Your 'challenge post' makes it fairly clear that you are a color close to 'Maroon'. You do recall that in the 1990s, in the Toon's first term, there were various movements in states (and in Congress) to impose standardized content requirements on homeschoolers - and if you wouldn't abide, then they could force your kid to go to public school and put you in the pokey.

I was one of the millions who responded to pleas from Dr. Dobson and raised our voices to our representatives in 93-94 to make sure it didn't happen.

Uh huh.

Tell, me, Al, since obviously I wasn't paying attention back then -- what district did Hillary Clinton serve in the House of Representatives? What bill did Hillary Clinton sponsor that would 'make homeschooling illegal?' For that matter, did Bill Clinton say about the subject? A sound byte? One word?

Once again, here's what I wrote in my challenge:

Where, praytell, did you get the idea that Hillary Rodham Clinton would 'make homeschooling illegal'? If she had actually said something like that (I don't have to disprove it -- you have to prove it), what makes you think she could outlaw homeschooling anymore than a pro-life President could outlaw abortion?

Your snarkiness can't hide the truth (which you accuse "Rudy Haters" of denying); Hillary has NEVER said anything about outlawing homeschooling and even if she DID, she couldn't do it by fiat. The same way all the talk of punishing homeschoolers was smacked down during the first Clinton administration would be the way it would be stopped in a second, heaven forbid.

So, like I thought, in order to whip up enthusiasm about Rudy like meringue, you're talking out of your raspberries, and you need a breath mint.
