My last post made fun of Repubs (imagine that), BUT, am not claiming the Dems are much better. They have their share of lying jerks who do nothing more than to try and perpetuate their own careers at the expense of the people they are supposed to serve. BUT, compared to the Repubs who fought and clawed so the Bush tax cut for millionaires wouldn't be reinstated (from 36 to 39% on income over $250K), then they complain about the greedy elitist teachers who are overpaid. I do understand why they are against teachers, though. Less education = MUCH higher chance you will be a Repub.. It's no coincidence that the top ten education/income states are ALL blue and the bottom ten are ALL red. The new Repub strategy? Demonize teachers, minimize education and 'voila', MORE Republicans! Kind of a cynical way to grow the party, but from what I've seen, it's sure not gonna stop 'em from trying. (Sorry to stay on my soapbox, but it just pisses me off ot see them vilify teachers and make 'em seem like 'overpaid elitists', as the hypocrites tmake it seem like they care about the budget, after wrecking it for so many years)
