"Wisconsin schools will be required to teach the history of organized labor under a bill signed by Gov. Jim Doyle.
The bill Doyle signed Thursday also requires Wisconsin schools to teach the history of collective bargaining.
The proposal has been around for years but never passed. This year it cleared the Democratic controlled Legislature despite opposition from school boards and administrators who said they didn’t want the curriculum micromanaged.
Labor unions supported the bill."
Gotta love the desperation on the radical right and more garage from Beck's propaganda site. I guess this is A-OK when it's tea party trash spreading hate into children.

Kruschev said in the 50's that the USA will fall to Communism without spilling a drop of blood. It would be done through our youth. Sound familiar?
well that ain't gonna help their cause. They can thank God my kids weren't made to be there. abuse by a person with authority is wrong, but times have changed and a kid still has to do what they gotta do to get an A
Is this similar to having young kids carry billboards of fetuses to anti-choice rallys?
Is this like taking kids to teabag events?
Or is it only exploitation because you don't agree with the cause?
I don't know what a "teabag event" is, but considering the sexual nature of the activity, I would say that taking kids would probably be inappropriate.
As for the rest, I have no problem with bringing kids to these kinds of events, as long as they're safe. It's good for kids to see freedom and democracy in action.
When the kids become the the protesters, at the direction of their parents or other authority figures, then a line has been crossed. I don't care what you're bringing them there to argue for or against - they shouldn't be fully participating if they don't even have the capacity to understand what they're doing.
So tell me, chielgirl, do you think it was OK for them to be there, putting on a rehearsed demonstration about things they don't understand? I have no doubt that you'd be against it if it were any of the things you mentioned, but what about this? Your post was noticeably lacking in either support or condemnation of this event. Please, let us know what you think about it.
