And that’s the point. My son is likewise going to a Catholic school soon. I’m Lutheran. I can choose and they don’t keep me out.

Can someone please remind me WHY:
1. Catholics strongly supported Obama?
2. Jews strongly supported Obama?

Enquiring minds puzzle.

We will not send our child to public schools.

And I have seen the same reaction that Obama stated in the article. One person told me the State has a duty to educate the child according to its purposes, and that if I didn’t like the schools in my area I should save up and move.

She was a young, liberal, crazy cat lady.

My reaction to this article was that he does not see children as the responsibility of the parents, but rather tools of the State, and that parents should really have no say in how they choose to educate their children. They are part of the collective. While he sends his own daughters to an elite private school, did he not advocate the end of the school choice program in DC? If you pay attention to him, he shows who he really is. The scary thing is, like the person you mentioned, some think this is a good idea. A woman from my church who is from Germany talked about how the State gradually weened children from the influence of their parents. This is what he is doing here.

I still quote a very wise person: “We should have picked our own cotton”.

Isn't that just another non-Christian whack-job cult?

“But he doesn’t write these speeches.”

Excellent point. He just delivers these craptoids. We need to find out who really authors these outrageous speeches that appear on his teleprompters.

1) Catholics did not "strongly support" 0bama. People who self identified as Catholics in exit polls were almost evenly divided, with a bare majority supporting 0bama. Why? Many reasons, but too many people vote based on habit and 'tribal' affiliation with a party, rather than ideology. And 'way too many people who identify themselves as Catholics don't believe or practice what the Church teaches.

2) I'll let Jews address that question.

I don't think it's one person. More like a 'committee'.
