This is a pretty pathetic attempt by FOX to get the base all riled up yet again. Guess they have to have something new to go on about now that they've been kicked out of the White House.

Most conservatives, being much more ecnomically rational than liberals, say no thanks to that. And they figure that it's much easier to get elected to the state legistlature and pass all kinds of bogus laws and dubious requirements to drive the poor, dumb, liberal proffies crazy...

It is astounding to hear these things, but it seems to be a part of a new Right wing project to control humanities education (Arizona, Georgia, etc).
