Doonesbury Say What?

"We are a Christian nation founded on Christian principles. The way I evaluate history textbooks is first I see how they cover Christianity and Israel. Then I see how they treat Ronald Reagan -- he needs to get credit for saving the world from communism and for the good economy over the last 20 years because he lowered taxes."
-- Dr. Don McLeroy, chairman of the Texas Board of Education, which recently approved a controversial new school curriculum

Rational much?

At least he's not coming back. (I think he's not coming back.) Doesn't mean Texas is clear of stupid religious nutjobs like him, just that there's one less.

As for his criteria, perhaps only Reagan is relevant to the U.S. History curriculum, which is what the textbooks are for, right?
