Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell said that his No.1 priority is the defeat of Pres. Obama, two years ago. . .has there been any bo-partisanship in the Congress since then? It is apparent that the Republicans are content to destroy this country rather than join in resolving problems. . . they vore in "lock-step" with their leadership. And, when was it decided that it takes 60 votes to pass legislation in the Senate. . .what happened to majority rule and democracy?
Vouchers are only available to students in school districts in "Academic Emergency" . . .I do't think the Poland Schools are impacted by students on vouchers leaving to attend alternative schools!
1. The students did not initiate any of the action resulting in recriminations, they planned none of it and brought nothing with them to facilitate it.
2. The actions of the of the parents lacked criminal intent.
As a result the students suffered. . .the celebration and adulation of winning a state title was taken from them by actions beyond their control. While the Mooney Haters glory in the subsequent events. . the reality is clear.
Victim of a broadcast media lynching. Tressel was fired for not notifying his superior, Paterno did. . . Been no trials yet but guilt has already been resolved. Fired Paterno but the GA/Coach who witnessed it is NOT???? Rationale???
Well maybe we should close all the parochial schools and let Kasich figure out how to pay the cost to educate them. What does the state save on each kid now $7-8 -9000. Or, just give them back their tax dollars to educate their own kid, as they do in Canada and Europe.
If the oil companies make.09 cents a gallon, I am the Madhatter! How much do they charge as "expenses" on their taxes, when they buy from companies they own. I'm an accoutant, when you hear of companies not paying taxesm it is because the tax laws allow them to "buy" from themselves and ceate a deductible expense Oil companies, setup drilling and service companies they own, buy from and then overcharge. . .getting the revenue down to a smaller company in a lower tax bracket. . .Get real! And, the oil depletion allowance that is another story. The U.S. oil reserves are second only to Saudi Arabia and our gas reserves are the largest in the world. Our laws ae setup to reduce access to those reserves and artificially force the price up on the consumer---in effect "taxing" the consumer, and profiting the oil company. They own Congress and protect themselves first!
It is dejavu all over again. . .remember the thousands they spent to landscape the tracks, then they spent money taking the "landscaping" out when it became unsightly. . . Hmmm, very interesting, We are back at square one and have spent a lot of money getting there!
Creatd 23 million jobs and paid the debt down. . . name 1 Republican that did. As far as his private life, so be it FDR,JFK, LBJ, Ike, Harding. We pay them to be president, not saints!
falconeddy, he is trying to tax the rich. . .the republicans are blocking that. If we went back to the tax rates of the Clinton era, their would be no debt. Clinton created 23 million jobs and paid on the debt. . .we had a surplus, until "W" got in and took care of his "fat cats" and oil companies and put us into two expensive wars. Remember when Iraqi oil was going to pay the cost, rfight, they are selling it to the Chinese and we fought and paid for their "right" to do so!
