Sheep??? Tea Party folks??? How do you tell the difference between 'um??? Both white and both been on the wrong end of Boss Hog's sexual fantasies...

But seriously... I really don't care about ideology as much as I care about good policy that is grounded in factual knowledge of modern economics... I mean, yeah, it has become fashionable to beat down people who have taken the time and made the effort to get educated but we've had 30 years of "elite bashing" and look where it has gotten US???

Time to let the adults have a try at gettin' US outta this mess... I mean, if you just look at education alone the US needs to make some serious changes if we are going to be able to compete with anyone short of Bangladesh in 20 years... And we need to start with a culture that prides itself in not being educated as being something that is cool... Until we quit bashing education then we're goin' to slip even further down the ladder... Being stupid is ***NOT*** cool at all and I'd love for the Repubs and REDNECK NATION to quit their bashing of educated people... No wonder the brightest and best ain't stickin' around... They don't fell all that welcome... Until we quit this George Bush I crap then we ain't going anywhere...
