hmm... letter with a very similar premise appeared in the Tampa Tribune today.
I question the timing of this letter.
"I question the timing of this letter."
Right-on!
Check out homeschoolers - they ain't yer basic "progressive" families for the largest part. I suspect this is an attempt to set up the co-opting of traditional family values. Truth is, if a study was done, you'd find a whole lot more "progressive" families (if you could call some of them that) are FAR more into self-interests and careers. Didn't they, after all, invent the notion of the two-career family so that women wouldn't be cheated of achievement and the pursuit of their personal interests?
Most "progressives" I know a immature, self-absorbed idiots with a pop-culture understanding of the history, world and themselves.
