#3 It bizarrely blames the evils of television for learning ways "to be black" that are hilariously caricatured, stereotypical and negative.

Would Crystal Mangum of Duke lacrosse rape fame, be a more accurate example ?

#4 Relax dudes. Kids know that most of what they're taught in school is bull.

#5 Crystal Mangum lied, and unlike our President was caught and punished.

#6 Crystal Magnum wasn't 'punished' for ruining the lives of those 4 innocent lacrosse players - she got off scott free for that. She was later convicted for 2nd degree murder of her 'boyfriend'.
Personally I think she (along with Nifong, Racist Jesse Jackson and Racist Al Sharpton) should have been forced to serve the time for 4 rape charges - consecutively.

#7 To be entirely accurate in the protrayal of Brak, Jane had somebody else wright her book, then ate a dog.

There is a lot wrong with the common corpse method. Mathematics is horrible, forcusing on rote memorization. If I can try to explain, the traditional count fingers method of 3 + 2 would have three items, in this case fingers, combined with a group of two, to make 5. What they are being taught is to see 3 + 2 and just say 5. Seeing 2 + 3 is a seperate thing to memorize rather than seeing the question and thinking, "Oh, same question just different order."

I expect to see interest, participation, and success in Algebra to suffer tremendously. Imagine a generation unable to figure how to get the most tacos (A) and burritos (B) with (<=) $20 (C) without resorting to a computer.

#8 My wife teaches K and is being forced (along with her peers) kicking and screaming into using this $hit. I read her one of the problems going the rounds yesterday and she recognized it after 4 words. Then she explained it to me......

They are NOT allowed to teach kids how to count anymore!! Everything is groups of 5 or ten and these are kids that can't do 2+1 = 3 or 3+1 = 4.

The book shown, the one she's got, is the cheap one and not even understandable for the teachers it's such crap. She figures that the teachers will revert to their own methods next year after the Trolls stop looking over their shoulders.
