According to a piece in 'This Week' that I read 'Recording teachers is a new trend in schools in the US: one right-wing group recently offered pupils $100 for tapes illustrating left-wing bias among teachers.'
Reading the transcript that Jinnkai posted I think that a lot of people have been a little quick to condemn this guy. He never said that Bush is like Hitler. All he said was that some of the things that Bush said sound like things that Hitler said. He even goes on to say 'I'm not saying Bush and Hitler are exactly the same. Obviously they're, not,'
Although I would say that offering kids rewards for taping teachers does seem to have certain fascist implications. Assuming that it's true of course, which given that they didn't name the group may not be the case.
