Dear Rachel Maddow: I'm so glad that you "love" daylight saving time. It's just that there is a horrid trade-off for your evening revels. Millions of school children must roll out of bed, dress, eat and travel to school in pre-dawn darkness.
How about this: Ignore what the clock says and do your evening thang according to where the sun is. Leave the rest of us alone. You're a big TV star, lady. Own your life.

Dear Glenn Beck: Thanks for the warning about social justice and economic justice being code words used by the Nazis and Communists.
One problem, though ... the Nazis lost the fighting war, and the Communists (even China's communism is mutating) lost the economic war. Their philosophies went bye-bye. Game over.
Did you go to school in Texas?

Dear Texas State Board of Education: Congrats on the victory that will let you rewrite the history taught to Texas students ... history with an ultraconservative, Christian slant.
One problem for your brainwashing program: The Internet. Heard of it? Used to be that students had no access to alternative points of view, on any subject. Nowadays, the Web overflows with info, facts, and balance. E-books, cable TV ... there are a zillion outlets for actual facts.
Only the most stupid of Texas children will never learn what the rest of the world already knows.
Ignorance can be fixed; stupid is forever.
