Chicago teachers, disgraceful and disgusting
You have to wonder about the level of education of people like this lady. No wonder Illinois is in trouble. The parasites are out in full force:
Quotations on Socialism-“All socialism involves slavery.” ~ Herbert Spencer
“To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what he’s doing is good.” ~ Alexander Solzhenitsyn
“The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” ~ Margaret Thatcher
“It’s usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.” ~ Thomas Sowell

When one corporate fat cat sues another corporate fat cat this Court shall have no jurisdiction. Justice Marshall
He once came back from conference and told us sadly that the other Justices had rejected his proposal for a new Supreme Court rule. “What was the rule, judge?” we asked. “When one corporate fat cat sues another corporate fat cat,” he replied, “this Court shall have no jurisdiction.” — Elena Kagan on Thurgood Marshall.
In other words, ignore the Constitution from someone who supposedly was a Constitutional scholar. Thurgood Marshall was a disgrace to the bench.

Police shoot Jacksonville Florida toddler
Police put 42 rounds into a car with toddler and mom after robber had carjacked their car.
“We had a very volatile situation,” Sheriff John Rutherford told the Florida Times Union. “I just don’t want to try to speculate on why they felt the need to shoot at the suspect while he was in the vehicle.”
Elena Kagan not gay says White House, but is there something wrong with it if she is?
The headline:
“White House complains about CBS News [Washington Post] blog post saying that possible Supreme Court nominee is gay.”
So, my question is, what is wrong with being gay? Does the White House have a problem if she is gay? Is there anyone except the White House who cares?
[May 10, 2010 Update:] Elena Kagan’s friends: She’s not gay [Politico]. Again, is there something wrong with being gay that everyone is having a spasm about it? Who cares if she is or isn’t?
Clinton – “many deeply, deeply troubled” people.
“I’m glad they’re fighting over health care and everything else. Let them have at it. But I think that all you have to do is read the paper every day to see how many people there are who are deeply, deeply troubled.” Former President Clinton, April 16, 2010.
The former President is correct, there are many deeply troubled people out there, but the ones who are deeply troubled are the ones who don’t believe in freedom, but believe that their needs justify the seizure of someone else’s means to meet them. The deeply troubled people are the ones who wish to control the country instead of promoting freedom and the belief that each person is able to and responsible for controlling their own lives. The deeply troubled people are the people who believe that liberty means freedom for them to control others by force. The most deeply troubled people out there, however, are the ones who will lie, cheat, and deceive in order to pervert the meaning of the Constitution and freedom for their own power. Only a truly disturbed and troubled person would want to control others. Only a deeply disturbed person would want to have the power of life and death over an entire country.
