You stole my thunder. I was going to say we are missing the real big picture here, That ABC is actually reporting on something negative about "The Chosen One".

Way too many people were asleep at the wheel while the DOE took control of their children's minds. Now you have a country full of people of voting age who were indoctrinated in the public school system and believe in the entitlement society as a way to level the playing field. We have a long way to go to get this country back to greatness !!!

" In this case the Citizens of Detroit have no one to blame but themselves."

And the entire country will follow suit if we don't get our collectives heads out of our arses and continue the changes we made in 2010. We must hold the course as these idiots will not go quietly into that good night !!

Doubtful, more than likely it will be the Republicans fault for not putting enough money into the public education system and actually wanting to hold teachers and administrators responsible !!

New Orleans has one problem in common with all other big cities that are going down the tubes, DEMOCRATS in charge !!

Or as we referred to her here in Louisiana, " Gov. Blankstare" !!

The loudmouth screaming about " this is our house" is probably from Sheboygan!!

Pride went by the wayside when all the free money started flowing from taxpayer coffers. It's very easy to spend other peoples money !!

Yeah, I have been a little busy lately. For the last year I've been working about 3 hours away from home and coming in on the weekends. The job turned into a long term project, so the wife and I decided to put our house up for sale. We got an offer on it this week so I have about three weekends to get packed up and move out.

Probably will continue to be hit and miss for the next few weeks until all of this shakes out. But good seeing my old friends still miss me !!

Thanks for the props. Always enjoy meeting new people, I used to be pretty prolific here but having to actually work for a living I haven't done alot lately.
