**By the way, how is the homeschooling situation in the Golden State? Have CA homeschoolers experienced any problems or is Delaine Easton's Jihad just an empty threat? **

Delaine Easton is a snivley tempest in the teapot...succeeded in frightening some homeschool families but overall we as homeschoolers are a mighty force and knew her blathering to be foolish. Keep in mind that Delaine lied on employment records about being credentialed. She's not credentialed. Liar and a fool.

I find it amazing that education is the most important issue as our economy falls to pieces. If we could get the word out, I think Davis would lose a lot of support.

If he's really serious about fixing the schools, he should have broken up the notoriously bad LAUSD [Los Angeles Unified School District]. But he won't, because the teachers' unions love it.

Anyone have a chart of how much our school budget spends on administration versus in-classroom expenses? I seem to remember the figures were pretty horrifying.
