That's pretty much correct.

Yes, the Dept. of Education and everything else contrary to the
constitution
needs to be abolished.

god only knows why he thinks it's contrary to the constitution. the
tea baggers seem to have a different version of that than the founding
fathers did

In case you don't even have a fleeting familiarity with the constitution, it
defines what functions the federal government is allowed to perform. MOST
of what the federal government does is contrary to the constitution, so in a
way, you are correct. The constitution over the past 50 years applies
primarily to criminals and perverts.

again, where is this in the constitution? where does it say the feds
can't create a dept of education?

go ahead. let us in on the secret. you say it's a violation

prove it.

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor
prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States
respectively, or to the people.

Your turn, show me where the constitution "delegates" education to the
federal government.

Public K-12 education has not been *delegated* to the federal
government. Obviously the feds have influence over public schools in
some areas, but they aren't running the schools. "Delegate" has a
meaning that implies a lot more than is happening.
