From my experiences, it has come to mean stripping my rights away in favor of whichever group whines the most.

Not a peep from anyone back when he was struggling in the polls. I would have found the allegations a little more believable if they happened as he entered the race and before the surge. Now I only see them as a smear campaign orchestrated by the Democrats to get rid of someone that could easily beat Obama.

I say go for it. The schools waste more days than that with frivolous classes, teaching lefty agendas in other classes and just plain laziness on the part of many teachers and administrators. The kids aren't learning much of anything useful in the public indoctrination centers anyway so four less days won't really matter.

They're the left and history more than proves how the left behaves when they aren't getting their way.

The left is allowed to break the law and everyone else is just supposed to accept it but watch out if the right even looks the wrong direction as the left throws the full power of the government on them.

It sounds like it is the Director of Communications at the Governor's office that is having more of a problem with it than anyone else given the various stories I've read on this.

The states will still be screaming how poor they are because they'll spend the windfall ten times over on pure pork before they even receive a penny of the tax.

The elected officials in many of the protest cities ignored their own laws to support the protest and catered to the whims of the new century hippies. Now it's coming back to bite them.

The Republicans in Congress always give into what the Democrats want eventually just to "get along". Each and every time this happens, it makes me want term limits on these idiots even more than I did before.
