yes, this is a fox news link, and there is a special being aired friday night, so im going to watch, just thought i would let anyone who likes fox news know, lol! http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/09/03/tucker-carlson-textbooks/?test=latestnews
My husband was telling me that yesterday. We have plans on watching it as well. But hey Home schoolers in general have been saying this stuff for years. It is just odd to me that it is now coming out in the open. They will be airing it again Sunday Sept 6th at 1 a.m., 3 and 9 p.m. and 2 a.m. ET.
Interesting to say the least Did anyone else get a chance to watch this? I found this to be a rather interesting program. It definently shed a light on things for me. I had no idea what all went into choosing a curriculum for the public schools. I didn't know that it was a statewide choice, I thought each district had a choice as to what books they could use. And the whole LGBT (lesbian, gay, bi, transgender) thing........:shock: I'm sorry, but I will continue to call a mailMAN a mailMAN, and a fireMAN a fireMAN, a waitor or waitress, just that..........not a WAITRON ! Sheesh, enough already! Another reason I'm thankful God led me to homeschooling:angel:
I didn't get to see the program, but I think you might find this interesting: A classmate recently recieved a demotion at work for saying, "Enjoy the movie, Ma'am." Apparently, it's horribly rude to call a woman "ma'am." Someone better tell the military.
yes, and the word man is just as bad, lol!! policeman, fireman,etc, you just cant assume they are male anymore!
I caught that during a bout of insomnia over the weekend. Really good--totally worth watching for homeschoolers, even if you're not a Fox News fan. What made me laugh was when the one woman said that you're not allowed to print in a textbook a picture of a woman cooking, because it's a stereotype. But you can show a picture of a woman using a jackhammer. :roll: So women who work on construction sites don't eat at home? O....kaaay.... The waitron thing was hilarious, too. All of it was just absurd.
