I do. He's a sleeper agent. Watch your back!

Defense is always going to be politically tough, but I'll be right behind
you. As for cutting federal education contributions, all it will do is
push the costs onto the states. I really don't see that one having legs.
I'm all for that. Education should be a very local issue.
The Feds should have never stuck their nose under that tent.

I think it's the opposite. The more local you make school control, the
dumber it gets. You won't find local control among any of the countries that
beat our kids' pants off on standardized tests.

Then how do home schoolers excel over public-schooled students?
Doesn't get much more local than that.

Most of us on this board got a public school education when local
control was the rule, and the feds had little influence.

Except for Cliff and a few others, this seems like a smart bunch.
