I believe that the US Average Ann and Andy care far too much about political figures' sex lives than they should. I'm a woman, a feminist, and I don't care about Bill's catting around. I wouldn't care about Newt's, either, if he hadn't made such a fuss about Bill's and tried to sell all that family values horseshit.

Many fabulous things and much good time with family.   I also got to relax some - and that is a wonderful gift....

I don't know of we should ignore the crazy shit or attack in return. I keep saying we need a Mighty Middle radio show that proclaims our pissed-off-ed-ness at the status quo and demands bi-partisan compromise....but right now, I want the taxes on the 1% raised back to levels they paid when the economy and middle class were growing....

If it made sense it wouldn't be Republican.

I think they frown on wandering UK beaches nekkid....

mmmmOK. Can I dust anything to help?

That sucks.

I missed something along the way. What does Mulan have to do with Sleeping Beauty and the whole fairy tale scheme?

I don't know how you do that. You can be even more abrasive than Howard or any of his buddies. They need to hire your ass

Howey, I hope JB gets better soon and goes home to become "best" again 

"Weeding out the joke schools" is easier written than done. The Independent Colleges accredidatio  is a joke - one of my colleagues from the Palm Beach are told a group of us that a school had been approved to do surgical tech training. The "school" was in the back side of a ahir salon and the students practiced making stiches in bags of hair.....
This is, as the letter from Martinez hints, a nice little sound bite.
A Bachelor's degree is not just a starting point - for some, it is the ticket to a career, an entree into a career field. MS/MA and PhD are not guarantees of employability.
I think the way to make higher education more affordable will also remove the most barriered folks from the process. Most freshman and sophmore basic courses can be offered to high acheiving HS students through dual enrollment and on-line for others. If you can chip away at a degree that way (and require that the state colleges reduce tuition for those classes) the cost of a BS/BA can go down. Once the junior and senior level classes are broached by a student more specialized (expensive) instruction kicks in. A little old History major like me didn't cost FSU that much because all I needed was professors and classroom space. A STEM major requires a more highly skilled instructional staff, lab space and supplies. Health care majors cause even bigger capacity problems because they need clinical hours either in a facility or in a really good sim lab.
In short, this is a bigger problem to solve than Mr. Business Man Rick Scott makes out.

Another indication that the end is nigh - Darth and I are in complete agreement.....

I'd give you karma for that ekg but I really hate getting badges.....

Good job, ekg!
I wish we could make people who go into Wal-Mart stop before entry to hear that explanation. Seriously - no-one is explaining it that clearly to the average voter.

Holy shit! I am in love with the Debbil! Darth, you have redeeming quailties in this fat old cunt's book.
