This is precisely why I was glad I was able to travel to parts of Europe and Asia while in the military. I know a lot of people who have never left my state and are human clay to these kinds of idiots. Friggin' fascist "these colors don't run", Toby Keith listening to mullets.

Indeed, kellychaos, indeed. I finally broke my state chain in 2002 and have felt better than I ever have. Odd how the 'greatest nation in the world' doesn't really see the need in searching over countries. Oh wait, we're all fucking retarded, that's why.

I mean, I know that they pay the taxes for local schools but shouldn't their interests be that the student receive a universal, well-rounded education that promotes critical analysis? How can you compete with your world counter-parts when you don't even know them?

Probably because that so-called Critical Thinking would make the parents feel inferior and instead of actually trying to learn something, would instead try to gain superiority within the realm of religion. In fact, this whole creationism bullshit is the Baby Boomers screaming about how they don't know has much as their kids know now and feel the need to somehow rejustify their existence now that they're all headed into senileville. Your mileage may vary, however.
