Another Reason to Keep Your Children Away from Government Schools
February 12, 2013
Hollywood leftist Steven Spielberg is giving DVDs of his historically bogus “Lincoln” movie to all “public” middle and high schools. When Congressman Joe Courtney of Connecticut asked Spielberg to correct the blatant lie in the movie that Connecticut congressmen voted against the Thirteenth Amendment that ended slavery Spielberg ignored him. He then sent his screenwriter, Tony Kushner, out to cry poetic license and write in USA Today that “it’s only a movie.” They have apparently changed their minds about that and are promoting the movie in the government’s brainwashing and propaganda mills as true history.
