Mean Teacher II

This article, via Drudge, tells of a teacher at a Latino charter school making racist comments about students of Mexican extraction. Can a teacher really be that stupid? Or, can seventh graders really be such sophisticated spin artists?

Honest to toast pointlets, if you believe any school-related article coming down the pike (you may have noted another of today's Drudge headlines, regarding an assistant principal asking teenage girls about sexual acts) folks in the education industry are about as dumb as a box of rocks.

Personal experience dictates, however, that students know the power of the "race card," and aren't remotely afraid to lay it down, if they think it will get a desired reaction (or distraction).

Also, I could've sworn Kristyn Hartman reported for our local Fox affiliate. When did she defect to Chi-town?
