  Can one of you please provide a reference for this claim that Head Start
  is "pointless" and "wasteful" and "rediculous" [sic]?  All that I have
  read/seen about Head Start indicated that it is highly successful.
  Even Bush has promised to allocate more funds for Head Start.  (Could it
  be election year shenanigan?  Nah!)
