Ya might think, but in our state (MD) the public school system can’t even handle the percentage that it has. They build new schools and then put in trailers right away, because they can’t keep up with the student populations.

The homeschool folks from our county are old school public school teachers and they seem to have a disdain for what is going on and are very happy to accomodate homeschool families that we know.

My children go to a private Lutheran school and it costs us a pretty good percentage of our income to do that ~ contracts have been down over these past few years ~ I don’t know that we could homeschool if we had to. The option of public school is NOT even on the table.

Many of the teachers at my children’s school are retired public school teachers who seem to have a contempt for the current system, as well as a 20 to 25 years each of experience in education as it was meant to be.

1- Abortion. He will have to make up for the destruction of Palin in the eyes of feminists.

2- Talk Radio. Kiss everyone but Rush goodbye.

3- Guns. Envision a world where only the gummint has guns. It's for your own good.

4- Courts. I expect that both Stevens and Ginsburg will retire the day after he's sworn in.

5- The “rich”. suddenly, we all become “rich” and taxed accordingly under the new tax code.

6- The Internet. They will try to get “speech fairness” enforced on the WWW.

7- Russia. The Soviets will test him and he will fail miserably. Then Bin Laden, the Hugo, the Imanuttajob, then Lil’ Kim...

8- The UN and America's best days are behind us. He will inform us that we are no longer that beacon on the hill but just another world player.

9- Gas. Expect $9 gallon gas in less than four years and the corresponding economic decline.

Many Americans will die for the sake of “change” for change’s sake. It'll be 1992 all over again, but with more dire consequences and a media that will cover it all up for the black guy.
So go ahead and vote for Barr.. That'll teach us.
