Mom is the real teacher

St. Petersburg 5-year-old cuffed after school outburst

I've posted this story mainly for the last sentence.

"The girl's mother, Inda Akins, said she is consulting an attorney. 'She's never going back to that school,' Akins said. 'They set my baby up.'"

Now, Ms. Akins, did they set your child up by having the candy dish within reach, the asst. principal's stomach within striking distance, various shins within your toddler's swath? If you don't think that the victim mentality is being passed on to kids, think again.

Thanks to Colt 44 for the heads up on this article.

Million Lebanese Stage Massive Retort to Terrorists

The people have spoken.

This Byrd is a Cuckoo

Former Klan member and current U.S. Senator recently compared the GOP to the Nazis. For "Sheets" Byrd to refer to the GOP as Nazis is ridiculous. However, as a former Klan member, perhaps he has a better insight on the Nazi frame of mind.

In a related story, Byrd also proposed that West Virginia change it's name upon his death to "The Robert Byrd Memorial State". If you have ever been there, you should be laughing right now.

German jobless rate at new record

I thought that the libs wanted us to be more like the Europeans?
The media is this country ran rampant about the failures of President Bush when unemployment reached 5.7% here and economic growth was at 1-2%. These numbers were at the absolute trough of a recession! Now, economic growth growth for Q4 was 3.8% and 3.1% for 2004. Those are solid numbers and getting stronger. Why in the world would we want to put our economy in reverse and adopt the model of Old Europe?

Adios, John Chaney!!

Chaney gives himself a seat in 'goon' incident

If you ask me, the goon was the guy giving the orders not the player who went into the game. Why is this guy still on the sidelines? Evidently, it wasn't enough to choke the George Washington University coach or to threaten Coach John Calipari by saying "I'm gonna kill the mother f*****". Chaney wished unemployement on the entire state of Ohio because they voted for President Bush in the recent election. Temple, this doesn't enhance your image. If you think it does, you are mistaken.
