Libertarian ping.To be added or removed from my ping list freepmail me or post a message here
That is so dumb! Don't they have public libraries, anyway?
No one seems willing to put a large part of the blame where it goes. The parents. You can give a kid ten books a day for his entire life and unless a parent is willing to give up their "valuable" time and sit down and read to/with them when they're little, it won't matter. If a parent has the desire to read to their kids, books can be found at any rummage/garage sale or public library.
We do three RIF distributions at school every year. Each child can choose one free book at each distribution. They seem to fall into two categories: the kids that say "How many can I have? I can't decide!!" and the ones that say "Do I HAVE to take one?"
How about condoms too!
Or better yet, get them a library card!
Since parents can't shift themselves to take the kids to the Library......
(Or is that Libary? Who knows, since they cain't reed!)
I think I'll just sit right here doing nothing but post on Free Republic until the govt. sends me somebody to wake me up in the morning, be sure I brush my teeth, comb my hair, wear clean (appropriate for the weather) clothes, get to work on time, work, exercise, not eat any "bad" food, meditate, walk everywhere I go so I don't contribute to global warming, not smoke, not drink, not ingest any unecessary drugs, and watch what I post on Free Re......oops, gone.

ROTFLOL. Good point.
And whatever happened to the library? There's plenty of free books to read there and when you're done, just take them back; they don't sit around cluttering up your house. And there's an unlimited supply. Sheesh.
So how did the human race survive all these years? And where did so many men of genius come from all these hundreds and thousands of years without the current public education system? To hear them spout off, you'd think they were the salvation of mankind. I have news for them.....
Ping for Hoosier list :)
For those who do not follow Indiana politics, Democrats constitute about one out of every three people in the state senate. The likelihood of any Democrat proposal on anything being adopted varies between slim and none. [Much closer to the none than slim.]
Most important feature in a child learning to read is a parent willing to read to them .
MY GOD! Do democrats expect people/ parents to be responsible for any damn thing in their lives?
Yes this is so funny. I guess kids will just more clutter in their already filled with toys rooms...There is no way kids will read these books. Oh what is the subject matter of the books going to be. "Mommy had an abortion today" and the book will explain how to express you feelings about it and try to be understanding about what Mommy just went through. Oh Gosh, I just gave the rats an idea...Damn. This is too funny. I am dying of laughter at what books they will be giving out.
