Education: March 2010 Archives

I get a kick out of watching Gabriel process new things. That's why this article had me nodding and smiling the whole way.

We love taking the little guy on trips because it's like his brain jumps to a whole new level each time. Be it going home to Illinois for Thanksgiving or to San Diego to the zoo or just to the truck show last weekend, each experience gives his brain a big ol' jolt.

It's a blast, and I hope to keep on enjoying watching it happen.

Apparently all those "family values" and "abstinence" aren't working out so well in the Rethug states.

That bastard Don McLeroy may have lost his seat on the Texas State School Board, but there are still plenty of Talibangelical jackasses who want to destroy our education system.

These are the pricks who honestly think that Joe McCarthy is some kind of American hero. No, seriously.

These people have literally got to be stopped. Not in a lethal sense, but their point of view, their derangement, their flawed thinking and beliefs. Their disease has got to stop being taken seriously.

Yes, it starts with an election, but this is one in Rethug-ruled Texas. Even a possibly moderate Republican is going to have Luddite and Talibangelical tendencies, if not Tea Bag Traitor ones come re-election time.

We need our children educated, not fed fairy tales and lies. We want them to open their minds and not close their hearts. That's what the Republicans want to give our people: hate, fear, ignorance. Never forget that.

Stay vigilant folks!
