I don't see how we can educate our youngsters when the schools are run by morons. The lady who publishes our little bi-weekly paper wrote a book about it: "We're Driving Our Kids Crazy!" amazon.com

The subtext in her book bothered the school system so much they finally pulled their insert supplement from the paper, and now the paper is financially in danger.
