Seems like there is an inexhaustible supply of these imparters of hard-Left hatred, doesn't it?:
A D.C. schoolteacher will apologize after assigning students homework that prompted them to compare Adolf Hitler and former President George W. Bush using a Venn diagram.
A parent of one of the sixth-grade students told NBC Washington that the assignment presented the teacher's opinions as fact, which is unethical. Others said it was insensitive to the millions of Jews murdered by Nazis during the Holocaust.
"I think trying to compare Adolf Hitler to an America president is just not right," one parent told the Washington Times. "I didn’t agree with Mr. Bush or his policies, but that was over the line."
Apparently not:
Images of the assignment, reportedly assigned during a "War and Peace" unit, were passed around on Twitter, and show that the McKinley Middle School teacher intended to form a deep connection in the students' minds between the two figures.
"Now that we have read about two men of power who abused their power in various ways, we will compare and contrast them and their actions. Please refer to your texts, "Fighting Hitler — A Holocaust Story" and "Bush: Iraq War Justified Despite No WMD" . . . We will use this in class tomorrow for an activity!" read the homework assignment.
No word on whether beheading a Bush mannequin was included in this classroom "activity," or whether it was to come before or after burning incense to the Obama idol in the corner and unfurling their prayer rugs, which has now taken the place of "recess".
As you have probably surmised, the D.C. Public schools were quick to disavow this latest tiresome leftwingnut slander:
"No DCPS curriculum materials suggest in any way that teachers should compare the texts in this manner or compare Hitler to any other individual. One text, 'Fighting Hitler — A Holocaust Story' is part of the current suggested materials. The text about President Bush is not suggested as part of the current year’s curriculum, but was included last year in a separate unit," read part of the statement.
"The teacher admits to extremely poor judgment and short sightedness and will apologize to students. The school will also send a letter home to families explaining the incident and offering to address any additional questions should they arise."
How is it that school administrators never seem to have any idea of the degree to which their teachers are polluting their classrooms with left-wing filth? And they never make these discoveries until one of these turds does a cannonball in their PR punchbowl?
You know how.
Kinda whets your appetite for Common Core, doesn't it?
