    I was surprised that Nebraska was able to pull it off, and make a conservative case for it too. I had thought the veto proof margin was too thin.

    The Nazis are trying hard to make this Country like Nazi Germany. Wake up people.

    I’m sure ISIS would be doing the same. We don’t have to worry about ISIS as much as we do the GOP.

    The Freedom people want no Freedom.

    Again, mother fuckers like Boob think this is fine. He’s is nothing more than a Nazi appeaser. He should take his doctorate degree and shove it up his ass.

    @4 To win that argument, the plaintiffs have to convince the Court that the Constitution’s “three fifths of a person” language was superfluous, and the Founders never intended to give the southern states any representation in Congress based on their slave populations.

  7. 7

    Let’s review: In the 1787 Constitutional Convention, the framers had to decide how to apportion seats in the House of Representatives. Their options were:

    Freeholders: This was the most restrictive option; only those owning land could vote or be counted for representation.

    Voters: This was the next most restrictive, under which women and children wouldn’t be counted for representation, as only males could vote (until 1920).

    Freemen: This was more expansive, as it included all non-slave adults, even if they couldn’t vote.

    Population, with “three-fifths compromise”: This is even more inclusive, as it counts everyone, but slaves are given a reduced value of 3/5 of a person for counting purposes.

    Inhabitants: This is the most inclusive, as it counts everyone.

    The Framers decided to go with population, with a reduced counting value for slaves, which counted women and children even though they couldn’t vote, later tweaked to give former slaves full personhood for counting and voting purposes.

    It would take an extremely activist, and inarguably partisan, group of justices to overturn 240 years of Framer intent, history, practice, and law.

    Louie Gohmert was an army captain? Fuck, that doesn’t give me any confidence in our military.

  9. 9

    @8 I served under some stupid officers in Vietnam. Although General Westmoreland had been booted upstairs by the time I arrived in-country, Westy was a stupid man, perhaps the dumbest U.S. Army general since Burnside.

  10. 10

    Turning to domestic matters, Hastert isn’t unique. He’s just the latest in a long string of prominent Republicans caught committing crimes of moral turpid. What is the pathology that causes the Republican Party to attract such people and elevate them to positions of power? The GOP does that consistently, so it’s no fluke. The explanation must be that the GOP is a sociopathic organization, or perhaps more accurately, an organization of sociopaths. This is the tent under which not only the Hasterts and Josh Duggars of the world gather, but also preachers who advocate stoning gays to death and racist killer cops. That’s abnormal.

  11. 11

    @9 I was drafted during Vietnam. I served in another branch. I don’t recall meeting anyone as dumb as Gohmert. But I served with professionals.

  12. 12

    I think the person who effectively will choose America’s next president is Putin. Most Americans want a leader who can stand up to him. Hillary’s baggage, and she has some, won’t matter if she comes across as tough enough to contain Putin’s imperialist ambitions. (It’s clear now he wants to rebuild the Soviet empire — same shit under a slightly different banner.) This also creates an opening for Scott Walker, who may be able to overcome his sins by walking and talking like a tough guy, which undoubtedly is the campaign theme he’ll exploit. I still think Hillary would beat Walker, but I’m convinced the 2016 campaign is going to focus on foreign policy and the threat posed by Putin, although our next big military clash more likely will be with China over control of the South China Sea, through which passes two-thirds of the world’s seaborne commerce.

  13. 13

    @11 My unit had some good officers. My first battalion CO was a West Pointer who went on to become a two-star general, and he was competent. His successor was a guy who rose from the enlisted ranks of the Korean War to become a colonel, and was up for promotion to brigadier general but died from Agent Orange exposure before that promotion came through, according to what his family has told me. He was okay. The vast majority of my battalion’s officers were captains; we had very few lieutenants or majors. Many of these captains were ticket-punchers you wouldn’t trust your life to, and I went out of my way to make sure I didn’t have to.

    This documentary about the situation on the ground in Afhganistan is a bit old but doesn’t seem dated to me.

    The focus on Marine Corp Major Steuber is very compelling..

    https://youtu.be/BKHPTHx0ScQ?list=PL413299DC95044CED

    It really makes no sense to be there anymore. And the conclusion?

    When the empty suit the trolls voted for twice went hog wild into Iraq, Afghanistan became a lost cause.

    I guess it’s a sign of the times that a pair of cops trying to rescue a guy from floodwaters in Oklahoma ended up killing him. He didn’t help himself by being drunk and assaulting the cop, but in the old days, the police didn’t automatically shoot people for that like they do now. Maybe one of the side effects of our libertarian gun culture is that police now assume everyone is armed, crazy, and every encounter with the public puts their lives in danger. It’s hard to argue otherwise when you have rightwing crazies flying planes into IRS buildings and pointing assault rifles at federal law enforcement officers at places like the Bundy Ranch. When the police came upon this guy they probably assumed he was Republican, armed, and nuts (lots of redundancies here).

  16. 16

    @15 A local TV station has identified the deceased as a preacher at Faith Bible Church in Tulsa. I guess that figures. If you’re right with God, you don’t have to take orders from the police, or something like that. Especially when you’re drunk.

  17. 17

    We now live in an era of summary police executions, just like people did in Stalin’s Russia.

    I hope this asshole realizes that if he is going to blame gays for all the bad in the world, then he has to also blame all the heterosexuals who support gay people, whether liberal or Republican (I purposely use the word Republican and not conservative because not every Republican is conservative)… He has to blame the two guys and wives of theirs (Republicans) that I had drinks with last night (co-workers), whom all know that I am gay. Since leaving the area for NYC, when I return to the area, we get together for drinks. And, hopefully this doesn’t sound like I’m bragging, but I’m kind of the glue that holds us together as friends; they rarely get together themselves without me being there, even though they know each other very well too and live 5 minutes from each other. In fact, I got them commit to take a trip with each other into NYC soon, otherwise it would have never happened that they get together. In addition, one of them has to visit NYC in two weeks for business (to the same office where I work) and who else does he want to greet at Penn Station, get him to the right hotel and then go out for drinks and dinner (of course on the company dime), but mwaaa!

    Again, not to brag, but Brian Fischer, as much as he thinks anyone listens to him or pays attention to him, is delusional and has to partially blame them too, and in the process he insults their intelligence.

    Now as far as my two friends – they accept me, and although I disagree with them for voting Republican, against my interests and freedom, at least I know or would like to believe that when the shit hits the fan, they will not put up with the shit of Brian Fisher. Or Fuckabee, Or Prick Scrotum, Ben “Bubba” Carson, Boobie Jindhal, or Nazi Canadian Cruz.

    early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit @20,

    Whatever… Ben Carson will be using that money to fund his campaign… $40,000 while Bill Clinton through his shell corp was extracting $500K for a 30 to 60 minute speech!

    Go Ben Go!

  22. 22

    Dickipedia: Mitch McConnell is a dick. Yeah that’s why McConnell helped Obummer get TPFT passed in the senate! Be was being a dick!

    Butt we like our conservative dicks better than you left wrong libtard dicks!

  24. 24

    teabaggin buttbusting BULLSHITTIUM buttbigot gorilla and his research locations @18 & 19 are hilarious!

    Butt the teabaggin buttbusting BULLSHITTIUM buttbigot gorilla seems to forget over and over what the Nazis were! They thought just like HA DUMMOCRETINS today… anti-capitalists… the left wrong progressive FASCIST mindset of the OWS crowd… Hillary Crime Family Foundation Clinton… Elizabeth Only I can Flip Houses Not You Fauxcohantas Warren… etc.

    From the same WikiPedia article Puddy posted where Hitler claimed they were anti-capitalist socialists!

    Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels frequently employed antisemitic rhetoric to underline this view: “The Jew is the enemy and destroyer of the purity of blood, the conscious destroyer of our race … As socialists, we are opponents of the Jews, because we see, in the Hebrews, the incarnation of capitalism, of the misuse of the nation’s goods.”[132]

    Hitler told a party leader in 1934, “The economic system of our day is the creation of the Jews.”[203] Hitler said to Benito Mussolini that “Capitalism had run its course”.[203] Hitler also said that the business bourgeoisie “know nothing except their profit. ‘Fatherland’ is only a word for them.”[205] Hitler was personally disgusted with the ruling bourgeois elites of Germany during the period of the Weimar Republic, who he referred to as “cowardly shits”.[206]

    FACTS prove the teabaggin buttbusting BULLSHITTIUM buttbigot gorilla is a moron and has 24 hour moronic moonbattic memory malady mastered!

  25. 25

    Butt worser @23, you claimed you don’t read PuddyCommentary…

    So @23 is ignored!

  26. 26

    @21 Well let’s see, that means Bill Clinton’s time is worth $1 million an hour, which according to capitalist principles makes what he has to say much more valuable than what you have to say.

    Living in a rabbit hole isn’t for everyone. There’s not much down here except dirt, water, and tree roots, plus an interesting array of earthworms and bugs. However, I keep busy. For example, I’m starting a project I’ve been putting off for many years — reading Thucydides’ history of the Peloponnesian war, using Robert B. Strassler’s excellent annotated edition, which I bought from Amazon for 15 bucks. Tonight, I got through the introduction and editor’s notes and explanations, which was over 30 pages. Sure, it’s dark down here, but we rabbits have night-vision eyes and super-sensitive sniffers that can detect things we can’t see, such as the shapes of ink blobs on pages. So I can make it out okay, even if the pages get dirty and wet. It’s a big book, with many chapters covering over 20 years of fighting between Athenians and Spartans; and Thucydides — unlike Puddy — has something useful to say that’s worth the time it takes to read and digest it, so going forward, expect me to waste even less time than I already do reading or responding to Puddy’s useless tripe, at least until I get this huge volume read in its entirety. It’s one of my biggest reading projects since I read “War and Peace” many years ago, which took me two weeks.

    One of the last vestiges of the Sea Land line, which pioneered container shipping, ceased operations this week, Horizon Lines. Maersk, which bought the international routes, has revived the name for their IntaAmericas subsidiary. After the spin-off, Horizon Lines bet on being an overseas niche shipper, and although their new vessels flew the Stars and Stripes, they were built overseas. Rival Matson, has a run to China, but they use their Jones Act vessels for it too. Matson just bought Horizon Lines Tacoma-Anchorage-Kodiak-Dutch Harbor trade lane.

    David Pakman: GOP dragged kicking and screaming into acknowledging climate change. Yeah Right Pakman…

    Yes Obumer bragged the .2% estimated 1 QTR 2015 GDP was good and upon “reflection” GDP would have been 1% higher but due to globull cooling… https://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2015/04/29/advance-estimate-gdp-first-quarter-2015

    2. Growth in the first quarter of 2015 was restrained by a historically harsh winter. This quarter was only the fourth in 60 years on record with three or more snowstorms sufficiently severe to be rated by the National Climatic Data Center’s Northeast Snowfall Impact Scale (NESIS). In addition, as measured by heating degree days, this quarter was the third coldest in twenty years. Indeed, winter weather likely reduced both consumption and investment, contributing to this quarter’s below-trend output growth. The historical relationship between weather and first-quarter growth suggests that weather may have reduced annualized growth by about a full percentage point this quarter (similar to estimates by Macroeconomic Advisers and Goldman Sachs). Also, first-quarter growth has been especially weak in recent years even after seasonal adjustment, averaging 0.3 percent per year over the past five years as compared with 2.9 percent for Q2 through Q4. This observation at least partially reflects generally worsening weather over the past decade, which may not yet be accounted for in seasonal-adjustment algorithms. While some output lost due to weather may not be regained, many forecasters expect that much of the lost demand from the first quarter will be diverted toward the second.

    Now that the real number was -.7%. What does Obummer do? Blame globull cooling… Even the NY Slimes can’t put lipstick on that pig… pig lipstick theorem at work again… http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05......html?_r=0 Oh noes blame everything else except the feckless policies of this sadministration since 2009!

    Remember, Obummer thinks climate change waaaaaaaaaaaay more important than attacking ISIS! Yessiree! ISIS What?

  31. 31

    And of course this didn’t make the Friday Night Comix! And of course this won’t be cheered by HA DUMMOCRETINS or will it? Puddy bets the vomit producer and Stupid Solution Steve are cheering this! We know what they think of my people as… http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05.....-blow.html –

    Roughly one in five black adults works for the government, teaching school, delivering mail, driving buses, processing criminal justice and managing large staffs. They are about 30 percent more likely to have a public sector job than non-Hispanic whites, and twice as likely as Hispanics.

    A very sad statistic. This is the outcome of telling my peeps government will always take care of you. This is the reason Puddy told PuddySons to get a useful and worthwhile education, something not government based. Puddy wonders if rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears drank the kook-aid and got one of them public sector jobs?

    @29, Yes your mind is really in decline…

    Denial too!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  34. 34

    Yeah speaking of Ireland… http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-eng.....k-32795373

    Well on second thought…

    A “gay” bull saved from slaughter and re-homed in Norfolk has surprised his new owners by trying to mate with cows.

    Which proves that the first set of cows in Ireland had to be lesbians.

    /sarcasm

  35. 35

    More of HA DUMMOCRETIN friends in action… They hate Israel as much as you guys do… http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-32920614

    About a third of the town’s 200,000 residents were able to flee before IS arrived, the UN told the BBC last week. But it said it had received reports that Syrian forces based in Palmyra had prevented many others from leaving.

    Assad’s human sacrifices to ISIS!

    Meanwhile Baltimore continues to spiral into the DUMMOCRETIN led city toilet! http://www.baltimoresun.com/ne.....story.html

    Justin Mensuphu-Bey, 23 — who also went by Justin Bey, according to court records — was fatally shot in the 1100 block of Washington Boulevard in Pigtown Friday night, police said. The last time the city had 40 homicides in a month was August 1990, when the city had 42 and its population was significantly larger. So far, 2015 has seen 113 homicides.

    Yes there are bad apples in every part of society. We witness bad leftist apples here on HA DUMMOCRETINS. A StormFront frequent visitor, and his psychotic apprentice, a reservation dweller, strange left wrong fanatics, a demented person masquerading as a wabbit, one who hijacks another’s original thought for their own blog, etc., etc., etc.

    @30 Another idiot who doesn’t know the difference between climate and weather. Do you hear people laughing at you, Pudnutz?

  42. 42

    @31 OMG, teaching school and delivering mail is “being taken care of by the government” and not a “worthwhile” use of education. Who knew? What an idiot. Do you hear people laughing at you, Piddles?

  44. 44

    Well, back to Thucydides, I have better things to do than concern myself with Pud’s Sunday morning ravings. He’s either not in church, or texting while the preacher’s talking and the choir’s singing.

    “Roughly one in five black adults works for the government,… ”
    You could ALSO view this as the government is required by law to be more equitable in their hiring practices while corporate America can use HR processes to avoid having to deal with their biases. Government jobs is what they can get.

    “A large part of this problem is job market discrimination. One study found that job applicants with “black sounding” names (researchers gave Lakisha Washington and Jamal Jones as examples) were less likely to get called back for an interview than their counterparts with the same qualifications who had “white sounding” names (like Emily Walsh or Greg Baker).”
    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....58983.html

    Ross said, “Every day, a black name resume is 50 percent less likely to get responded to than a white name resume.”

    “I believe the best social program is a job.” -Saint Ronald Reagan
    @42. Conservatives would rather black people were unemployed, rather than have a government job?
    I guess those jobs don’t pass the Republican Ideological Purity Test.
    Wonder if puddy’s employers have ever had a government contract?

  48. 48

    @25. Why? What are the core values you see your republicans having, that trumps liberals?
    Of course you squirt your squid ink and refuse to give your opinion.

    Kitsap Transit is going to test a Double Decker bus in June on three of their busiest routes. The photo on the rider alert leaflet showed the newest model from UK(actually Scottish) manufacturer Alexander Dennis, which has a clearance a little lower than the 14ft of the earlier model Community Transit uses on their Double Tall commuter bus routes.

    Kitsap Transit already has a Double Deck vehicle in it’s fleet, sort of. The passenger only ferry Carlisle II.

    The Difference Between NBC and Fox

    Bill O’Reilly is still on the air, and Brian Williams isn’t, even though O’Reilly’s exaggerations and fibs which much larger and more numerous. Why? Because NBC is a news network with integrity, and Fox is a propaganda network with no integrity.

    http://money.cnn.com/2015/05/3.....index.html

    So guess which network HA’s village-idiot-troll mocks, and which network he embraces?

  51. 51

    @31 OMG, teaching school and delivering mail is “being taken care of by the government” and not a “worthwhile” use of education. Who knew? What an idiot. Do you hear people…

    Puddy reads your screams of worthlessness! Nope you Dope! Did you actually read the article? Nope you DOPE! Once again the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit always twists what the article sez. That’s the only way that early onset senility can be covered up!

  52. 52

    Well, back to Thucydides, I have better things to do than concern myself with Pud’s Sunday morning ravings. He’s either not in church, or texting while the preacher’s talking and the choir’s singing.

    Early onset senility is big in the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit! How many times has Puddy claimed he goes to church on the real Sabbath, Saturday!

    Naturally stoooooooooooopid and forgetful in his later years is the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit!

  53. 53

    worser @48 leaves a smelly stain: Why? What are the core values you see your republicans having, that trumps liberals?
    Of course you squirt your squid ink and refuse to give your opinion.

    Squid ink? How precious worser. Was that an original thought? First all month? It was worser who claimed multiple times worser didn’t read or react to PuddyMissives. Now when worser is trying to make an insipid point, it’s on? Hence Puddy ignores worser retorts to PuddyMissives!

    Sux to be worser! See ya!

  55. 55

    More BULLSHITTIUM from worser: – Conservatives would rather black people were unemployed, rather than have a government job?

    NOPE, we want blacks to be fully employed. Butt, it is progressive libtard DUMMOCRETIN policies have made it difficult for inner city blacks to have a useful education to prepare them for a job. How much is spent per child in the worst DUMMOCRETIN led crime ridden cities again worser? Apparently worser didn’t read the article either! This was discussed in the article. And it was also discussed whom ran with the power of the jobs!

    Until Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton make it clear getting an education is the way to an improved life, drugs and sports will be though of as the only way out!

    Police Blotter

    Writing up police reports is a job often given to cub reporters. It sounds mundane, but done right, is high art. The idea is to make it fun to read, and the trick is to keep a straight face when writing it. Here are some examples from a local community newspaper:

    ” Police responded to family disturbance after family arranged a marriage for their adult daughter.”

    “Three reports of vehicle prowl, attempt vehicle theft, and stolen car, all with blood stains in and near the vehicles.”

    “Arrested a person with outstanding warrants from a vehicle at 175th and Aurora. 3rd person arrested from same vehicle in a week.”

    “Someone walked into the Immediate Care clinic on Ballinger and died.”

    “Two women who attempted to shoplift alcohol from North City Safeway were pursued, abandoned alcohol, and dropped purse with ID.”

    Because NBC is a news network with integrity, and Fox is a propaganda network with no integrity.

    Golly early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit, no big time news org is going after O’Reilly. Only the 4th tier toilets you like to peruse!

  61. 61

    @60 I can see where someone who watches nothing but Fox might have that impression. As for me, I’ve lost count of how many MSM network stories about O’Reilly I’ve linked to. Or maybe you know what you just posted is bullshit and you’re simply a barefaced liar.

  62. 62

    Thanks to Rand Paul, the country that is second place to Ireland when it comes to freedom and bravery, is less safe without the NSA’s patriot act.

    Bald face liar? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Well, display those well researched stories from the very left wrong libtard leaning NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, PBS again! Once again early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit has real memory issues as these stories are from 4th tier toilets. Google “Bill Oreilly lying” as you claim and read the left wrong blather!

    @65 Classic Puddy drivel; if Boehner or McConnell farted he would blame it on “DUMMOCRETINS.” Rand Paul is a Republican, idiot!

  71. 71

    Rand Paul, whatever else you think of him, also happens to be the only Republican in the entire universe who actually defends our supposed personal freedoms instead of just spouting hot air while trying to push a probe up some stranger’s vagina. Puddy apparently believes this is a bad thing (now wait for the squid ink).

    @66 “Well, display those well researched stories from the very left wrong libtard leaning NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, PBS again!”

    Why should I? If you’re too lazy to read them the first time, that doesn’t imply extra assignments for me.

    @55. Where should inner cities schools get the money to pay for better education systems? Seems that any and every educational reform costs money and conservative block those. Puddy has referenced a link that may be been posted some time in the past decade, but of course, won’t post it again, squirting his squid ink of deflection.
    Rabbit just posted that Charter schools are not any more effective than regular schools. When schools and teachers are paid by how well the kids do on the test, they often start cheating to make more money, like in Atlanta.

    I think puddy has an inflated sense of how culturally powerful Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are. If kids see that their older brothers and sisters are getting well paid jobs, THAT is going to influence the kids a lot more than Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. But who’s hiring?

    “The reasons for this so far intractable gap run deep. Education is a partial factor but not the major one. (College-educated blacks, for instance, have twice the unemployment rate of college-educated whites.) Lingering discrimination plays a role. So do the hiring obstacles facing those with criminal records.”

    If it was just an educational issue, the college grad blacks would not be having a harder time getting a job. Why do you think that is? Is that also Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton fault?

    Bernie Saunders has some ideas that would help Black people get jobs and eduction.
    6. The country needs a real jobs program: “If we are truly serious about reversing the decline of the middle class we need a major federal jobs program which puts millions of Americans back to work at decent paying jobs. At a time when our roads, bridges, water systems, rail and airports are decaying, the most effective way to rapidly create meaningful jobs is to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure. That’s why I’ve introduced legislation which would invest $1 trillion over 5 years to modernize our country’s physical infrastructure. This legislation would create and maintain at least 13 million good-paying jobs, while making our country more productive, efficient and safe.””

    11. College and universities must be free: “In a highly competitive global economy, we need the best educated workforce we can create. It is insane and counterproductive to the best interests of our country, that hundreds of thousands of bright young people cannot afford to go to college, and that millions of others leave school with a mountain of debt that burdens them for decades. That must end. That is why, as president, I will fight to make tuition in public colleges and universities free, as well as substantially lower interest rates on student loans.”

    @65 haven’t you in the past criticized Obama for listening to phone calls? You hypocrite.

    Awwwwwwww Poor worser @55, can’t find the original links Puddy delivered and is now looking for a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahambulance! Now wants to engage Puddy after dismissing Puddy earlier last month. Seems that was a big lie huh worser. All Puddy’s responses are too dense for your squid like brain? Doesn’t like the answer so HA DUMMOCRETIN morons call it squid ink.

    Well you do have an opportunity to replay the PuddyLink… You can either do it through Google or asked the crazed databaze deala. Since you skip over PuddyLinks and PuddyCommentary, it’s NOT encumbent upon Puddy to regurgitate at your whim worser! That’s why the crazed databaze is there for crazed users like yourself. Grow a pair or marbuls and ax him! Well here’s a new link… https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=66

    Total expenditures for public elementary and secondary schools in the United States amounted to $632 billion in 2010–11, or $12,608 per public school student (in constant 2012–13 dollars, based on the Consumer Price Index). These expenditures include $11,153 per student in current expenditures for operation of schools; $1,076 for capital outlay (i.e., expenditures for property and for buildings and alterations completed by school district staff or contractors); and $379 for interest on school debt.

    Soooooooooo spending approximately $12,600+ per student doesn’t do what again worser? Hmmm… worser? Where is the accounting for this spent money worser? Baltimore’s average spending per student is about $3K more! Keep throwing money at the problem is worser’s response!

    When schools and teachers are paid by how well the kids do on the test, they often start cheating to make more money, like in Atlanta.

    Who runs the Atlanta school district? Conservative black people? Nope you DOPE! It’s libtards! Cheating and lying about it!

    (College-educated blacks, for instance, have twice the unemployment rate of college-educated whites.)

    And why is that worser? Did you dig deep why they weren’t hired? As a person who has hired others in large corporations Puddy looks for a specific quality. Can you guess it worser?

    Ahhh yes too many questions so call it squid ink. Standard silly excuse to high difficulty brain freeze!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    @65 haven’t you in the past criticized Obama for listening to phone calls? You hypocrite.

    So why hasn’t anyone asked Bernie Sanders where did the 2009 Porkulus and 2010 Son of Porkulus go? To UNION thug coffers!

    Remember this from Obummer? There are no shovel ready jobs!

    @77
    I think you are objecting to the public money spent on educating our children. Why?
    “Total expenditures for public elementary and secondary schools in the United States amounted to $632 billion in 2010–11, or $12,608 per public school student ”
    According to this
    “The cost of a typical day school varies from region to region. A range of $20,000 to $35,000 will give you an idea of what to expect.”
    http://www.privateschoolreview.....hools-cost

    So if public schools were equal the cost of average private schools, funding should be doubled. So already, you are advocating crippling public school kids compared to private school kids. Why do you want to cripple the education of black kids in public schools?

    “Baltimore’s average spending per student is about $3K more!” Maybe teachers there need a monitory incentive to stay and teach? It doesn’t seem like it would be easy to teach there. Why do you object to more skilled and demanding work paying better? Why do you want to cripple the education of black kids in public schools?

  81. 81

    @65 Classic Puddy drivel; if Boehner or McConnell farted he would blame it on “DUMMOCRETINS.” Rand Paul is a Republican, idiot!

    Talking about BULLSHITTIUM pellets… Rand Paul could not block the senate bill unless DUMMOCRETINS were there with him.

    FACTS smack useless early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit side their head!

    @77, When the only way to get a raise is tied to how the kids test. some people, regardless of voting democratic or republican will cheat to get ahead. That’s called greed and economic self interest. And what state is Atlanta in? A conservative RED state!

    Teaching to the test, paying to the test is destructive.

    Testing is expensive and schools don’t have the funding to pay for monitoring.

  83. 83

    In the interest of fairness, as in I’m a liberal and I admit when I find data that contradicts what I posted earlier, even if it makes my argument weaker. (Unlike conservatives, who never do.) This site lists private school costs as lower, but that is including church schools that have funding from other sources, which makes the costs seem lower.

    And what state is Atlanta in? A conservative RED state!

    Wow, worser… You excuse the Atlanta cheating scandal because it’s in a red state. Well then how come these other municipalities didn’t have cheating scandal in the same rED state? How come these other DUMMOCRETIN led cities played by the rules?

    Teaching to the test, paying to the test is destructive. Testing is expensive and schools don’t have the funding to pay for monitoring.

    Remember the lion of the senate Ted Kennedy. Remember no child left behind? No? 24 hour moronic moonbattic memory malady mastery!

  85. 85

    Wow worser you forget the previous arguments from above

    @77 I think you are objecting to the public money spent on educating our children. Why?

    Nope! No objection, just accountability! It’s always throw more money at the problem without determining if the existing cash stash has provided the libtard left wrong identified benefit! No benefit achieved, throw more money etc. Vicious circle of wasteful spending.

    Where did Puddy bring up private schools? Red herring train wreck always used by HA DUMMOCRETINS… Add something to the argument and then holler look at this… checkmate and the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit do that all the time. Is this an HA DUMMOCRETIN arguing tactic?

    Puddy noticed you didn’t ask the crazed databaze deala either. No marbuls on you!

  86. 86

    Why do you want to cripple the education of black kids in public schools?

    Another red herring by worser!

    Why do you beat your children with a baseball bat worser?

  87. 87

    @86. Would you hit a woman with a baby?
    I’d hit her with a baseball bat if I had to!

    If you didn’t object to the level of funding, you would be calling for more accountability AND better funding. But you only scream about cost. Every progressive wants the money to go to the right thing, and not be sucked away to corruption and greed. But we still think think schools should get more resources, not less. American children deserve a great education, not just the suburban ones.

    Private schools are a valid data point. When one looks at what education actually costs, people are willing to pay double what conservatives are willing to pay for public schools. If the public wants public schools to match the outcomes of private schools, they have to be willing to fund at private school costs.

    And I meant what I said, you talk a big game, but education costs real money, and you are siding with a group that is fighting tooth and nail to cripple it for all but the wealthy.
