I usually watch about a holf hour of Fox News in the morning. They have been doing a series on primary school textbooks and the treatment of history in them. It is shocking!! Yesterday's was the most insuting of the ones I have seen so far. They highlighted the section on the end of the Cold War. This book NEVER EVEN MENTIONED REAGAN. It had a blurb about Colin Powell's role in the end of the Cold War though. What a joke. How do these folks get these lies published?

So far the consensus is if you want to know how your childs history book treats history, just look for the section on Reagan. The left HATES Ronald Reagan and refuses to give him credit for anything. If you have kids in school and aren't reading their history books for yourself, you are doing your child a grave disservice by allowing them to go to the indoctranation center every day without challenging the status quo.
