From the “freedoms? we don’t need no stinkin freedoms” files we find this posting over on Boing Boing. In what can only be described as fitting when you remember that Bush is in office.

“The Government Printing Office sells a set of flash cards that are designed to help soon-to-be citizens learn about our government. Question 80 asks, ‘Name one right or freedom guaranteed by the First Amendment.’ The answer lists freedom of speech, religion, assembly and the right to petition the government — but omits freedom of the press.”

Why am I not surprised? (insert sound of grinding teeth)
