My teacher mostly comments on how Bush lies to the whole world and was like shocked for like two weeks after Bush get re-elected. He also has that famous picture in the classroom "How can 59 Million people be so dumb."
I personally view Americans as good people, but some certain people and groups give the US a very bad image.
I don't like hard-core republicans and hard-core conservatives in general however John MCcain is a good republican.
One thing i hate is that the new Canadian conservative PM wants the Canadian govt to run like the US govt.
So after my rant, i think a few jokes here and there are good. a few class discussions here and there too. However to go forever is not good.

I think posters like "how could 59 million people be so dumb" doesn't do anything except offend or amuse. I would like nothing more than to see Bush and all his helpers kicked out of the white house and forced to live in Somalia for 10 years in a shanty town, but propoganda like that poster just incites and furthers the gap between an already divided U.S. society.
Sorry, I know I'm off topic but I just wanted to say sumpin about that.
should teachers rant about religion? absolutely no
politics? yes, because we all havbe our own views and it is nice to have a calm debate in the class and listen to the teacher's views. Plus, if we can keep him talking for long enough....less notes
I'd compare Bush to Hitler, too. I don't think the teacher did anything wrong. If this teacher said how wonderful Bush was, and a student disagreed, would the teacher have been suspended?
