On his Thursday show, Rush Limbaugh raised the question whether President-elect Obama's nominee for Secretary of Education, Chicago public school chief Arne Duncan, will trust parents with their children's education, or will take steps to eliminate homeschooling. The comment was part of a promotional announcement for the conservative Heritage Foundation's new website, "Ask Heritage".
Attempts to access the website during and after the program were unsuccessful until Friday night. The most relevant item posted there was Dan Lips' article, "Key Questions for Arne Duncan, Nominee for Secretary of U.S. Department of Education"; in it, he praises Duncan's record supporting local leadership and flexibility in administration of the public schools, but still asks how much support he is willing to give parents who want to choose their child's school.
Even this is quite far from a statement on home education, so it seems Limbaugh's comment was nothing more than a rhetorical question, after all.
