The public school establishment hates homeschoolers

That's because they can't control them with liberal brainwashing...but, you all already knew that.

"The public school establishment hates homeschoolers"

They hate us for so many reasons.

First and foremost, they hate us because we do what they can't: educate our children.

Yet another indication of the pure insanity of liberal ideas. Home schoolers want to be left alone for the most part. They are not particularly interested in engaging with the fascist public school indoctinators. It is insulting to be sure, but mostly just moronic. They do not get it because they "go" to public schools.

I guess if I think about it, in a way, it's a back-handed compliment to the home schoolers, most of whose students would never make such fools of themselves.

They are too well taught.

No doubt we'll soon see a "60 Minutes" documentary on "Homeschool Terrorists: New Danger to the Left!"

Produced by Michael Moore.

Someone needs to take those school district administrators from Muskegon out to the woodshed...

Does anyone still doubt that liberals are hate-mongers? They behave like spoiled children, but one a much more destructive level.

We use a cyber charter school but for .02 I'd go back to traditional homeschooling. (This is PA where the law is very unfriendly to homeschoolers.) Putting homeschoolers in the role of terrorists is so low, it's probably an idea they got from PA's public ed officials.

Thanks for posting this.
I doubt the liberal lefties are ever going to get it about anything. You'd think after the flap about SeeBS somebody would figure out just because we disagree with them we aren't the bad guys. Everything has to be PC!
