Reply #8: I would have enjoyed that class greatly

Any idea why the freeper claims the teacher is a "Bush Basher"??

Judging by the syllabus, the class will make the students think, and will give them all insight into events going on in the world right now, no matter what their political beliefs are. And not just wars that might be going on near where there's lots of oil -- every year there are lots of trade & territorial disputes between nations. After this class, the kids will hear and understand what's going on rather than having their eyes glaze over when those stories come on the news.

But then again, if you're used to swallowing some RW think tank's talking points whole after Limbaugh spouts the weekly memo rather than thinking for yourself, you might not like having savvy kids...
