| Mrs. Greg, I got confused on vouchers. Homeschoolers want them. Since I am in charter school, our money gets sent to the Colorado Virtual Academy that pays for my computer, printer, internet, etc. But, if you do "true" homeschool, you have to pay your taxes to the local district. Basically, vouchers give Mom HER OWN money BACK so that she can send me to school however she pleases. However, the teachers unions are against vouchers because it sucks money away from them. Obama is in the pocket for the teachers' unions, hence one more reason I don't like him. But just like anything else, we're up against a national committee of many, many thousands of people who are lobbying for what they want.

Exactly - The teachers union, just like many college administrators, behave as if the schools only exist to give them a salary. Teachers union leadership doesnt give a rip about the kids.

And for the 34,874th time, a liberal excuses unacceptable behavior by claiming, "Well, he did it, too".
With standards like that, I can see why equal opportunity was the methodology used to select their candidate.

I never said Obama lied you did sandhusker.So If you feel he is a liar,the after what GW bush has put you through ,one would think you would be happy to vote for another liar.As your gauntlet of minions in here many times built up GW to be one of the best presidents ever.Your latest sycophant vision,even claims that GW is a liar......

So if what vision says is true,then GW is a liar (according to vision).....So if it is a liar you liked before and you feel obama is a liar now,then its not to hard to see where your vote would go....

If you can bring anything that supports your notion that I'm a Bush supporter or that I ever voted for him, bring it. Until then, we don't need your Socialist crap down here, that's not how this country was set up and how this country became the greatest nation on this globe.
I don't want a liar in the White House, and Obama has proven that he'll do anything and say anything to get there. The man is a snake.

I'm not OK with him, either. He was about my 6th choice, but he's still head and shoulders over ANY Socialist - especially a Socialist who will say anything to get elected.

Just got a newsletter update. Cowboy logic was "Speak your mind, but ride a fast horse." I think most of us could use that theory in here. 
I think I'm missing something but whatever.
