Part-time Indian has been cleared...

...to return to the curriculum in Washington State's Richland High Schools.

This time, before voting on it, the school board — GET THIS — actually read the book.

Good job, folks!

ALSO: Note that Meghan Cox Gurdon's original WSJ essay (you know the one!) was cited by one of the two people who spoke out against the book.

Which is something that, I believe, was predicted by a whole lot of people.

I love this part: "[Donahoe] read the book two days after the June 14 meeting and found it to be "outstanding," he said."

Um, yeah. When you actually read books you learn things about their content.

Here's my favorite line: "In the future, he will read every book he will vote on, Donahoe said."

Ya think? What is wrong with people?
