If you know anyone in education,

you've probably heard how, 'No Child Left Behind' has hurt the system. Bush killed us in many ways, but one of the worst is his program to 'dumb down' the classes and force the teachers to focus on the bottom end of the students instead of the upper and middle, where our future leaders will come from.  AND, he tied funding to it, forcing them to 'teach to the test'. Finally, Obama has reversed some of the idiot Texan's damage, by making some major changes to NCLB. Most people just have NO IDEA how much that clown hurt our country, but now, as we enter the dreaded 'double dip' recession, (from which we never left), maybe some will start to notice just how much he damaged us, in so many ways. If you don't know/notice, you just ain't paying attention.

when it comes to those great politicians from Texas, nothin' beats a C student, baby. Just ask Dubya and his bud, "Liberty" Perry. Yeah, the dude has Liberty etched on his boot, cowboy that is. Carries a Ruger .380 with laser sights with hollow bullets, jogging in the morning, to shoot
coyotes that may harm his daughter's dog. Hey, don't take the damn dog jogging in the back woods, Ricky.
As Maureen Dowd so well stated,".....the right wing of the party offers the Farrelly brothers Dumb and Dumber primary in which evolution is avant-garde." Notknowingness and the Republican candidates go hand-in-hand. Just makes me want to bang my head against a brick wall.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
