So they shouldn't mind if the Dept of Education is eliminated?

Home schooling would be the best thing ever for most of these kids.

Blind, unthinking, reflexive opposition is sometimes hilarious. :-)

Yeah, because the secretary of the education dept has SO much effect on local education. But also, take note. These mental cases will use their own kids to make a political point. What would they do to us if given the chance?

DeVos’ confirmation is already starting to pay dividends. Especially for these kids who will be home schooled as a result of her confirmation.

**Among the initial opposition to Betsy DeVos’ confirmation this week as education secretary were calls on social media by parents, including liberals, to start homeschooling their children.**

Which, oddly enough, DeVos supports.

Any child that is being raised in a liberal household is being subjected to abuse.

Homeschooling leftists will save the government money, just as homeschooling conservatives have been doing for decades. But are they ready to sacrifice their careers for the sake of their kids? To discipline junior when he won’t do his homework?

If I understand her position on this correctly, I believe she would applaud these people.
