If it IS Ayers, I’m jerking my kids out of school. They will be sent to a private Christian school nearby, or I will homeschool. Period.

If you are not ready to homeschool, consider seriously sending your kids to a nearby Christian school.

If he does, the hearings might be fun to watch.

Shirley Ann Jackson, Ph.D.
President, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Actually Ayers will be the “reeducation” secretary.

Obomo will pick an anti home schooling, cradle to grave, revisionist, Socialist propagandist. Who it is doesn’t matter, as long as your children become good little Marxists who hate the old America.

You’re all wrong. Obama is going to abolish the Dept. of Education because it sucks up over $50 BILLION every year and doesn’t do ANYTHING to educate a single person in our country. He has concluded we are all far better off if we keep the money in our communities and determine how to spend it at the local level rather than shipping it to a bunch of bureaucrat know-nothings in Washington DC.

Hey, I can dream, can’t I? Maybe this could be Obama’s “going to China” moment.

“Joycelyn Elders”

Not to be crude or vulgar, but wasn’t she the Surgeon General that wanted to teach teenage boys how to masterbate?

Whoever it is they will be either half-black/homosexual/trans-gender/lesbian/marxist/communist/pedophile or any combination of the aforementioned. Qualifications don’t matter.

We can tell that you are neither crude nor vulgar since you don't even even know how to spell "masturbate" ...:-)

But, yes, you are right...
