Obama Community College Proposal

Yada, yada, yada .. college for everyone paid for with more tax payer handouts. Unanswered is "where will these graduates work?" By all means perpetuate the liberal academic vacuum, and its overpaid "educators" .. and keep the kids off the streets, except for drunken Spring Breaks.

What a bunch of crap. More Democrat pipe dreams and schemes for spending the money they pilfer from hard working citizens

UM Reports REcord Enrollment

The charade of the value of a college degree continues as the liberal academic vacuum continues to stuff itself with naive guppies. The value of college remains solely in such areas as mathematics, science, computer science, medicine, etc. The liberal arts scam focusing on history, art, philosophy, etc only warrants a gamble by wealthy parents who can afford such a luxury .. and who pray that their babies survive Spring Break's drunken orgies, fraternity/sorority life, campus drugs, etc.

To tell the truth, our country would be 100 percent better off if every high school graduate was required to have a 2-3 year hitch in the military before any college.

Michigan Juniors Improve Skills

What a typical BS cover up .. ignored is the fact that if only 40 - 49 % of the students are "proficient", then over half are incompetent .. what a tribute to the state and the millions of dollars wasted on a bogus education .. Michigan is nothing but a hazardous human waste dump .. other similar geographic areas should be gathered up and dumped in Michigan and the entire area given one year in which to improve or be exported to some desolate country .. like Africa.

It takes more than money to educate .. dump the NEA, the current school systems, pandering to punks and the politics .. and build a system that rewards accomplishment and punishes sloth, misbehavior, absenteeism and the incompetent teachers.

Obama Heads To Church

What a perfect article for black Detroit .. but, let everyone pity poor President Obama .. now faced with the chore of finding a racist hate filled preacher to "ignore" while he rules from Washington.

Only in Detroit and other black havens could you find the term "bombastic" an acceptable adjective for a radical who curses the country that allows him to spew his hatred to eager black ears.

Obama's choices of "friends", confidants, advisers and cabinet members is proof of his being totally unfit for the office he conned his way into.

DPS CUTS JOBS -

And so, the DPS is finally cutting jobs. How ironic that it takes a financial disaster, combined with doing a lousy job, to do along overdue action. Up until now the foolish tax payers have funded ever more government ..in an area where failed government, like its major industries, is an ongoing disgrace.

The budget highlights reveal outrageous waste.. all at taxpayer expense .. and all in a flawed education system. A system which, throughout the entire nation, pretends that money is the answer to its problems. Between the so called leadership and the NEA, the victims are the students and the taxpayers.
