Eric Bolling is a co-host on FoxNews' program, The Five. During a segment on "indoctrination in schools" he said some schools are pushing the liberal agenda by teaching algebra's distributive property because of the wording at the top of a Scholastic algebra worksheet. The worksheet's heading is "Distribute the wealth", which appears to be the sticking point for him and the other panelists from the video I watched.
“But even worse is the way some textbooks are pushing the liberal agenda,” the Fox News host explained, pointing to an algebra worksheet that Scholastic says gives students “nsight into the distributive property as it applies to multiplication.”

I didn't know algebra was a political issue. But it seems everything these days is made into a political issue. And that irritates me.
