I'm sure after all this attention they have reviewed his speech and changed and removed anything that would be controversial. Not sure why parents are now bitching about this when they send their kids to goverment run schools, have teachers that are goverment employees, and most belong to the left leaning teachers union. That one reason my children go to private schools.

I don't know, I think the outrage runs deeper than that. I wonder how many parents who are up in arms over this have actually read what he's going to say.
