Texas board of education wants to change books to affect nation, but can't even afford the books

The fine folks overseeing how kids learn in Texas want to change textbooks to give them a right wing slant, and they know that textbooks all over the United States will be changed to suit Texas (As they a large purchaser). But at the same time, the kids themselves won't be getting any new books for what could be months.

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Some students are starting the new school year without new textbooks. The delay may not seem like such a big deal, but it might be for students who need to do homework.

Parents are still trying to make sense of the message they received from Tomball ISD telling them that their children will not have all the new textbooks which have been ordered.

According to this letter sent home from Tomball Superintendent John Neubauer, the delay in getting new books to the classrooms is due to "...legislative cut backs..."

A Texas Education Agency spokesperson says the problem is rooted in the legislature's delay in funding and changes in the way purchases are made. As a result, books couldn't be ordered in the spring as they generally are. Most orders were just made this month.

So caught up trying to indoctrinate kids all over the US and they can't even care for their own.

Our textbook coordinator, an assistant principal who is a huge teabagger and brags that her first vote was for Nixon in 72, was bitching and moaning about this in our offices last week. I smiled to myself, and said nothing.

levels. Our property taxes are going up to fund community higher education and our schools in Texas.

I suspect Tomball is a very poor district that can't raise money via the local taxing authority. So those kids are forced to do without, thanks to our idiot state legislators.

... in screwing themselves tea baggers didn't screw the rest of us too.

As fun as it is to make fun of tea baggers and thier ignorance and hypocrisy, let snot forget they are just "useful idiots'
