NEWS: Single Moms Are Destroying Sweet, Sweet Idaho

Could you provide some source for that, please? Relatives of mine teach, and would be interested. Thanks.

I too would like to see stats on this. I tried searching myself, but I only found home-schooling support and promotion sites stating this as a fact (so it's a little biased), and none of them provided links to stats.

Beside, isn't the main point of school, after teaching us to memorize bullshit, to make us able to socialize? I know some home schooled kids who were so incredibly naive about life (coming from a small strip of population far away from normal human life), that they were almost incapable of interacting with others.

Which is kind of how I always though Idaho was, anyway. *shrug*

IDAHO IS NOT IN THE MIDWEST.

You said you lived there! Do you know where Idaho is located on a map of the US?

. . . Christ. I need another beer.




Here. This is the Midwest, folks, for the record. Please note the absence of Idaho.

Hot.

And four (not coincidentally, the four most heavily-populated) out of those fifteen states are solidly Blue, and not part of Jesusland, at all.

Oh fuck, sooooooooooooo true.

Thank god for Necia for pointing this out, and thank god for Zarth for being coastal yet logical at the same time.

Yep. I heart me my Midwest. Or at least the part my family and I respectively live in. Okay, so we elected a dumbshit Republican as our governor twice now, and that sucked. But we're goin' to elect Al Franken to the Senate, so there.

What makes you think he spelled "choirs" incorrectly? We are talking about a right-wing nut, after all.

"You heard me! No spaghetti for you until you hit that high note on the Song of Solomon!!"

Thank you!

Idaho? Nuh uh Mr. Thayn . . .

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

YOU da ho!

Hehehe. I used up all my diplomacy powers the last time I had to point this out to someone on SG who was using Idaho to slam the Midwest.

I would say, "Gee, I guess they don't teach national geography to kids in school these days," but I'm pretty sure I'm younger than (or if nothing else, definitely not notably older than) a few of these people, and I know I had to learn in grade school where the states are on a map, so . . .

Oh, how I love to see Idaho in the news. For the record, I just got divorced in Idaho and it was a pretty simple process. To my knowledge my ex wife has not received any death threats and our kid has not been relocated to "Family Values Camp" just yet. But yes, the Legislature does have some real gems. Fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how you look at it), the general population doesn't pay them too much mind.

I love being right.

Any other predictions, future man?

hahahaha! right on!

And I love seeing Idaho in news from a year and three months ago!

I sort of agree with the hunger thing, as well. Not to starve people of course but like a PP said it would help ALOT if people knew they couldn't just fall back on government funded programs. I'm not saying we should take the away because sometimes shit happens and you need help but people who just sit around and don't work...ugh
oh and all that ragging on women. That's bullshit. I think if a woman wants to work then she should be able to...and that men who stay at home with the kids shouldn't be looked down upon or made to feel inferior. I'm a stay at home mom so I actually know how hard taking care of everything home related is! Anyway...I've gone off on a rant here. This is all ludicrous in the highest degree coming from government officials!!
