Nancy P Lousy says tea Party hijacked

News flash for ya there Nancy, the tea partiers are hijacking the GOP. We are demanding a return to the core fundamentals of conservatism. You think we have anything in common with your ilk? Get real. It is your special interests in Washout town we hate. You can blow your Whore'n all you want, but people with a brain see through your BS.
I have no idea what your problem is Nancy, maybe the Botox paralyzed your brain? Assuming you had one.

Does anybody else see the same old crap in this? She continues her attacks, its like pay no attention to the movement that is sweeping the nation and making the republicans rethink their politics as usual stance.
Conservative Americans want nothing to do with your brand of liberal BS. We work for our money, and resent when you treat it like it is yours.
Nancy, when the voters of your district FINALLY wake up and send your ass packing, will you get a clue? I doubt it.

What about the parents?

The entire staff at Central Falls Schools in Rhode Island has been fired for poor performance. Given the stats coming out of the place, I would venture that is an understatement. 7% of eleventh graders were proficient in math. That stinks!
Some one at another venue today asked what part the parents should play in this though, and they do have a point. We as parents should take a larger role in educating our kids. Facts is though that after we have spent eight hours at work, two hours comuting, an hour fixing meals, time spent with laundry house cleaning, running to activities shopping etc, the last hing we want to do at home is play instructor. We want to have a little time to socialize with our children, play games, and be a family. teaching them math, geography, spelling and the like is something we THOUGHT the teachers were doing.
Schools have drifted away from the basics. Maybe drifted isn't the right word, since it seems like intentional diversion, or maybe thats just me. Any way, where once was taught the basics, reading, writing, history math, and science, we now have keyboarding, sex education, and a host of other curicula that is feel good junk.
We as parents have a responsibility to our kids, and we attempt to meet that by sending them to a school where we hope the teachers will educate them to the best of their ability, which should be better then we as common folk can do. It isn't though. Home schooled kids out score their publicly educated peers by a wide margin. We as parents do better. The trick there is that we also need to feed cloth and house them. In addition, some parents are just too lazy to teach their kids. Those are the moms who have a welfare check every month, an uncle or three who visit and spend nights etc. Nuff said on that.
What can we as parents do to fix this mess?
If we give up our day jobs, it means less for our families. That may be ok, its a personal decision and I will not advocate for it.
We can cut out our social lives and those of our kids and teach them at night. But what about during the day when we ar at work? Allow them free reign on the streets? not a good plan.
What we really should do is demand control of our schools. run the unions out of town. If a teacher wants to be entrusted with our kids, they damn well better keep that trust or risk being canned. We do not need the feds or the state telling us what our kids should think. We want our kids to excel at math reading and such skills so they can be successful. The feel good stuff can go out the door.
No more tenure. No profession should have it, if you cannot make the grade, be prepared to get sacked. Well you should, especially when the lives and future of our nation are on the line.
Congress needs to disband the dept of education. they need to break up the NEA, and make teachers toe the line.
Schools should be performance based, not age based. If that were the case, I would have had a daughter graduate at thirteen (or younger).
Control should be local, parents only. funding should be local as well. If a couple decides to not have children, why should they pay for every one elses?

The Military, Its a family affair.

Don't blame me, I'm just picking through the Sunday nusiance. Seems that AP has rediscovered that military service is a family tradition. It has a lot to do with the values we impart to our kids, and that our parents imparted to us.
I'm the bottom of my generation, youngest son of a youngest son. Most of my cousins are at least ten years older then me, a few are more then twenty. They, my cousins and elder siblings came of age during Vietnam, you know, the war where every one was drafted and dragged kicking and screaming to the induction centers. I don't know about your family, but all sarcasm aside, there were no draftees in my family. Those who served did so voluntarily, and there were many many of them.
Other military families I have met are the same. Dad served, uncle served, or some where back up the line, some one did. One tradition claims that no American war has been fought with out a Sgt York. They are proud of that claim and rightly so, but many families have a strong tradition.
Units like the North Dakota National Guard bring that to the front when family members serve side by side. Some times its brothers, other times father and son or mom or daughter. I read an article some time back about a unit in Iraq where the guy leading hte infantry platoon had dad for his batallion Commander, Grandpa for his Regimental commander, a brother commanding his artillery support, and a cousin in the air wing.
What is it that makes the diffrence? We also see families where medicine is in their blood, politics, and of course the old welfare family traditions. Is it upbringing, or genetics? Is there any more a patriot gene then there is a lazy gene? If there is, that patriot gene is in trouble, patriots die by the score these days, and welfare queens breed like rats.

Court day.

Had my day in court with a former problem tenant. Needless to say, we won hands down. The long and the short of it was that I rented to a couple who broke up. She moved out, and after I told her she was personal non grata, she, to spite me, got a PFA on her old man and moved back in forcing him onto the streets. I then filed an eviction action and she left voluntarily. I decided to go for the gold even though I doubt I will ever see a penny from this worthless wonder.
She left the court with plans to counter sue her ex for half of the judgement. Problem is, I have a negotiated settlement with him which should make her case moot, and since she will never pay me, he might, it is a joke. She seems to think that by getting a judgement against him that she will be able to collect money from him and pocket it.
Worthless is as worthless does. He was in jail prior to thier breaking up, and as soon as he was behind bars, she had a drug addict lover boy in bed.
She claimed I was discriminating against her and that I said she was too ugly to fuck. dang, that witch can read minds. I'd fuck her with Obama's dick, she is fat enough I honestly think you could shove Eric Holder in head first and not see his ankles.
Next step, aid in execution, drag her fugly ass back to court as often as needed. I may never get money, but she will never get peace.

Something to offend everybody Pt IV?

Family Guy beat me to it. I've never been much on that show. It amazes me how Fox news is the most conservative and Fox family the most liberal. Maybe if they had a few offerings with real people I might like it more, I guess I out grew cartoons a few years ago.
Humor is humor though, and while Sarah might find that show in particularly poor taste, I feel that since she is a public figure, she is fair game. better for her to laugh it off or create a teaching moment rather then throw huff.
Just remember the only thing better then winning a medal in the Special olympics is not being retarded.

A fitting statue!

That Jakarta chose to portray Obie as a child is fitting, the clown refuses to grow up. He continues to act like, make that worse then a spoiled four year old. Jakara though has bowed to public preasure and is removing the telling reminder of Obambi's lack of American roots. Three years from now they will have to accept less then scrap price to get rid of the ugly thing.
