Do I Live In A "Red State"?
One of the school boards in the Seattle area, banned showing An Inconvenient Truth because it is "controversial". What is the World coming to? <sarcasm> If that's their standard does this mean they can't show Schnidler's List unless they also include commentary by Ahmadinejad?! I hear that smoking is good for you too. Perhaps that needs to be taught in health class?! Maybe Civics clas needs to include reading more Karl Marx and a little less Thomas Jefferson?! </sarcasm>
The primary source of "controversary" surrounding the issue is due to oil companies. (e.g. The Denial Machine).

B.C. students getting Gore's doc ...
