Liars have their own special place in Hell...

This story has caused a lot of pointless noise in right-wing media circles. The right wing hacks have been crying "the liberals have banned the Declaration of Independence"! Pure rubbish.

A California teacher was prohibited from using cobbled together excerpts from historical documents to push his extremist religious views on his students. The teacher obviously had been warned about this before, and was required to submit his "supplemental material" to the principal prior to using in class.

The DOI was not banned. Only the distorted excerpting of it.

Of course, that's a small detail in the eyes of FoxNews and right-wing radio. They'll bear any false witness in their pursuit of bashing liberals.

My question is, why to people put up with it?
