Truancy?
Child Labor?
RICO?
Get rid of the NEA at the same time we rid ourselves of the UN.
Sending elementary school kids on a door-to-door canvass? Hope Wisconsin Citizen Action Fund (whoever they may be) has a good liability lawyer.
The far-left libs will stop at nothing, will say and do anything, to regain power and control. The schools no longer teach, they indocrtrinate...this disgusting use of the naive minds of kids, is yet another gutter-level tactic of the left.
If I had to raise my kids again, they would never SEE a government school -- ever.
The state should close the doors of these schools. We're paying some of the highest property taxes in the country so these "I'll put you on the gov't dole" democrats can use the public education system for political gain? When are people going to get fed up with this waste.
Aaargh...
isn't this forbidden by some law? I don't wanna boast, but here in Europe this couldn't happen. To use (abuse) children not allowed to vote themselves for such a very subjective purpose, that is purely criminal. It reeks of the indoctrination in use in the USSR and the former DDR. This gives the US an undeserved bad name.
Cheers anyway, flaggie.
Lunacy!
Why can't we have school choice!!!

Charlie Sykes, our local conservative host is going bullistic about this story. Many Wisconsinites are calling in just disgusted. In fact, they continue the story on page 17 and after claiming to be non-partison, post a full page ad on page 18 bashing Bush. Take heart FR, Wisconsin loves the president, just a lot of hardcore liberal media downtown!
This sounds like a good excuse to Home School to me.
Normally, a curriculum day is on a Weds, and calls for a half-day. I've never seen this happen on a Tuesday before. I guess the teachers will be working hard on their curriculums all day.
Either that or going door-to-door for Kerry (probably in Southern NH).
As reported by Jim Quinn in this morning's radio show, Rendell arrived in a Kerry campaign bus, and there was at least one student with an anti-Bush t-shirt and poster, and an adult handing out Dem / Kerry fliers. Rendell's "congradulatory" speech to the band started off by warning about people who don't believe in big goverment, and ended by warning the kids that when they grow up they will not be able to go outside for more than a an hour at a time because of global warming.
Quinn spoke to a school official about it, who assured him it wasn't a political event. To prove it, he 'splained that students could elect to stay in the classroom instead of attending the event, and that they announced as it was starting that it was not a political event.
Can't find the article, but this week in St. Paul, Mn., some public school students were sent home with democrat campaign literature. The school claims it was a mistake.
Sounds like a form of slavery to me.
