guess John isn't getting enough attention at Real Debate. I don't know Fred very well but even if he didn't shout about George Bush being in the book he would certainly agree if someone else shouted. I promptly threw the McReynolds sign (that showed up in my yard unannounced) in the trash then went and voted for the guy. See how that works John?<BR/><BR/>Am I the only one who sees the coincidence in a big movie about the wonderful/tragic story of Ernie Davis, who succeeded against many odds, and a movie about George W. Bush which the trailer says is "based on a true story", both coming out a few weeks before this election? I wish Oliver Stone would do a movie based on my life -maybe he could make me successful, rich, and handsome.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-24932774478084514472008-10-16T13:31:00.000-05:002008-10-16T13:31:00.000-05:00Now Mark that wasn't very nice at all...I've never...Now Mark that wasn't very nice at all...<BR/><BR/>I've never said a cross word about what you do.

He's done a great job with the text book story and deserves credit for spreading it around the country.
