Did I say I didn't hear laughter?
I did, however, mention the laughter in my first attempt at a reply to you, which got lost in the webverse. There was a spattering of laughter following his lame jokes...even up to his gun comment. Right after that (1.24?) the applause started.
So there we have it. There was laughter, and if you are admitting the obvious, that it was a joke, lame or not, then what difference does it make? Unless he seriously as a matter of policy wants to have kids taught from this guy at gunpoint, this entire thing is a nonstory, just like I thought.
There wasn't any applause after his joke. That was what TP was stating. Of course they weren't calling it a joke.
Wow, all these pages, and it turned out to be nothing to this story. Even though everyone seemed to fight all the way to the end, then... poof!
This is a good example of how you guys are so easily manipulated by the press, even this far left version of it. Can't you do a little critical thinking when you read articles like this? I mean doesn't this sound too good to be true? A major Republican wants to hold a gun to the head of every kid to learn history from a kook? President Huckabee was going to have an Education bill that will provide armed guards to aim weapons at children to make sure they learn history from a nut?
It's kind of scary that you guys fall for this stuff so easily.
Since everything you've claimed about this story has been shown as bullshit, there is still one missing thread to this before we put it to bed: What is the William Ayers connection? It must be a big one since the title was edited to that effect. So I'm curious. Give me the William Ayers argument.
