michelle joins us from indianapolis, good morning. caller: i have been teaching for 16 years. one thing that many people have been calling in and not really addressing is that irresponsibility of parents. i am a parent and i am a teacher. i think it is the role of parents that is never questioned. many times when people come to school and they have not slept or they have been up all my playing video games because peak -- parents are working two and three jobs, you can't hold teachers responsible for the irresponsible mess of parents. no one wants to address that issue. kids come to school with video games and cell phone spreaes. and there is a responsibility that goes on in the home. if i am trying to teach you something and you are sleepy and hungry, that goes directly back to what you are giving me to work with. i cannot teach you if you are too tired or you are not interested. teachers are not entertainers. they are there to do their job and we are not supposed to be entertaining kids and that is what parents want her a host: thank you. we appreciate all your calls and comm

indianapolis, carl. caller: i am a small-time growers to produce.want to comment on this black armor situation. i want to mention that the quality of produce that we get from foreign countries is pour. -- poor. it is shipped a long way. and not know what kind of pesticides were used. -- you do not know what kind of pesticides were used. you cannot get california grapes even. host: mr. hagstrom? guest: the caller brings up a big issue -- the question of consuming locally-grown foods compared to those that have traveled a great distance. the usda is trying to help local farmers. over the last 40 years in this country, we have developed a system of industrial agriculture which emphasizes the production at the most efficient levels. grow -- a lot of produce comes from california. there has been a the emphasis on production in other parts of the country. they are trying to encourage more local production again. host: houston, tommy. good morning. what is your question or comment? caller: i want to thank you for the history you have given. especially with

host: this caller is from indianapolis, on the independent line. caller: open the home day care of last year. business is booming for me. i'm a great believer in what the bible says about the barr were being a slave to the lender. i don't believe in going into debt. i have been able to grow pretty well without debt. i do it the old-fashioned way, put the profits into my business. i realize this is a low overhead business without much start of cost, but it is working for me. i'm also teaching my kids that. i wish the powers that be, government, would realize you don't need to go into debt all the time. you can grow slowly and surely. host: do you do your day care business of your home? caller: yes. guest: that is a good point, kind of a double-edged sword. it can be helpful, but once you are under and have these large loans at maybe 7% annual interest rate, it can be very hard to pay that interest and worry about your costs. if you have the savings, that is the easiest way to begin. host: this is dean, republican from idaho. caller: good morning. i

our next call for ali allawi is from indianapolis. caller: good morning, sir. i guess my question to you is everybody over there thinks the i reinstate the jewish people of israel, but i do not believe that at all. i think it is a possibility that the iranians as soon as they get the bomb will use it on you. guest: i suppose you mean iraq. i personally do not believe this should be the case. whether iran is armed and on which nuclear bombs is not really determine its policy vis- a-vis iraq. we have deep groups with a number of political leaders and a number of political parties. iran has an extensive network of influence in iraq. whether it is strange and further by the development of an atomic bomb does not really see -- is normally change the situation in iraq. there are large number of political allegiances that of their power to iraq. we need to be clear that the independence of the company requires independence and the stands from all regional and international powers to be able to create a sovereignty. host: one of the lease and the ideology of the sunni

it's north of indianapolis, a city with probably the best drinking water in the region if that's importantm. the pattern is too busy that would greatly improve it. there's another rug that should be taken out. notice that big console to the right of the fireplace. that's a lovely corner fireplace but that console overpowers it. that ought to get out of there just as well. there's another shot of the room and look at how distracting that rug is. it's such a simple, inexpensive change. if you look at the others coming up here, there's a great, huge kitchen, great cabinetry, brand-new. everything is good about that room but the floors are awful. you could lighten those floors and make that room sing. a big difference. there's the back deck. all it needs is resanding and a little bit of stain and it needs a few pots of flowers and we're good to go. a great backyard but the deck detracts a lot from it. >> let's move now to gray, maine. a three-bedroom house, this one priced at $275,000. >> this is a house that's everybody's dream house. a picture of exactly how you would think it would be to ha
