      Probably stuff they never learned before.



      aka: Revisionist History

      Which I believe Beck majored in at The University of I Don't Remember.

      Um, Glenn? You are aware that you will need at least one advanced college degree to teach high school students, right? And, that assumes you have anything worthwhile or useful to say to begin with. It's also best to have some expertise in the field that you are attempting to teach. You have proven ignorance of politics, law, religion, economics and history. That doesn't leave much, does it?

      If you want to find out what's going on with your kids, turn off your TV, and sit down and TALK with them. You know, like parents do.

      Most people have a choice to join the libertarian party, but it is apparent they don't for a reason, because most people are not! Indoctrination? That is what Beck is going to do now... he is going to push them into his beliefs...

      The reason why he will teach them stuff they never learned before is because Beck's variety of hocus pocus is not real education;.

      We took that test in high school civics mummmble, mummmble years ago. I was right smack dab in the middle of the road along with most of my classmates. The others in the class were about equally divided.

      The thing about this "program" that he's proposing is that he is attempting to indoctrinate these kids with his revisionist history. This man is getting more dangerous every day.

      Lonesome Rhodes Beck The Revisionist talking crazy. It is sad that some children are indoctrinated, not by Liberalism, but by Glenn Beck and their ilk. I've even had to put up with his crazy shtick for an 1/2 hour of the show babbling about the "Progressive Indoctrination" of schoolchildren. Further proof that Beck escaped the mental hospital.

          I listen to his show on and off in the mornings. I've never been water-boarded but I imagine that it must be something like hearing a couple of clowns out of the definition of Religious Right in the dictionary on the radio every morning.

      I am glad I am not a teenager anymore, because I would be insulted by this, of course. I am still insulted by it, but not as much as I would have been.

      Remember folks, if it's religious in nature, it's not indoctrination, unless you have brown skin.

      He should have said, "carefully screened teenagers," because that's what they'll be.

      Wha?? Most people in this country are LIBERTARIAN!

      So, I guess we'll all be moving to New Hampshire? That Nolan Chart test doesn't prove crap. It's awesome to see Beck work it out as he goes along. The more he "learns" the faster he is going down hill and off the edge. We've seen you before Beck, it's a matter of time.

      He needs to come where I work (no specifics) because students are subjected to conservative indoctrination here. We have students refusing to fill out surveys b/c they do not want to be subjected to unconstitutional mandates from Washington. I am not kidding!

      There's something oddly familiar about Glenn's schtick. I can't quite put my finger on it...

        The difference is, Glenn is not "meddling" with what Arthur Jensen called the primal forces of nature, at least not in the way that set Arthur off. I think Arthur would actually be very pleased with Glenn.

          Arthur became very pleased with Howard after he changed his tune after the speech Arthur gave him. In fact, even though his ratings tanked, Jensen insisted on keeping him on the air. Which led to Beale's assassination by the corporation ("I hope nobody has a recording device." to general laughter). The hit was fronted by the SLA clone in the film (much as Malcolm X's killing was). It's unfortunate that Fox is an arm of the Repubs or the same thing might happen to Beckerwood.

      God forbid you should let your children learn anything different in school. That's right, go fight the school to keep them from indoctrinating your child with a broader vision and tolerance! Send them to me so I can infect them with fear, hatred, intolerance, and contempt for their fellow man. Yee Haw!
