Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) provoked a strong backlash after calling for the mass firing of the 5,000 teachers who signed a petition saying they would defy any ban on the teaching of “Critical Race Theory.” Critics point out that Rep. Boebert - herself a high school dropout - obtained this “information” about the teachers, directly from the ultra-conservative Breitbart website.

So, Rep. Boebert wants to fire any teachers who don’t support arbitrary supervision or bans by extremist politicians over their teaching curriculum? Gee, and to think all this time I assumed Boebert and her Republican pals were supposed to be opposed to the "cancel culture?” Of course, it’s doubtful Rep. Boebert has any idea whatsoever as to what “Critical Race Theory” actually is, other than “she knows she hates it.”

Besides, when it comes to firing teachers, there’s no need for Rep. Boebert to get all shook up about this. The fact is, underpaid and overworked teachers are already leaving the profession at an historic rate, anyway. Not to mention, “Critical Race Theory” isn’t even taught in K-12 classes in the first place. It’s an upper level law school theory, which is primarily taught in graduate schools.

Of course, it comes as no surprise to anyone familiar with Boebert’s rantings, that she is a high school dropout. Like Trump, she thinks she already knows everything, so why bother going to school? Now, in her defense, I suppose someone has to represent all those folks who believe the world is flat, or the only way to prevent crime and violence, is to make sure everyone is heavily armed with automatic weapons.

Interestingly enough, it was Boebert’s own campaign that insisted she get her GED diploma just months before she won election to the House. Even then, she only narrowly passed her GED on her forth try. Frankly, I’d be surprised if she could even spell “GED.” One thing’s for sure, if Republicans do manage to seize power again, Boebert would be a shoe-in for their Secretary of Education. And, what an example she could set for today’s youth, proving “ya don’t need ya no stink’n education, to get elected to congress.”
