if romney won the potus by 25% over obama, people would be yelling from the rooftops about a landslide victory.

25% is alot more than even people like you would have believed.

how slight is it now?

somehow i think if would have provided proof that said 99% instead of 25% did it, you would have still said it was too little.

you did not want proof, you just wanted to spout off about how people could not provide you with proof and when someone did provide proof, all you are doing is trying to get out from under what you said as slight.
Come on Gomer. I even highlighted the word majority in red.

Sorry, but you're not off the hook on this one.

You would still have the ability to 'teach' your kids whatever mumbo jumbo you want for the other 138 hours of the week. As I said before, if this isn't enough time for you to permanently implant the chip, then you should re-examine the validity of your own beliefs.

And no, I don't think that parents are the best experts.

It wasn't until we allowed parents so many options (magnet, private, Charter, home) that the public schools started being dismantled.

The public schools cannot be dismantled quickly enough! Bring it on.....charter, private, vouchers, and Homeschooling. They've done enough damage and indoctrinated enough generations that our nation finally elected a true Marxist.
HERE is a bit, but a very important bit of proof that the Public schools should all fail, suffer from national bankruptcy and be gone......relegated to our history books.

A short video of Public School teachers meeting just last year, in March. Absolutely disgusting....


Note the first teacher here....rambling, such disoriented speaking that it's scary SHE is a teacher, and you have doubts about PARENTS teaching, simply because they ARE, parents!
However, what is big here is that the second teacher reveals that they have ways of teaching MARXIST ideas....this is "indoctrination" of our youth. Been happening for years, but more blatantly now.

Check out his status comment before you say that.

I'm on Sunnysee's hook, Please help meeee!

You don't sound like a parent. Otherwise you'd understand this.

No liberal 'wants' to spend the extra money to send their children to private schools. They'd much rather have access to good public schools. But, that unfortunately isn't possible in many school systems.

So, given the choice of paying for a private school and putting their children first, or forcing their children to go to under performing public schools, just to prove a point to the right wingers, they do what any good parent with a triple digit IQ would do. They put their children first.

Then, even though they aren't still in the public school system anymore, they still fight for better schools for the masses, because they understand that we're all in this together. It's called looking at the big picture, and caring for others.
All true, however why is it hat the left doesn't wish to give all children the same opportunity?

It tends more to be rich Republicans who send their kids to private schools.
As one who sends his kid to a fancy public school, you would be wrong.

Yeah I thought not. No way that school lets average rabble hob nob with the wealthy elites kids.

What WOULD happen though, is that schools would become legally segregated (which is exactly what the voucher set is after).
Where I live there are many inner city families who would love to send their children to parochial schools with vouchers, and the parochial schools would happily accept them. There are privately funded voucher programs already in place here, and some local parochial schools have a significant number of black & hispanic students.
