A good article over at townhall.com by Mike Gallagher on this subject. Notice at the end of the article who saw children as a powerful political tool.

This is probably one of the most important messages delivered on education out here in a long long time.. Moreover, it is utterly consistent with what just happened down in Georgia.
Of course, this message must be taken with a grain of salt as, after all, it was spewed by a card carrying member of the Ayn Rand Institute… and we all know that her atheism and so-called misogyny, which has clearly infected the mind of Thomas Bowden, disqualify her ilk as closed-minded, not to be trused, immoral and otherwise repugnant…
Let the cognitive dissonance commence!
