Get Them While They're Young - Part II

My last post ended with the following: 

And finally, here's the real kicker:  You haven't seen anything yet.  Think I'm crazy?
You just sit back and watch.

Oh, and by the way ... I told you so.  :-)

Wow.  I opened my big mouth way too soon.  Holy crap.  I think the following falls under the "You haven't seen anything yet" factor:

Reading, writing and . . . global warming?

A Silicon Valley lawmaker is gaining momentum with a bill that would require “climate change” to be among the science topics that all California public school students are taught.

The measure, by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, also would mandate that future science textbooks approved for California public schools include climate change.

“You can’t have a science curriculum that is relevant and current if it doesn’t deal with the science behind climate change,” Simitian said. “This is a phenomenon of global importance and our kids ought to understand the science behind that phenomenon.”

The state Senate approved the bill, SB 908, Jan. 30 by a 26-13 vote. It heads now to the state Assembly. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has taken numerous actions to reduce global warming, but he has yet to weigh in on Simitian’s bill. Other Republicans in the Capitol, however, are not happy about the proposal.

Some say the science on global warming isn’t clear, while others worry the bill would inject environmental propaganda into classrooms.

“I find it disturbing that this mandate to teach this theory is not accompanied by a requirement that the discussion be science-based and include a critical analysis of all sides of the subject,” said Sen. Tom McClintock, R-Thousand Oaks, during the Senate debate.

I agree with Senator McClintock.  First off, the global warming climate change religion is all based on theory, not fact.  Second, where is the critical analysis of all sides of the subject?  Senator McClintock just reminded me of something - Isn't global warming climate change a religion to many of the same people who want to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine?  That said, where is the "other side" going to be with this so called "climate change" curriculum?  Very interesting, wouldn't you say?  So much for fairness.

That's right, let's indoctrinate those kids at a young age and teach them to swallow the global warming climate change kool-aid.  Make them true believers!

Yep.  Like I said, you haven't seen anything yet.

And yes ... I did tell you so.  :-)
