CONTROVERSY SWIRLS OVER ANTI-AMERICAN TEACHER

Story notes “At the center of the storm was Overland High School teacher Jay Bennish, whose lecture in a world geography class last month also included harsh words about capitalism, U.S. foreign policy and the invasion of Iraq. At one point in a 21- minute, 40-second recording of the lecture, Bennish called America "probably the single most violent nation on planet Earth." (Rocky Mountain News)

The teacher was suspended, leading many students to walk out (FOX News)

Walter Williams is convincing me NOT to go to George Mason University's Economics program.

This former department chairman held any economics professor *under suspicion* for not supporting his simplistic free market views. (See *A dynamite economics department* article.) Now he hates Jay Bennish for discussing US policies' international problems.

I argue with left and right teachers because I want to think.
