Tenure for life is an excuse to get worse at your profession and likely a reason why so many schools underachieve. Christie is against that - as a fan of education wouldn't you want the most qualified and best teachers educating your kids (if you had any)? You shouldn't have to fork out huge amounts for private k-12 programs if the public school teachers are doing their best. We as a country don't invest enough in our existing teachers nor give them a lot of incentive to become one but IMO that's not tied to a particular party.
Have you noticed that when you have a conversation with liberals you have to constantly explain the most elementary concepts over and over again? It's like talking to a 5 year old. You would assume that some things would not need clarification but you'd be wrong 99% of the time.

It's tied to the party that won't kill the Dept of Education and is beholden to the teachers unions. :coffee:
Funny, I don't remember any Republican administrations gunning to get rid of it. :roll:

They have a government that has taken away a parent's ability to acutally PARENT by making corporal punishment = child abuse. People going to jail for spanking. People getting CPS called on them for spanking or yelling or punishing thier child. The nanny state has allowed the inmates to start running the asylum, plain and simple.

Both of those signs were in the venue, but not sure if they lined up like that. Could just as easily be real as it could be shopped.

The debt clock was hanging from the upper deck of the arena, so yeah it was shopped. And, of course, another to add in a long and growing list of analgrease FAILS. :coffee:

Dems and Reps both voted for the war. When Clinton and Gore were campaigning against Bush I, they were critical that Bush I did not take enough action against Iraq and Clinton and Gore pointed out the danger of Iraq's WMD's. When you argue one against the other, Dems and Reps both had their stinky fingers in the war.

Gotta say that the Conks pulled off a pretty decent convention all things considered - of course expectations were pretty low- be interesting to see how Obama responds and exceeds his performance from 4 years ago (and for that matter 8 years ago when he stole the show at Kerry's convention).

The Chosen One's halo will be gone, that's for sure.

Wonder whether Barry Sortero's media handlers will hide Michelle's azz next week. :?
