He talks about education of the young making the country more productive, but all I hear are kids singing "Mmmm. Mmmm. Mmmmm. Barack. Hussein. Obama." (strange, only one year ago saying Hussein was the vilest of all things that could be said and now kids are singing it).

Keillor and the rest of the leftists who think that education should be provided by the Federal government are complete and utter morons.

Federal involvement in education has only resulted in dramatically reduced quality of education, the devaluation of the high school and college diplomas, and immense price increases.

It's a pity that the Republicans were too cowardly and short-sighted to actually keep their promises and reduce the Department of Education to rubble. Instead of cutting off subsidies for leftist academia's continued indoctrination and brainwashing of American youth, they enlarged the bureaucracy and cemented it further by passing No Child Left Behind.
