indoctrination..

yeah, no bias here... we are on a very slippery slope here, and the potential outcome is horrifying.

8th grade textbook has Barack Obama chapter in Racine, Wis.


FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
MADISON, Wis. — The Wisconsin Republican Party is complaining about the Racine School District’s use of an eighth grade textbook that includes a chapter on Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

A parent complained about a book that includes a chapter on Obama called ‘‘Dreams from My Father.’’ The book does not contain a section on Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

The school district says it is reviewing its policies regarding the use of the book in a literature class. The district began using the book last school year and says it is widely used nationwide.

The district says it has received no complaints about the book. The parent’s complaint was first reported on an Internet blog.
