    Charter school update:

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – Nearly 2.9 million students now attend charter schools, according to a report released today by the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools that estimates growth in charter schools and their student enrollment. U.S. charter schools are serving almost 348,000 new students in 2014-15, up from 288,000 the previous school year.

    Blue states:

    The report includes a list of the 15 states that opened the highest number of new charter schools and enrolled the most students new to charter schools in 2014-15. California led the nation with 87 new charter schools, followed by Florida with 56 new schools. Florida also had the highest new student enrollment at 46,000.

    Not all are successful:

    This year, 500 new public charter schools opened, while more than 200 schools that were open last year are no longer operating. These schools closed for a variety of reasons, including low enrollment, inadequate financial resources, or low academic performance.

    Lies from the always wrong wing aka klownservatics about the ACA are getting more desperate and futile:

    Keep in mind what Moore is claiming here. Obama promised that the ACA would reduce the deficit, and according to Moore, the Congressional Budget Office has a new report showing this promise was false. If true, this would be enormous news. In fact, no such finding exists. CBO originally estimated that Obamacare would reduce the deficit. It correspondingly estimated for the next several years that repealing the law would increase the deficit. CBO stopped issuing cost estimates of the overall law. It did, however, report that its estimate of the law’s gross costs — the spending on coverage — has been falling, rather than rising. Indeed, the federal government is now projected to spend less on health care than it was projected to spend before Obamacare was passed

    Stephen Moore is one of the most shameless hacks of the always wrong wing.. Little wonder Jim DeMint hired him.

    @4 heh.. When Bob closes up shop he’s going to make a beeline to be Nic Hannauer’s spokesperson for education “reform”..

    He won’t last of course. Forming education talking points by cribbing from Hot Air and the Gateway Pundit won’t get anyone too far for very long.

    Scotty “Superhack” Walker is one of an elite group. Those still cutting higher education:

    Since the recession ended, states have been restoring funding, albeit gradually. Forty-two states increased per student spending in fiscal year 2014, according to the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, although funding remains below prerecession levels in nearly every state. Wisconsin was one of eight states that kept cutting as the economy improved.

    http://fivethirtyeight.com/dat.....-spending/

    Why? Easy.. Filthy rich klownservatives want tax cuts. Hacks like Scotty want campaign contributions.

  10. 10

    The other shoe drops on the sudden HOLD on Loretta Lynch’s confirmation, despite her being praised up and down for not being Eric Holder:

    Obama said he was creating the group to “hold accountable those who broke the law” and “help turn the page on an era of recklessness.”

    Because Holder is expected to leave office soon, he said the decision over whether to prosecute individuals would ultimately be up to Loretta Lynch, the administration’s nominee to replace him as attorney general, if and when she is confirmed by the U.S. Senate.

    Why are klownservatives so desperate to protect those who destroyed this country’s economy?

  11. 11

    Ahhh.. The “wisdom” of klownservatics like Scotty ‘superhack’ Walker, raised on the Raygun’s “mourning in America”:

    Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, facing a $283 million deficit that needs to be closed by the end of June, will skip more than $100 million in debt payments to balance the books thrown into disarray by his tax cuts.

    Don’t ya just see Ronzo’s grinnin’ mug right now?

    OH MY! This is precious.. While Scotty ‘superhack’ Walker heaps abuse on unions, guts education, can’t find enough taxes to cut and can’t create enough jobs in WI to save its life, next door in Minnesota,,

    the FREAKING HEIR to the Target fortune does this:

    Over the past several years, Minnesota has become a testing ground for a litany of policies Democrats hope to enact nationally: legalizing same-sex marriage, making it easier to vote, boosting primary education spending, instituting all-day kindergarten, expanding unionization, freezing college tuition, increasing the minimum wage, and passing new laws requiring equal pay for women. To pay for it all, Dayton pushed a sharp increase on taxes for the top 2 percent—one of the largest hikes in state history…

    The state added 172,000 jobs during Dayton’s first four years in office. Its 3.6 percent unemployment rate is among the lowest in the country (Wisconsin’s is 5.2 percent), and the Twin Cities have the lowest unemployment rate of any major metropolitan area. Under Dayton, Minnesota has consistently been in the top tier of states for GDP growth. Median incomes are $8,000 higher than the national average. In 2014, Minnesota led the nation in economic confidence, according to Gallup…

    LMFAO when Jeb Bush criticized Obama as harming U.S. influence in the world! He’s just like the other two. He thinks the American people are fools.

  15. 15

    I think I know how to get Scott Walker to reverse the $300 million cuts to education. Just tell him that all the non children bearing gay people agree and couldn’t be happier because they are tired for paying for everyone else brat’s education.

  16. 16

    @13 actually Americans are fools. They will believe Bush, if it’s all Obamas fault. He’s come out and blamed the withdrawal from Iraq on Obama even the Bush signed the withdrawal agreement. And idiot Chris Mathew didn’t even correct the matter. Most Americans are too stupid to know, just because the troops withdrew under Obama and he always takes the credit. Yeah I suppose he could have tried to make another agreeing with Iraq that kept is there but Iraq pretty much wanted us the fuck out of there.

    BTW, now we know when Obummer’s sadministration cut and ran from Yemen, we left in haste, left classified intel out for the enemy to view and emails were shocking. http://insider.foxnews.com/201.....evacuation

    “When an embassy evacuates, or does a bug-out, all classified information is wiped and communications are disabled or removed and that did not happen in this case,” Herridge reported.

    She added that, according to diplomatic sources, officials were not confident that the evacuation would succeed and felt they needed the communication link to Washington as a “kind of lifeline” in a last-ditch effort to leave.

    Stumbling bumbling libtards in this sadministration!

    AP: 2,500 teachers punished in 5 years for sexual misconduct

    http://www.komonews.com/news/c.....l?mobile=y

    One report mandated by Congress estimated that as many as 4.5 million students, out of roughly 50 million in American schools, are subject to sexual misconduct by an employee of a school sometime between kindergarten and 12th grade.

    “It’s for the children.”

    Well, it seems Americans want another ground war in the middle east. Boots carried out feet first. If I had a kid that was thinking about the military, I’d offer a college education instead. Both the Democratic and Republican nominees will be going to war if they win. It won’t be winnable, of course. We’ll just bomb another big hole and have more people there hate us. But the weapons makers will be joyous and they are all that count. As for me, I think mankind is hopeless. He’s balled himself in a conundrum.

    Damn, corporate America is yawning at the ACA..

    The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — otherwise known as Obamacare — is putting such a small dent in the profits of U.S. companies that many refer to its impact as “not material” or “not significant,” according to a Bloomberg review of conference-call transcripts and interviews with major U.S. employers.

    http://www.bloomberg.com/news/.....o-wal-mart

    And..

    Yet contrary to the once dire predictions of health law critics and the business community, employers are not dropping coverage en masse and steering workers into the federally subsidized plans on the new Obamacare exchanges. In advance of the mandate finally kicking in, many are already increasing the number of employees offered coverage to ensure compliance.

    “The economic reality has changed,” said Paul Fronstin, a senior associate at the Employee Benefit Resource Institute. Unemployment’s below 6 percent, down from the double-digit days in which the mandate was first debated. “Employers are remembering why they offered benefits in the first place – to compete for workers.”

    http://www.politico.com/story/.....13665.html

    Well, there goes that “job-killer” bullshit of the trolls.

    Better late than never Eric…

    “I’ve asked the U.S. attorneys … over the next 90 days to look at their cases and to try to develop cases against individuals and to report back in at 90 days with regard to whether or not they think they’re going to be able to successfully bring criminal and or civil cases against those individuals,” Holder said in a speech at the National Press Club Tuesday.

    The timing is interesting.. Maybe just in time to stem some of the flow of bankster money to Republicans???

    Oh well, the R’s have put Lorretta Lynch’s confirmation on hold till March and who knows how long after that – Holder might just have to stay put! I LOVE THIS!

    Big banks didn’t fund the Obummer trough it’s those elites…..

    Together, 769 elites are directing at least $186,500,000 for Obama’s re-election efforts — money that has gone into the coffers of his campaign as well as the Democratic National Committee..

    @50 It’s no secret that trial lawyers are the Democratic Party’s biggest funders. That’s why Republicans try so hard to put them out of business with “tort reform.” But the real issue for ordinary citizens is whether innocent people hurt by the negligence of others should have recourse in the courts against those who harmed them. Democrats say yes. Republicans say no.

  53. 53

    @50 (continued) It’s also no secret that Obama’s two presidential campaigns received heavy financial backing from Wall Street. That’s why he staffed his administration with Wall Streeters, his policies are so conservative, and no bankers have gone to jail. They bought themselves “Get Out Of Jail” cards. There’s also another reason why Wall Street spent hundreds of millions to elect and re-elect Obama: Because the GOP’s disastrous economic policies and catastrophically incompetent management of the economy was very bad for Wall Street.

  54. 54

    @50 (continued) The financial support from business isn’t surprising, either. Obama is a very pro-business president. He’s given them the trade policies they want, the immigration policies they want, the corporate tax policies they want, and he’s done very little beyond lip service for labor. Big business loves big government, cheap immigrant labor, bailouts, the Fed’s monetary stimulus and suppression of interest rates, and loves Obama too, but they can’t say so in the Republican social circles they inhabit.

  55. 55

    @50 (continued) Hollywood probably doesn’t need to be explained; it wasn’t the Democrats who conducted the Hollywood witch hunts of the 1950s that ravaged the film studios looking for closet “communists.” The folks who run that industry have long memories.

    As for realtors, all you have to do is look at what home prices were when Bush left office, and look at what they are now, and you’ll understand why realtors support Obama, too.

  56. 56

    @50 (continued) If Obama’s bundlers raised 10 times as much as Romney’s bundlers, maybe it’s because the people who have enough money to buy politicians trusted Obama 10 times more than they trusted Romney. After all, the banks are solvent, the economy is growing, corporate profits are strong, the stock market is soaring, what is there not to like? Sure, the corporate types throw out some obligatory rhetoric about “socialism,” but they’re quite content with how things are going with Obama in charge. If I were a Republican, I’d vote for Obama simply because I’m much richer today than I was in 2009, just like everyone else who owns stock investments.

    Sorry village idiot troll, your worthless hijack can’t erase the FACT that you and beloved Republican crew spent more money for the loser in 2012 and were even too greedy to spend all that was raised. Way to go red team!

    2,500 teachers punished in 5 years for sexual misconduct
    Oh my god, that’s terrible. Let me read that article!

    “The seven-month investigation found 2,570 educators whose teaching credentials were revoked, denied, surrendered or sanctioned from 2001 through 2005 following allegations of sexual misconduct.
    Young people were the victims in at least 1,801 of the cases, and more than 80 percent of those were students. At least half the educators who were punished by their states also were convicted of crimes related to their misconduct.”

    “The overwhelming majority of cases the AP examined involved teachers in public schools. Private school teachers rarely turn up because many are not required to have a teaching license and, even when they have one, disciplinary actions are typically handled within the school.” So no data on private schools, wonder if Cheapshot Bob factored that in?

    Let’s see, none of the teachers in the article were from Washington.
    I wonder if Cheapshot “I like to joke about the looks of African American girls” Bob noticed that?

    The AP found 2500 cases in 5 years. That’s approximately 500 cases in a year across the country and Washington state is 2.21% of the country so that pencils out to approximately 11 cases each year.

    “In the 2010 – 11 school year, over 1,040,000 students were enrolled at 2,281 public schools across the state.” So 11/2,281 is a 0.48% rate of having a teachers punished for sexual misconduct in one of Washington’s states public schools.

    Any number above zero is awful, but leave it to Cheap Shot Bob to do his level best to malign the character of teachers for a half of a percent per school per year. I wonder he does that because many teachers are union. I wonder he does that because many teachers tend to be liberal or many teachers tend to teach kids to think.
    Maybe he just does it because it makes him feel he scored some sort of political points.

Romney received more little people contributions than Obummer. Obummer received BIG TIME contributions from BIG TIME bundling groups. The senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit understood Obummer had to depend on elites while Romney depended on the grass roots.

    Of course this was lost on absolutely neurotic low IQ monomaniacal moronic moonbattic crazed cretin yellowishleakingbuttspigot! WHY? The absolutely neurotic low IQ monomaniacal moronic moonbattic crazed cretin yellowishleakingbuttspigot is a klownfish prima facae moron! It has to be spoon fed. The operative words to the yellowishleakingbuttspigot skipped over…

    Attorney General Eric Holder said the Justice Department will determine within the next 90 days whether to charge individual Wall Street executives with crimes related to the 2008 financial crisis.

    There won’t be any effect to the 2016 campaign. The yellowishleakingbuttspigot is trying to get relevant and everyone knows what more of an idiot the yellowishleakingbuttspigot becomes doing that!

    So there was a few $million left over in Romney’s campaign from little people contributions. So?

    The Prosecution Rests Your Honor. The yellowishleakingbuttspigot is a moronic and idiotic as ever!

    ROTFLRHMBBAO!

    teabagging buttbusting buttbigot

    because this country is filled with too many lazy niggers and no good fags.

    Somehow Puddy doesn’t see the former. Are you the latter? Of course Puddy is surprised rujaxoffallthetimebuttnuthinappears doesn’t call you out for the language used butt everyone knows rujaxoffallthetimebuttnuthinappears is very stoooooooooooopid! Butt thanks for providing the link because

    Potok says sovereign citizen groups have attracted support because of poor economic conditions.

    Seems the Obummer team is more interested in getting jobs for ISIS terrorists than the “homegrown team”! Even the leftist Chris Matthews tripped his circuit breaker on that! http://newsbusters.org/blogs/g.....-isis-idea The best line was from Lt Col Ralph Peters…

    “Marie Harf is exhibit A for the comprehensive failure of the U.S. educational system. That woman has a masters degree in international relations from the University of Virginia. Moms and dads, save your money. Now what was saying today about jobs, terrorists just need jobs? Then we give them union cards and a path to citizenship? I mean, Osama bin Laden was wealthy. Major [Nidal] Hasan, the Ft. Hood butcher – he had a job as I recall. He was a Major in the Army. Do you think the, the guy in Copenhagen, just last weekend, when he pulled the trigger, trying to kill a cartoonist and as many other Danes as he could, was he screaming ‘jobs, jobs, jobs?’ No, he was screaming ‘Allahu Akbar!’ I mean this is sheer idiocy!

    But the other thing she said, in the same interview is ‘we can’t kill our way out of a war.’ Hey Marie! War is about killing! You get out of wars by killing enough of the other guys so that they either quit, or they’re gone, they’re dead, they’re gone, they’re finished!”

    A blonde moment for Harf? Well she came to the discussion as a DUMMOCRETIN!

    BTW worf is factually challenged! ROTFLRHMBBAO!

    @68 poor economic conditions – aren’t you kidding, isn’t the Republican mantra that the people are too lazy, don’t want to work, and don’t want to pay taxes, are nothing but takers.

    Shouldn’t you be holding them accountable?

    Is that acceptable reason to be a terrorist? I think it is more than just economics.

    So I guess everything the President and every stupid liberal is saying about ISIS – it is an economic condition prolem amongst Muslims? Are you buying into that completely?

    How about taking up Religious Fanaticals for the problem, similiar to the modern day Christians gong backwards to bigotry?

  70. 70

    Puffys beliefs.

    Poor economic conditions due to failed liberal policies creates rebellious right wing terrorists, but poor economic conditions in Arab country can’t lead to rebellious right wing muslims.

    Muslims are terrorists because they are right wing religious radicals, but American right wing radical religious people cause no scurge.

    Right on Bro!

    @57 “You are the apologist for Obummer’s money and the money men behind it!”

    That’s right. Somebody’s got to do it. The Republicans don’t need me; they’ve got you.

    I won’t argue with that, given that you wrote it.

    @57 “Butt, if someone has a brain, the BULLSHITTIUM is easily identified!The first one is trial lawyers want their cut of 33% or more and tort reform kills their cut!”

    You expect lawyers to work for free, and you claim to have a brain?

    @63 “Silly Bob calls TWO TERM President Obama, “President Goldman Sachs”. HAHAHAHAHAHA!”

    That’s not entirely silly, but I won’t turn down the $1,600 that I made in the stock market this morning. One of the money reasons I vote for Democrats is because stocks always do better under Democratic administrations.

  76. 76

    @75 should read “one of the many reasons.” There was a distraction while I was typing.

    @64 “Any number above zero is awful, but leave it to Cheap Shot Bob to do his level best to malign the character of teachers for a half of a percent per school per year.”

    That’s actually half a percent of the schools, not half a percent of the teachers or half a percent of the students. If you assume an average of about 50 teachers per school (I’m just guessing) it becomes 1/100th of 1 percent of the teachers, or 1 of every 10,000 teachers.

    There’s an adjective that can be applied to an attorney worth a million dollars at the end of his or her career.

    “Unsuccessful.”

    @ 79

    Well, it could be that.

    Or general disgust with a guy who, having failed to convince anyone that he’s the smartest in the room, has been making ad nauseum, pathetic, failed efforts to persuade others that he’s among the richest.

    Probably 15 or so years ago I read something – Seattle Times, I think – that said there were 55,000 millionaires in the Puget Sound region. Sure, there have been a couple of recessions but there’s been very nice recovery for those who have had the wherewithal to invest. I’d guess there are probably 75,000 millionaires in this area these days.

    And RR’s probably 74,997 on that list.

    Anyone with the wisdom to put $40 per paycheck into a retirement account beginning in his/her early 20’s is a millionaire come retirement time. It’s not intelligence, it’s not rocket science.

  81. 81

    @78 I was a big spender. I frittered away the millions I made as a state employee on fast cars, fast women, expensive restaurants, fancy wines, sparkly diamonds, mansions, spas, and European vacations.

  82. 82

    @80 “there are probably 75,000 millionaires in this area these days.”

    Then what’s the beef with paying those who wait on them $15 an hour? It sure sounds like our local economy can afford it.

  83. 83

    @80 “Anyone with the wisdom to put $40 per paycheck into a retirement account beginning in his/her early 20’s” would have $1 million in just 480 years at today’s zero interest rates.

    Of course, s/he could get to $1 million sooner if s/he figured out how to earn a return on his/her money and reinvested it so it would compound.

    Using a free online compounding calculator, I get $1 million in 40 years, with a savings rate of $2,080 a year ($40 a week), at a 10% rate of return.

    I agree it’s possible, and I also agree it’s not “intelligence” or “rocket science,” but anybody who can consistently produce 10% returns, year after year, for 40 consecutive years, probably won’t have to work in the kind of job where you set aside $40 a week for your old age.

    Some time ago, another troll made fun of me for saying I can make 8% a year in the stock market. Well, he was right and I was wrong, I didn’t make 8% in 2012, 2013, or 2014. In those three years, my investment account made 8.9%, 27.4%, and 10.1%, respectively. I don’t have numbers handy for our IRAs, but they’ve underperformed recently, following a spectacular initial run during which they multiplied by a factor of 13 times over a 20-year period, for an average gain of roughly 64% per year. But it’s not as easy now as it was then. I got in early in a lot of software technologies.

  85. 85

    As for this year, I’m making about 21% annualized so far, but I don’t think that’ll hold up through the whole year. I’ll be happy to make 10% this year.

  86. 86

    So yeah, Doctor Bob is onto something: Putting a few dollars into the right investments when you’re young is kind of like putting two rabbits into a cage; as long as they’re one male and one female, it isn’t rocket science and doesn’t require intelligence, just patience and with the help of compounding you’ll eventually have more rabbits than you know what to do with, even if cars and falcons get some of them.
