Hurr.

A preview of the president's speech comes out on Monday. I guess we'll see what sort on "indoctrination" language is included then, eh?

Nor did I say that you did (although your blog entry makes it pretty clear you believe the "leftist" public school system is in the indoctrination business - an absolute absurdity in its own right).

But let's cut through the semantic smokescreen here for just a moment, if we might: If, in fact, you don't believe that Obama's address to schoolchildren constitutes indoctrination (pending a review of the actual text on Monday, of course), what, exactly, is your objection to the POTUS speaking directly to young people, urging them to stay in school and make the most out the opportunity to get an education? After all, is he not merely following in the footsteps of Teddy Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush? Given the opportunity to speak to the nation's kids yourself, would your message be any different?

The alternative to public schools being what, exactly? Strictly home-schooling for parents who can't afford to send their kids to a private school? And what if those parents have to work every day to keep the mortgage paid and put food on the table? Who should pick up the ball from there?

Please share your vision for educating the children of this country. This I've got to hear.
