CAC High SchoolSomehow last week the world seemed to come unbalanced. Maybe it was the televised destruction of Iraq...no matter how bad the leader is, I find it hard to watch war on television like some mini-series. It definitely was unbalancing to go to my children's old school for an art show in the high school to see that the administration of what was a very good international school has fallen victim to the worst sort of Americans. The sort that think they know the absolute truth and who are totally unafraid of manipulating their environment to achieve their aims. The teachers are afraid to talk to parents or students about anything more interesting than the weather. A mix of local politics and international politics...the same push to support the US president even though what he is doing is so wrong. When did politically correct come to mean staying clearly in line and not deviating from the set path?
