CALIFORNIA COURT RULES HOMESCHOOLING ILLEGAL

3/10 Update: The Governator is fighting this...darn. Just when I thought he was a total waste of a governor....and just when I thought things could get heated!

ILLEGAL? HOMESCHOOLING? Could this be about the BEST thing that could HAPPEN? I think so! Here's why:

Homeschooling parents are doing it for a reason. They're loving parents of kids they feel shouldn't be indoctrinated by the school system. They aren't particularly interested in their 6 year old reading "Billy has two Daddies!" and they're not interested in their kids having to call a friend "it" like the teacher does now because a 7 yr old has decided that he/she is having gender problems. They don't feel their kids are getting the attention they might if the teacher didn't have to spend so much time disciplining the other kids or teaching them English.

These parents weren't happy when they realized they couldn't send their kids to public school anymore! They were UNHAPPY and they have their reasons. And they're strong people with traditional values and I'm hoping they SPEAK UP for those values, lay them right down on the table, loud and clear, just before election time!

Schools get paid by the child....166,000 homeschooled kids makes a difference, folks..this isn't about those poor kids who "could develop emotionally in a broader world than the parents' cloistered setting" This is about the school system wanting the cash. And our kids' minds.

This could get interesting. OH, I hope so. http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/mar/08030503.html

Thank God there are guys like THIS still around.......

I was driving down Wilshire Blvd this morning and saw a NAVY RECRUITING CENTER with, parked in front, 5 of the biggest Harleys I think I've ever seen. Accompanying those enormous shiny black or navy blue Harleys were 5 of the biggest American vets I think I've ever seen. One was in khakis, three were in denim from head to toe, which, come to think of it, is about where their pony tails reached to, and another had on civilian clothing.

All of them were there to protect the recruiting center from CODE PINK

The vets had a large American flag flying from one of the Harleys and sheets of paper on their hog windscreens that had Code Pink written on them WITH a circle with a line through it! They told me they follow Code Pink around, but Code Pink publishes the times and addresses of where they'll be and then changes that so they befuddle these riders.

One rider told me "Last week they said they were coming here, so we got twenty bikes here, but Code Pink didn't show up.............so we just went to their house!" These guys don't 'befuddle' easy.

It was a privilege and an honor to shake hands with and talk to these guys....and well worth going around the block again and risking having parked in an illegal spot just to make sure I could talk to them before they might have left. I found out that NO WAY were they about to leave.

Can you run for VP at 18?

If McCain picks "Global Warming!" Crist, "Take my picture!" Graham or "Every 12 yr olds needs that vaccination" Perry, THEN what???? THEN WHAT?

I heard a Black University of Ohio student this morning said Obama was his first choice.....and if Obama doesn't win, he'll vote McCain for his "stance on Iraq".

I heard another Univ of Ohio student say "Bush had a great social security plan and they wouldn't let him put it in place...I'm voting McCain"

IS there hope? DARE I get excited? naaa...it COULD be Crist, Graham or Perry. Please, no.

Who's your pick, folks?

High on Mount Sinai, Moses was on psychedelic drugs when he heard God deliver the Ten Commandments, an Israeli researcher claimed in a study published this week.

Z: If Moses was high on psychedelic drugs when he heard God deliver the Ten Commandments, wouldn't the Ten Commandments have been more like:

1. You shall have no other gods before me...but man, those gods over there, the pink ones..hey, why is that tree PURPLE?

2. Make myself an idol....? whaaaa.........?

3. Hey, DUDE? oh...is that misusing your name? Well, it really isn't YOUR NAME, dude...chill

4. Observe Sunday, like hey...I sleep in and observe it on my eye lids...heh heh...cool

5. Honor your mom and dad. Hey, long as they're payin' the bills.......whoa.. IS that tree purple?

6. Murder? you talkin' to ME, dude? holding this heavy stone, THAT is murder, dude. Oh, okay. Not dude.

7. That chick is so hot, dude....commit adultery? if I didn't want to do adultery with her, I SHOULD be commited!

8. I do NOT steal....(that tree IS purple).....if I could steal you think I'd be wearin' this stupid robe?

9. I'm not lyin', man...that tree is definitely PURPLE! the one with the camel on that limb...

10. I shall not covet my neighbor's wife? Great. COVET? is coveting like...........oh, I can't say that word here. okay, dude. Okay, not dude. and yes it IS purple.

I'm just sayin'......... How do you chew on strange leaves and come up with a list as good as the real Ten Commandments? What kind of psychedelics was this guy doing when he came up with this hypothesis?

A BRIT? you SURE this is a BRIT?

If there were millions more like this guy, there really WOULD "always be an England".

A New Feature. DOES THIS IRK YOU???

3 things that set Z off by 8:30 a.m. LA time:

Do these irk you, too?: Tell me the truth:

1. Washington state had some big homes set on fire and they called it TERRORISM right from the get go. Why didn't they suggest the RICIN in Vegas just MIGHT be TERRORISM? "Feds are saying today there is no reason to suspect terrorism.' But, let some expensive homes in a wooded area get burned and some guy left an ELF sign there, and IT'S DOMESTIC TERRORISM! Damn those DOMESTIC American terrorists!

2. Muslim women at Harvard are going to get a few hours in the gym to exercise so no BOYS can see them! Yes, no men can exercise during that time. Of course, the school only suggests it's on a 'trial basis'. TRIAL being the operative word if they had NOT given in to this. Try having Christian or Jewish women OR men suggest THEY'd like a little time free from the prying and lacivious eyes of the opposite sex!

3. Students who must eat 'government food' at public and private schools should not be made to feel ashamed, according to school officials (never mind that the parents who do scrape together the little money needed for school lunches should feel duped), so, to prevent the children who might feel embarrassed, the schools are bringing in famous ATHLETES to eat the food, too! "You're not alone!" No child should feel humiliated, but isn't it deprivation and difficulties which have made THE greatest achievers in our country? People wanting to do better than their parents, people wanting to show they could do better? "BETTER!...does that mean you might feel pride, make a good income for your family, make more MONEY? Isn't that a rotten thing to do? And, if you DO make more money, you MUST give it to the government or the poor.....or just who do you think YOU are?" See a trend here?
Update: NOW THIS REALLY IRKS ME. A mother from the school in question called into a radio show today; she said "ashamed? humiliated? these kids feel none of that. They feel ENTITLED".

So.......is it me, or.................?? And what can we do about it?

If you haven't seen this, GET READY TO LAUGH!!

LOVE this! "Mandatory waiting period," indeed!! Have fun! z

After all, she DID win an OSCAR!!!

Here are the highlights:

Actress Marion Cotillard sparked a political row yesterday after accusing America of fabricating the 9/11 attacks.
The 32-year-old French actress, who received an Oscar last month for her performance as singer Edith Piaf in La Vie En Rose, openly questioned the truth behind the terrorist atrocity in an interview broadcast on a French website.
"I think we're lied to about a number of things," Cotillard said, singling out the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center as an example of the US making up horror stories for political ends.
She added that the towers, planned in the early Sixties, were an outdated "money-sucker" that would have cost more to modernise than to rebuild altogether, which is why they were destroyed.

Z: HERE'S THE KICKER: YOU SITTING DOWN? The article goes on to say:

Cotillard's stardom and increased earning power looked assured following her Oscar win. But after her outburst, in which she also queried the 1969 Moon landings, a successful future in Hollywood appears to be in jeopardy.

Z: Are you KIDDING? She just tripled her income potential with Hollywood!! George Clooney...? MOVE OVER!! Susan Sarandon? You've met your match!! (thanks, Ron!)

Need a Laugh? Enjoy!!

Two Mexicans are on a bike along U.S. 52 about 15 miles outside of Lafayette, LA. One of the bike's tires goes flat and they start hitching a lift back into town. A friendly trucker stops to see if he can help, and the Mexicans ask him for a ride. He tells them he has no room in the Trailer as he is carrying 20,000 bowling balls.
The Mexicans put it to the driver that if they can manage to fit into the back with their bike, will he take them back into town, and he agrees. They manage to squeeze themselves and their bike into the back and the driver shuts the doors and gets on his way. By this time he is really late and so puts the hammer down.
Sure enough a State Trooper pulls him over for speeding.
The good officer asks the driver what he is carrying to which the driver jokingly replies "Mexican eggs".
The Cop obviously doesn't believe this so wants to take a look in the trailer. He opens the back door and quickly shuts it and locks it.
He gets on his radio and calls for immediate backup from as many officers as possible plus the Swat Team.
The dispatcher asks what emergency he has that requires so many officers. "I've got a Tractor-Trailer stopped with 20,000 Mexican eggs in it... two have hatched and they've managed to steal a bicycle already .. I need help"!

Z: A sidenote: I LOVE Calvin & Hobbes

We should have our HEADS examined!

I have a sister living in London, Ontario, Canada. Her excellent physician has given up the medical business, quit doctoring, because of what's going on there in health care.

Please, people......send this video around. PLEASE stop the ridiculous rumors of how great Canadian medical care is!

Also, PLEASE stop the liberal who waxes eloquent about the excellent medical program in Germany! Something our American Pravda hasn't told you is that Schroeder, five years ago, begged Germans to buy private health insurance...they can't AFFORD to pay for everyone anymore! But our liberals want exactly that!?

Maybe the truth will set us free. If "CHANGE" doesn't kill us first.
