You need to get out more, Melody <g> I've seen an equal number of
unthinkers in all parties, unfortunately. The libertarians are a rare breed
that comes without their fair share of nutcakes and folks who put their
brains in cold storage once they get political aspirations!

And speaking of politics and politicians, the last line of this quote is
where my thoughts are on politicians. Just substitute "politician" for
"government."

The 14th Bracey Report on The Condition of Public Education

http://www.america-tomorrow.com/bracey/EDDRA/k0410bra.pdf

<<
Denver Post columnist Diane Carman opined that the vouchers are just a ruse
anyway to keep from dealing with important issues. As long as people debate
vouchers, they can avoid confronting Colorado's lack of early childhood
education, its increasing class sizes and below - average teacher pay, or
Denver's dropout rate.

Carman quoted Bush tax advisor Grover Norquist as saying, "We
[starve-the-beast advocates] win just by debating school choice, because the
alternative is to discuss the need to spend more money." The colorful
Norquist is best known for saying that bipartisanship is another name for
date rape and that he didn't want to do away with government, just shrink it
to the size where he could drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the
tub.
