4. Liberal views, Hah
I've been saying for a long time that neither the courts, or education are truly liberal, but range somewhere between extremely conservative to centrist. When you hear liberal these days it really means centrist.

It actually wouldn't surprise me though if conservatives did get lower grades, due to the quality they have of rejecting facts in lieu of "truthiness" or rhetoric, or religionism.

The attack on education by conservatives is just another prong in the right-wing conspiracy, which goes much wider than just attacking a philandering democrat (right-center at that). They are moving on all fronts, catholicism, education, media, war-mongering for gain, and it has been working. Pretending education is liberal is a method to try to make education more conservative, but it is difficult. Unfortunately for them, smart, thinking people aren't easily swayed by rhetoric, or mysticism. Educators are liberal simply because they are smarter, and it benefits them personally too. Think about the general attitudes of republicans toward teachers, toward public education. A teacher voting for Republicans is like a jew voting for Hitler.
