6th Grade Assignment: Compare Bush and Hitler

Wow. And the school district says it was "a mistake". Uh huh. Misreading your answer sheet and accidentally marking a student wrong is a mistake. Sitting down and coming up with a full assignment is not a "mistake". It's a calculation.

Ummm, One rounded up and murdered millions of people he considered "Sub-human".


The other was freely elected twice and liberated (for a time) two countries that had brutal and repressive dictators.


My Venn diagram comes no where near close in overlapping.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

She's said she is sorry.

She has no notion of how accurate that statement is.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

One was less damaging to freedom than Obama.  The other was a US president.  What do I win?

I'm picturing the media outcry if a teacher had their kids do this with Obama and Mao...  :rofl:
