I'm a homeschooler, and do not believe in dismantling public education. I'd like to dismantle the NEA, and the gazillion PC ideas that are currently strangling the education of too many of America's youth. I also believe that education is NOT a federal issue, except in very rare instances.

Laura Bush brings much needed respect to the profession.

Yes, she does. Too bad we did not have a teacher in the White House for the past eight years. I believe it could have made a big difference for many teachers who have since left the profession.

I sure agree with you on this joathome!! The NEA is corrupt down to its crayola shavings, and needs to be discarded!

As to the PC ideas, I believe (and pray) that 9/11 has helped remove many of them, and that others will follow. I believe that the minority ACLU types that have kept school administrators and teachers huddled in a corner afraid of everything right and good, have at least temporarily, been silenced.

Perhaps now is the time to reclaim public schools as AMERICAN institutions, and get them out of the hands of the leftists!
