Libby's indoctrinating school children via Algebra!
« on: January 10, 2013, 08:04:26 AM »
Fox News host Eric Bolling on Wednesday accused some schools of “pushing the liberal agenda” for teaching an algebra lesson about the distributive property.
During a segment about “indoctrination in schools,” Bolling reminded viewers of a 2009 video of children chanting, “Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Barack Hussein Obama,” which outraged conservatives at the time.
“But even worse is the way some textbooks are pushing the liberal agenda,” the Fox News host explained, pointing to an algebra worksheet that Scholastic says gives students “nsight into the distributive property as it applies to multiplication.”
“Distribute the wealth!” Bolling exclaimed, reading the worksheet. “Distribute the wealth with the lovely rich girl with a big ole bag of money, handing some money out.”
Co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle explained that the algebra worksheet had put her on “high alert” for the liberal agenda in her 6-year-old son’s curriculum.

Boy, her kid must really be gifted to be learning algebra in the first grade. This type of reporting makes McCarthyism look liberal.

By and large anything beyond simple algebra is garbage, and just another means by which colleges and universities use to steal more money from thier students. Any math problem that results in an answer that contains a variable is pretty much a waste of time. I just finished an algebra course for my degree that the University deemed "absolutley critical to adminstering  medication" I have previous experience adminstering IV medication and I have never encountered a situation where I had to give someone a dose of 0.05XY squared milligrams of atropine.
Hi NSA! Can you see how many fingers I am holding up?

Anything could be made to look like a hidden agenda. EX. .  Snow White and the 7 dwarfs promotes promiscuity. And the worst one of all ---Ruba dub dub , 3 men in a tube = this definitely promotes homosexuality.
