And fascism comes to America...

WHAT'S THE 2 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS FOR CHILDREN, ...HEALTH CARE & EDUCATION

WHAT kind of EDUCATION will they get with a fucking voucher? it's BULLSHIT

Privatization = Fascism

What will happen to these children who are SCREWED out of their Education?

THEY WILL BECOME CRIMINALS AND THUGS! While YOU are at work THEY will be robbing your house, busting the windows out of your car to get anyting they can to hock for $5!

Wow. So what you're saying is the public education system (which is now run by your efficient, responsible gov't) is working just great. What can they get with that fucking voucher? How about a chance to go to a better run private school that the normally wouldn't be able to afford? Name one thing the govt does better than the private sector? You probably want Obamacare don't you? If you want a glimpse into govt run healthcare look at the VA hospitals. Google "Walter Reed" you idiot.

the Voucher system is bullshit, it's just a step to destroying Public Education. I think you have to ask yourself things like "Why do we have government" what do we want our government to do..., let me ask YOU , if you were to start over how would YOU design your country? would you say NO GOVERNMENT, no public education, no socialism, would you privitize everything? what would your perfect America be like?

F it, does nobody understand simple spoken language? He's saying: "If you DON'T CARE ENOUGH about your children to help them GET AN EDUCATION, you MIGHT AS WELL BURN them". As in: "Letting young people enter their adult life WITHOUT GRADUATING is LIKE BURNING them." That means: "STOP LETTING YOUR CHILDREN DOWN".

Never have I seen a more obvious attempt at smear/slander and character assassination.

Patrick's comments are ANALOGY. Are METAPHOR. He is right. If we don't educate our kids their future is horrific. All of you who think he should apologize are, most likely, the sort who needed the education he's trying to give YOUR kids.

Most of us have never seen THAT happen. Being conservative means you say and print things exactly as they are stated. Being a liberal means you offer a "liberal" translation of facts.
