Nope, no lib bias here. A teacher Fit would be proud of.

Quote:(NBC DC) – A D.C. sixth-grade teacher will apologize for an assignment that asked students to draw comparisons between former President George W. Bush and Adolf Hitler.

The McKinley Middle School teacher sent students home with a Venn diagram and asked them to compare and contrast Bush and Hitler.

At least one parent found it troubling on a number of levels. He told News4 he sees a certain lack of respect for the office of the president. And the instructions read “both men who abused their powers,” which the parent said presents opinion as fact.

D.C. Public Schools released a statement late Wednesday saying the teacher has admitted poor judgment and will apologize to students.

How in the hell do these idiots become teachers?

I'd walk by with lighter and set that ablaze.

Academia is full with the like minded trash that cannot make a living any other way. Ward Churchill, Bill Ayers the list is endless.

That teacher needs to be fired.

1. The photograph in the OP was taken in Finland.

2. This Hitler/Bush thing is unusual for how obvious and overt the teacher's agenda is. Normally, people in that position are much more subtle and crafty in their presentation. But the underlying agenda is almost always the same as it is here: poison the students' minds against anyone and anything that smacks of "conservative" or "Republican".

I respect the office of the POTUS, not the POS who is now occupying it.

Same as how well the left "respected the office" when Bush was in. Do we have movies about assassinating zero??

Pot... meet kettle.

Maybe They should do an Anti-Christ vs. Obama comparison for the next assignment.

Yeah, the irony in his statement is amazing.

That's a great idea...but, you couldn't do a Vinn diagram because they are one in the same!

Any idiot can become a teacher.

It's sad. The low salaries mean you get a vast majority of them that are literally unqualified for just about anything else. It's really a shame because there are some honest do-gooders.

Both sides have done a pretty piss poor job of respecting the office for the past 14 years.

It goes back much further than that. There were (for example) protests against Nixon the very day he took office in 1969.

Am I the only one who found this a tad bit troubling?

I wasn't even an apple in my old man's eye when he took office haha. Despite being a poli sci major with a history minor, my knowledge of presidential history (at least the public perceptions of them) is pretty weak. I don't remember things being this pointed against Bush 1 and Clinton though.

Since the school district will not do anything to the teacher, the parent, and others of like mind, should hold a rally, with signs containing the teacher's picture and name. Then when the local TV news sends in the cameras, the teacher will get the proper recognition he most certainly covets.
