Bush, Cheney included in 5 worst people list in middle school year book, school in hot water

[Cannikin]

Russellville, Arkansas

"The list is titled "Top 5 worst people of all time." The top three, in order, are Adolph Hitler, Osama Bin Laden, and Charles Manson. Numbers four and five are George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.

"I think it's just hard to explain, and I've talked to the sponsor and she is very very very upset about it. That she didn't pay any attention to that particular part of that particular page," he said. "I think she maybe just scanned the whole page and went on."

Sorry for posting a Fox link, but they're the only ones covering the story locally so far.

12. Expect a way-out-of-proportion and merciless reaction to this.

Considering that this is a 'red' city in a dry, 'red' county, in a 'red' state' that's the prong on the Bible belt, the locals are soon going to violently erupt in retribution.

My guess is the order of a mass recall and reissue of the yearbook under penalty of law, as well as forcing the kids behind the joke(?) into a humiliating public apology. Anything less won't satisfy the african-killer-bee wingnuts.

14. If they had the kids turn in votes on this

and these are the results, what is there to be upset about? The kids seem to know what's going on, so they proved they can sort information and come to correct conclusions. Would it have been better if they had censored the kids opinion?

15. i think charles manson is out of his league on this list.

compared to the others he is a minor criminal.
