Is our children learning? Teachers don't seem to be teaching, not as good as the Japanians anyways. These teacher whiners are just a bunch of glorified babysitters. Let's see 24 kids times $3.00 per kid per hour, equals $72 per hour, times 6 hours per day (oh, like they work longer than that) times 175 schools days. Cripes they each get $75,600 per year already why do they need lobbyists?! Public education is a socialist racket born of Marxism just like this health care plan where the government now controls everything, and all private insurance is gone because of Nancy Pelosi's giant abortion gavel................ There is NO PROFIT in either education and health care if you believe everyone should have access to it. In order for some of us to have the best in the world some of us are going to have to go without (because some people are not profitable and that's what freedom is about, corporate profit. Selfishness virtuous folks, read Rand). An honest conservative understands this, he understand the truth of the corporate profit economics that Christ and Reagan talked about with the shining mounting sermon on the hill. And a good conservative knows his history (some guilt-ridden conservatives want their cake and eat it too by lying and claiming the corporate free market will voluntarily provide health and education for virtually everyone if the government just gets out of the way. Profits make the world work and "volunteering" doesn't get you any so don't believe that pap. Volunteer to pick up cigarette butts off the street like a green libturd fool and find out how much money you'll make) Read the constitution, walk the talk, saying no to your medicare and public education is saying NO to socialism and saying yes to the founding fathers who all agreed on everything because God made them agree about freedom. Saying no to socialism means more money in your wallet (and some of us will then be able to afford that fishing boat we deserve instead of paying for all these mythical people called the "uninsured" who we know are just "illegal immgants" looking for a free colonoscopy and public school babysitting while they drive around in their Cadillacs between chicago and minneapolis smoking crack).

Oh there's no trouble reading long posts. I simply don't have the attention span or the time to sit and dissect your arguments, which I believe is what you're after here. Sorry, I don't have enough of the precious resource of time to devote to doing a point/counter-point with you, nor would I be inclined to do so if I did have the time. It doesn't interest me in the least to argue (or even talk about) politics. It's lame and pointless noise pollution.

Jack ...Do you still think that after a massive 2,700 page "Heath" Care bill was passed last night, with an added attachment of the Government providing student loans, that for some special reason you will not have to pay your share? Do you still think these programs will be free?.... Where do you think all of the money will come from to pay for the plan for "change"? Why do you think your wallet is safe? Are you part of the elite group who designed the fundimental change of America? Were you promised a recession proof job? I will stop now since you have trouble reading long comments....

I'm not worried. My wallet is quite safe, thank you very much. And none of your caterwauling is putting me in fear of that Obama Muslim coming for my money. We call your condition "paranoia" of the unfounded variety.

No you didn't!!! You never make any! What an absurd claim to make. Your BS rants about how bad democrats are don't add up to a hill of beans, let alone make any valid points. You make fewer legitimate points in these comments than anybody else.

At least I make a point versus your no wind comment Jack M. How about you tell us how the take over of our banks, schools, health care, energy and auto industry is going to keep our freedom? How about you tell us all how the great Obama is going to pay for his fundimental change of America?
