Public School Summer Reading List...Baldwin County, AL
'What's wrong with it?', critical thinking impaired righties will ask.
And the answer lies in the 'duh' behind the question. LOL!
4. What (alleged) class is this for?
Remedial Ranting Crank?
FOX News Pundit Prep?
6. The list has been pulled, but they ought to fire the teacher's sorry ass.
This GOP troll has no business using a public school classroom as a forced indoctrination camp. "Pulling the list" is not sufficient. If I were a parent, I would be incensed.

"Concerns from local residents have led to a summer reading list for a Spanish Fort High School AP Government/Economics being pulled.
Spanish Fort High teacher Gene Ponder’s summer reading list for his class included a number of texts from a majority of conservative and right-leaning authors including Ann Coulter, Michael Savage, Ron Paul, Thomas Sowell, Chuck Colson and Ronald Reagan.
..........
Ponder had previously been a Republican candidate for Alabama’s lieutenant governorship back in 2010.
Posts shared on social media on June 21 questioned if the Baldwin County School System had endorsed the reading list and the perceived lack of diversity of ideas, as well as whether it met the reading levels required for a 12th grade AP class.
.......
“As the school board rep for the SF area, I saw a concern and addressed it with the Superintendent,” Cauley wrote in a Facebook post. “As a courtesy, the school principal called to let me know that the list had been removed and assignment cancelled. He'll be sending an email to all Senior students/parents to notify them that there will be no summer reading assignment for this AP government class.”
.........
“Mr. Ponder’s reading list that is going around on social media has not been endorsed by the school system,” Tyler wrote. “The list has been removed by the teacher. Baldwin County Public Schools has a process to vet and approve reading lists so that a variety of sources are used. I expect all employees to follow our processes, procedures and policies.”
28. I'm calling "Bullshit!"...
Such a wild, "Are-you-effing-kidding-me" crackpot of a list - and no link? I called "Bullshit!" and looked around for proof.
Well, whaddya know: http://www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-worl...40954.html
