CBS News Face the Nation Feb 19/12 Santorum talking with Bob Schieffer

Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum told CBS News' "Face the Nation" host Bob Schieffer that the federal and state government should not be involved in educating children, but rather parents should take on that role.

Yes, because all parents are qualified to teach algebra and calculus to their children.

Oh, I can see it now, children in the poor parts of large inner citiy areas are really going to greatly benefit from home schooling.

How many families in America find it necessary for both parents to work just to make ends meet, let alone one parent being available to home school the children?

Let alone the social interaction that children and youth grow from in attending school.

And who monitors 50,000,000 classrooms spread throughout the nation in private homes?

And just exactly how is all this going to be funded?

Santorum has done Gingrich one better than when he proposed to colonize the moon.
