An interesting phrasing of a high school knowledge bowl question... |
|
I was watching two high schools compete in a knowledge bowl competition on local PBS in south Texas. A question something like this was asked: What country has become a hero to the poor of Massachusetts by providing home heating oil and is not a friend to the Bush Administration? It was interesting because Venezuela wasn't portrayed as an enemy to the US, only to the Bush Admin!
Another thing that was cool: a student knew the answer.

political bias in something like this. The question should have been, "What country is providing inexpensive fuel to residents of Mass?"
