Oh I agree, it is very definitely hypocritical!!! But for me, it seems like more of the same.

I only went to High School in the US, back in the 77-81 and the changes they want to make hearken back to 30 years ago, like we leaned nothing from Communism and the World Wars.

I was an odd little kid who kept up with politics from as early as I can remember. I grew up with the US overthrowing governments, lying and doing all sorts of covert things...all the while pointing the finger at everyone else.....this is nothing new to me.

I just hope that like us, kids will question and research and try to find out what the truth really is.

ps. not sure how old you are, we might be the same age and I am just more bitter? I grew up in Argentina and saw the US in full hypocrisy early on.
