Oh? And it’s most particularly in the crapper in states such as North Dakota, Republican strongholds? Or is perhaps education worse in the cities that Democrats have ruled since before the beginning of time?

Who brought us “whole word” reading? California Democrats. Who brought us New Math, with its “progressive” emphasis on concepts, to the exclusion of any knowledge of basic facts such as the times table? Who brought us teachers unions, and with it, the impossibility of dismissing even teachers with no knack for teaching and little enthusiasm for it?

Just because Republicans are responsible for the gutting of biology instruction in many public school systems is no reason to let the democrats off the hook for having made a mess of the teaching of reading, writing, and arithmetic. Without these, no true understanding of evolution is possible in any case.

hahaha here we go with the teacher’s unions, here’ll I’ll just rewrite your post for you:
