    Well, there are two possibilities here:

    1. The teacher is trying to recruit/push his students to the Democratic Party, in which case he is using the classroom as a platform for his personal beliefs and should be fired.

    or,

    2. He merely distributed material that was given to him as the article suggested, without knowing what it entailed, or without understanding that he should be presenting all points of view, in which case he has no business teaching political science and should be fired.

    Sourdough, if we wanted the Fox News RSS feed, we could just subscribe to it like you did.

    What do you mean we?
    Why are you speaking for others?
    I posted an article here yesterday from the UK Guardian but keep in mind the more people like you complain about Fox News the more I will post from Fox News.
    The arrogance from the people on the left is just amazing!

    Since you've converted FSA into the Fox News RSS, it's not really possibly for you to post more of their tripe. But, knock yourself out. I don't read that crap; I just find it amusing.

    I luv annoying people who act like Obama when it comes to Fox News.

    Isn't it funny that Obama blasts Fox News, Capitalism, Banks, CEO's and all the groupies join in the choir.
    You sure can tell the ones around here.
    The politicians are just as guilty as anyone in the private sector.

    It's one thing to having a bleeding-heart liberal loser teaching and influencing at the college level. God knows many at that level are intelligent but have a few loose screws.

    At the high school level you can't tolerate this. If he knew the content or failed to screen it, he should be terminated. If not, any parent who elects to have their child removed from the class should have the option.
