FOXNews

would have you believe that students and teachers in Jefferson County, CO, are demonstrating because they don't like the idea of,
'promoting citizenship, patriotism, essentials and benefits of the free-market system and respect for authority'
BUT, the real problem is because a small group of very well organized Tea Partiers took over a school board election, with very low turnout, and they're trying to re-write the curriculum. Their first act was to hold an illegal, late night closed door meeting, where they hired a lawyer, with school district money, to defend their illegal actions. They are now trying to remove 'less than ideal' parts of US history from the teaching material and are trying to teach that 'any kind' of civil disobedience is WRONG. In an unprecedented result, they received a ONE HUNDRED PERCENT vote of 'No Confidence' from the teacher's organization. That means they had ZERO support from the people they are trying to railroad. With a daughter who teaches in the district I know that this is going to be a long, nasty battle, as a small group of zealots are trying to force their will and beliefs on the majority. And SURPRISE, FOXNews is supporting them by 'changing the argument' to make the teachers and students look bad. As always, FOXFUXw/FAX, and this is a perfect example.
