Barbara Norton Says Teaching Declaration of Independence Unfair To Blacks [VIDEO]

A bill that would mandate that students in Louisiana schools be taught the Declaration of Independence sailed through the House Education committee, but when the proposal hit the House floor for debate, it was a different story.

From the website thehayride.com:

"The Louisiana House of Representatives has 61 Republican members out of 105, and yet it was apparent no consensus for a cornerstone of basic civics in the state’s public schools did not seem available to the bill’s supporters."

But that's not all The Hayride noted:

"What we found out was something many of us knew – namely, that Rep. Barbara Norton, a Democrat from Shreveport, isn’t a fan of our founding documents – and also is a barely sentient being.

"Have a look at Norton’s cranky questioning of (bill sponsor Valerie) Hodges about the Declaration of Independence, and consider the prospects of Louisiana’s legislature contributing positively to the state’s civic progress…"
