I’m as progressive as they get, but this book makes me pray it’s actually satire published by a right-wing author. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you this:

So essentially over the past few decades we’ve made great strides to warn our children against the stereotyping of others on the basis of race, only to now send them the message that there’s an invisible political line down our society, is that it? Are we to infer that conservative parents don’t care about their country, much less their children? Look, I’m all for skewering Republicans, but why not work with the wealth of material they provide us daily instead of mass-producing propaganda thinly-disguised as a children’s book? Besides, let’s face it: if they were the ones publishing a book of this sort, you can be sure virtually everyone on the left would decry it as an act of fundamentalist brainwashing. See, I’m already agreeing with the right-wingers and that is unacceptable!

I’m ashamed of this book. We can do better than this.
