From the American Thinker, here's just one outrageous quote.

Teacher Jay Bennish: Who is probably the single most violent nation on planet Earth?!

Bennish: The United States of America!

By whose standards is the United States of America the single most violent nation on the planet Earth? This is brainwashing, pure and simple. Don't we condemn Saudi Arabia and Pakistan with their extreme madrasses for creating the culture of hatred that will take at least a generation to un-do?

The fine Mr. Bennish, teacher of our children I remind again, has been put on permanent leave. He should be fired. Immediately. Nothing in his hateful lecture had a thing to do with Geography, the subject Bennish was supposed to be teaching. Kudos to the kid, Sean Allen, who taped this nut.

You know what really makes me smile about this whole incident? From now on teachers across the country are going to have to wonder "Are these kids taping me?" An act which is, until the mighty teachers' unions stop it, perfectly legal. Maybe these propagandists and liars disguised as teachers will, heh, actually teach the subject if they consider that their words might be heard that evening by concerned parents.

A Funny Tidbit Were It Not So Pathetic

I've had this little tidbit in my in-box for quite a while. Seems the United Nations held a summit recently in New York. Seems one of the attendees spent quite a bit of dough while attending. Note the money amounts are in British pounds, which is almost half again in American dollars.

Bono should read this story. For if ever there was an indicator of how poorly these African nations are led, it is the following.

From the Times Online:

Congo leader's £169,000 hotel bill
Tony Allen-Mills, New York

The leader of one of Africa's poorest countries paid more than £100,000 in cash towards a £169,000 hotel bill run up by his entourage during last year's United Nations summit in New York, according to court documents obtained by The Sunday Times.

Aides to President Denis Sassou-Nguesso of the Republic of Congo startled staff at the Palace hotel on Madison Avenue by pulling out wads of $100 notes to settle a bill for 26 rooms.

Sassou-Nguesso, who is chairman of the African Union, representing all the continent's governments, is negotiating with the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to cancel many of his country's debts on the grounds that it cannot afford to repay them. Yet the president spent a week last September in the Palace hotel, one of Manhattan's most prestigious addresses.
