The basis for even considering education in the discussion was a
claim
that D's oppose "No Child Left Behind", and thaty they do so
because
if the amount of education were increased across the country the
number of people supporting the D's would decrease.

Which, by the way, was a valid claim.

Then according to your theory, the states with the greatest numbers of
Republicans will be those states with the most successful and
comprehensive educational systems. By the same token, the states with
the smallest number of Republicans will be those states where the
Democrats have succeeded on destroying the education system and
thereby protecting their base.

Care to offer some examples? Half a dozen or so of each would be
sufficient to establish a trend, rather than an exception.



Education isn't a statewide function anywhere that I know of. It's a
county
or city function normally.

Unbelievable.

And you used to teach? Who certified you - Wal-Mart?

JimH's argument methods...cut what you don't like and make comments about
the rest.


Go foch yourself John. What the hell do *I* have to do with this
discussion?

You really are an asshole.

Jim H- We really need to keep this cussin to a minimum. Cussing should be
reserved for those desperate moments when your brain freezes and you can't
think of anything else to say.
