You guys might be interested to know that nowadays the schools teach that Mexico was a benevolent Democracy, that the Texians were a bunch of slave trading land grabbing racist gun nuts, and Mexico was simply trying to defend itself against aggression. My 13 year old had Texas history this year and I am amazed at how the story has changed. When I talk about the 'Liberal Agenda' in our schools and folks ask me WTF I'm talking about I can only conclude that they don't have any kids. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/03/and_for_all_you_texians.html#comment-2527 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/03/and_for_all_you_texians.html#comment-2527 Sun, 07 Mar 2004 07:15:20 -0600 What did the sentry on duty at the Alamo say when he saw the Mexican army arrive?

Travis, the landscapers are here!" http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/03/and_for_all_you_texians.html#comment-2524 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/03/and_for_all_you_texians.html#comment-2524 Sat, 06 Mar 2004 23:02:20 -0600
