      <![CDATA[This just proves that the Tea Party really is a fascist and  a racist organization, just like the NAACP said it was. Fortunately, they seem too stupid to really put forth a legislative agenda to threaten peoples of color, youth, or workers like the Ku Klux Klan of the 1920's.

And CHG, my public school kids score very well on standardized tests; your assertions about home-schooled kids apply to ANY kids of dedicated, education-focused parents of above average means.<br>

      <![CDATA[@CHG - I mean, if we're just going to point to random instances statesmen who lived during the Revolution and the drafting of the Constitution invoking God, I promise you I can find just as many questioning, or outright criticizing religion and/or Christ's divinity.<br>

Simple question: how many times does the word "Jesus" appear in the Constitution? How about "Christianity"?<br>

      <![CDATA[CHG, Jeff's point is that, since you're apparently too dense to get it, why do a bunch of people who home-school and therefore can teach their kids whatever baloney they want about US history so adamant about making the rest of us (like myself who has 3 kids in SCS) adhere to their hagiographical hero-worship? Theirs (and yours apparently) is an immature reading of history, one-sided and purposely leaves out anything but that which glorifies those people and events they admire.

      <![CDATA[Bruce, I like the Democratic Gaffes from the likes of Biden, Reid, et al.  Did you not have access to those? Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) had described Barack Obama as “light skinned” and “with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.” It’s strange how the left side of the political aisle constantly makes the racial faux pas, yet they like to play the race card against the right.

      <![CDATA[Pack, in the spirit of your first comment, there was a bunch of riffing on Twitter last night under the #TeaPartyHistory category. Some were pretty good:<br>
<br>
Hawaii has yet to show a Certificate of Statehood.<br>
<br>
John Adams and Millard Fillmore both got perfect SAT scores.<br>
<br>
Our Founding Fathers hated healthcare, preferring instead to die young, naturally.<br>
<br>
The frontiersmen did not kill Native Americans.

      <![CDATA[CHG, actually in the war of words, the SOUTH won the Civil War with its propaganda machine up until relatively recent times, when people began to question the myths and lies our pioneer forefathers fed us. Witness, the popularity of Birth of a Nation, which colored (no pun intended) attitudes towards the "Lost Cause" and the nobility of the Southern side.

Can you tell me which writers of our American history are correct and unbiased? Since the North won the War Between the States, they dictated the material in most history texts with the unconstitutional Dept. of Education.
