Holy crap!!!  I just sent this to the principal of my daughter's school.  Thanks for posting!

(I like how on page 6 it says that more than two thirds couldn't identify the 2 parts of congress.  The percentage is 77%.  Two thirds?  What percentage of Goldwater Institute proofreaders can pass an 8th grade math test?)
