I don’t know what to say

by David Safier

I posted last night about the clear signals that Foothills School Board candidate Tammy Caillet-Falbaum is not only hoping to steer the school district in a more conservative direction, but she's part of a concerted effort, probably led by John Munger, to push for a hard core, conservative educational agenda.

Here is what her signs look like as of yesterday. I've been told all her signs are flying two flags now.

No, I don't hate the flag, in case someone is thinking about making a comment like that. But this kind of flag waving is right wing territory, and creating an equation of education with patriotism leads to a kind of educational agenda which ignores historical reality in favor of American mythology.
