| Message | i spose dat a littel kre8ivitee will go along wae to making hour uth more combetitive in the glauball ekonomee?!? Come on - we have appropriate standards in place and of course education should be compulsory. The fact that this is named the "parent's" choice act and not the kids choice act shows whacky definition of whose "freedoms" are being "protected". Defeat this regressive bill!
