The trial court's reason for declining to order public or private schooling for the children was its belief that parents have a constitutional right to school their children in their own home. However, California courts have held that under provisions in the Education Code, parents do not have a constitutional right to home school their children. Thus, while the petition for extraordinary writ asserts that the trial court's refusal to order attendance in a public or private school was an abuse of discretion, we find the refusal was actually an error of law.
I love it. The court actually insists that parents do not have a Constitutional right to educate their own children.
I think it is time. I think it is time to pick our fight and pick the field of battle. There are some things not worth arguing about. This, however, is worth forcing the Left into a massive battle. This is an issue that is easily articulated. On a fundamental level, who is in charge? The State or the Parents?
The person who manages to turn this battle into an all out war could easily lead a conservative movement back into the political arena and defeat the Left in the most destructive way. I agree with Rush on this whole-heartedly. The Left needs to be defeated. This issue could easily do it.
Now obviously McCain is no warrior, at least not a conservative one. Therefore looking to him for leadership is just a waste of time. Is there any political leader out there that knows how to pick a fight and win? I mean it. Somebody with political clout and guts and leadership and the ability to articulate conservatism could easily turn this bone-headed decision into a ride all the way to the top. This is a great way to force the Left out from under their rock and into the bright light of day.
Anybody? Is there anybody? Please????
