Dr. Laura Update
I hate to devote two logs in two straight days to one wingnut. But the whacko conspiracy theory that Dr. Laura described on her talk radio show today is worthy of comment. She complained about an assignment given to seventh graders in a Michigan school that asked some prying questions. I agree with Schlesinger that many of the questions were inappropriate. However, Schlesinger went on and more than suggested that the essay assignment was part of an “information-gathering operation” by the NEA, the Democratic Party, and other unnamed sinister forces. I’m not making this up.
