Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

I Repeat: The GOP Wants You To Be Stupid




In New Hamster, they are thinking about repealing the requirement for kindergarten.  Here.

In Indiana and Ohio, they want to strip away collective bargaining rights, too.  Here.

Remember, the electorate said that the main issue in November was unemployment.  Today, they say the main issue is unemployment.

So, the GOP is trying to cut funding for poor people, cut collective bargaining for middle class people and cut taxes for rich people.

Also, we were told that Obama and the Democrats were overreaching when they decided to do health care.  Maybe I'm missing it, because I don't watch TV news, but are we having the same discussion about these actions?

Say it again, the GOP didn't spend enough time in the electoral wilderness.  They come back even further to the right than ever.

UPDATE: Class sizes in Detroit?  How about 60 kids in a class?
