This is a little better, and gives a better outline of what is going on.
In a word.....Bullshit. I'm not betraying my Mariner loyalty to say that the Yankees were the best team in baseball in the 90's...they just were. That's the reality. This bill just puts into law what teachers were already going to do (and have already begun doing) on their own: teaching children MORE about reality, and LESS about historical crap (WWI, War of 1812, etc., which get whole weeks worth of attention)
Probably the wrong forum to rant about politics in, but oh well.
