Dumb, Dumber and Dumbest

Public education in America at all levels is responsible to _________. Can you fill in the blank? Unfortunately the American people who read and can understand this article are few.
John Stossel of ABC did a show on “Stupid in America“. In this show he investigates why “modern” education doesn’t work and why it cheats the children. He hammers home the point that there is no encouragement for teachers or schools to excel. The education system is tied to the socialist union programs.
Stossel outlines why the “monopoly” of public education is not competitive and why it continues to fail regardless of how much money is thrown at it. In his investigation he did not get into the indoctrination that is mandatory in public education. The requirements of school systems to teach socialist doctrines and socialist mores and the inability of schools to “protect” students.
Stossel has done other shows on the public education only to be attacked by teacher unions, the NEA and others who have a vested interest in not allowing the truth to be told. FAIR (Fair and Accuracy In Reporting) jumps in whenever Stossel or any other reporter reports the truth. FAIR uses those reliable media sources as Media Matters for proving their point and everyone knows that their patron George Soros has no bias or agenda (sarcasm is intended).
Jay Leno’s jaywalking (see example here) is funny until you think about it and realize that most of the stupid answers are coming from college students or college graduates who will will soon be our industrial and political leaders. One of them could very easily become YOUR boss. Rep. Nancy Pelosi continues to astound us with her stupidiy (500 million Americans will lose their jobs) and we all remember that our current POTUS has traveled to “57 States with one left to go,” but his staff wouldn’t let him go to Alaska or Hawaii. So he is stupid! But He is the One who is enlightened and will miraculously save America. He will control a transparent government, he will not have lobbyists in his cabinet (unless he chooses them). He and his staff prepared a 63 item questionnaire for all potential employees to assist in the vetting. Let me pick a few questions at random:
(5) Have you or your spouse ever registered as a lobbyist or other legislative agent to influence federal or state legislation or administrative acts? Have you or your spouse ever received payment for acting as a lobbyist or legislative agent? If so, please supply details.
(34) Have you and your spouse filed all required federal, state, local and foreign income tax returns?
(37) Has a tax lien or other collection procedure ever been instituted against you or your spouse by federal, state or local authorities? If so, describe the circumstances and the resolution of the matter.
(53) Do you presently have or have you in the past had occasional (to be sure, a monthly housekeeper is covered) or regular domestic help? (e.g., a housekeeper, babysitter, nanny or gardener) If yes, please indicate the name and years of service for each individual and also provide a brief description of the services rendered.
(55) Have you paid all taxes and social security obligations applicable to the employment of the individuals listed in Question 53? Do you use an outside service to pay such individuals? Have all payments related to the employment of these individuals been made in a timely fashion? If not, please identify the length and reason for the delay(s).
(56) Have you complied with all federal, state and local laws and regulations related to the employment of individuals listed in Question 53?
So from the above questions and the problems with Daschle, Killefer, Bill Richardson, and Geithner we see that there is a bigger problem than just what the public media is reporting on. It means these bastions of honesty in this “most ethical cabinet ever… lied to their messiah also. Everyone who submitted the questionnaires to the vetting group provided more information to them than Barack Hussein Obama provided the American public before (or after) he was elected.
Meanwhile back on the block…America snoozes.

I am amazed at colleges these days. ESL classes, remedial English and Math, Professors who really don’t know or understand their subject. And we are suppose to be happy with the level of graduates they produce.
God help us all.
I am still in shock almost a month after the election. The idea that so many otherwise decent, seemingly intelligent citizens would be so mesmerized by “THE ONE”. Now that they have Him, I wonder how long it will be before they realize they have been snookered. Will it be when they realize they voted for Socialism?
euthanasia? A disastrous spending bill? loss of freedom? a one-party marxist Government? persistent poverty? ~What will it take?
will they wake up in time to stop this insanity? I wonder.
