"Don't Say Gay"

[Victor Steinbok]

That's the name of the Tennessee bill that prohibits the discussion of
any gay issues in schools prior to 9th grade. But this is not why I am
forwarding this. John DeBerry (D-Memphis) made an argument in support of
the proposition:

> The basic right as an American is my right to life, my right to
> liberty and my right to the pursuit of happiness. Within that includes
> being able to run my home, raise my children as I see fit and to
> indoctrinate them as I see fit.

What got my attention was the beginning of the second sentence, "within
that includes..." that treats "within that" as a subject.
