Sept. 8 Rebellion: Now Endorsed by Hoodlums & Homeschoolers

A Great Article From VodkaPundit On Homeschooling vs Government Schools.

VodkaPundit says parents should keep their kids home from school next Tuesday rather than subject them to the Obama Mass Indoctrination.

I oppose public schools, period. And none of my kids have attended a public school since my wife and I pulled our daughter (now 20) out of the system after kindergarten.

As for prayer, every public-school student should be praying, “Please, God, get me out of this public school.”

Ben Franklin was a third-grade dropout. Neither Thomas Jefferson nor George Washington ever attended a public school. And although Jefferson once proposed a public school system for Virginia — a plan that the thrifty Virginia Assembly wisely rejected, except for establishing the University in Charlottesville — neither Jefferson nor any other of the Founding Fathers ever endorsed compulsory public education.

Let’s begin this discourse by clarifying our terms: They are government schools, not “public schools.” They belong to the government, not to you, the citizen — a fact you’ll quickly discover if, as a parent, you ever disagree with a school administrator.

John F. Kennedy Quote of the Week

“By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fear of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the 2nd amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration…in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the 2nd Amendment will always be important. … If we make peaceful revolution impossible, we make violent revolution inevitable.” –John F. Kennedy
