You are right on with your analysis. Gray Davis is interested in one thing, and one thing only: raising campaign cash so he can stay in power.

Gray Davis has no interest in improving our schools. ALL CHILDREN deserve a quality education. Considering the dismal failure of our public schools -- the schools that are supposed to be educating the next generation of responsible citizens -- I'm shocked that more parents aren't clamoring for attention.

Republicans need to realize that Hispanic parents and white parents and Asian parents ... we are AMERICANS, and as AMERICANS we want a quality education for our children. The Democrats have failed in education. Now, for the first time in decades, Republicans are being recognized on the education issue. Why? Well, our ideas are better, but that's not why. It's because the Democrat ideas have FAILED ... and people are now willing to look at anything, and we Republicans have good solutions to our educational problems ... and I think that Bill Simon has the guys and determination to address them.

It's very sad that I have to not only pay taxes to fund public schools, but I can't send my kids there. My kids go to a parochial school. Why? Because I can't bear the thought of my beautiful little girls being asked sexual questions when they are 8, 9, and 10 (as happened recently in Palmdale), or shown a film on how it's OK to have sex before marriage and this is how to put on a condom (shown to 16 and 17 year olds in Elk Grove) and numerous other programs that are solely intended to subvert parental authority on moral teachings. (Don't listen to your parents or your church, we understand that all kids are going to have sex and we just want to make sure you're "safe". Whoops, got pregnant? We'll take you for an abortion, your parents will never know.)

Anyway, I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I AM PISSED.

Re#9 Amen. Now, Simon needs to get that message out to those parents...

ALL CHILDREN deserve a quality education.

More people are moving to private schools and Home Schooling because of the issues you mention!
