The Week That Was

You have to wonder what the present and previous administrations were thinking about terorism.  First Bush and Company ignore the 9-11 Commission reports.

Then the Obama Administration does exactly what Bush did in his first year - ignore terrorism.

Now everyone is up in arms about the Tighty Whitey bomber. 

It's time for the people responsible for implimenting the 9-11 report and for connecting the dots of terrorism intel to be held accountable.

We can't stop every attack but we can get rid of those who aren't doing their best to make us safe.

Lots of people keep sending me teabagger meeting notices for upcoming events.

These teabaggers are all over the map when it comes to what they want.  As near as I can tell, they're against all sorts of stuff but have no plans for what to do to make things better.

You can't just be against something, you have to be for something.  If you think the systetem is broken, show me how you are going to fix it.

So far, the teabaggers are all talk, no action and worst of all, no plan.

It seems blind students in Oklahoma Public Schools can't get textbooks in Braille (see http://www.newsok.com/oklahoma-city-advocates-seek-braille-textbooks/article/3430921?custom_click=lead_story_title).

The funniest part is the parents blame the state school system and the state blames local school districts.

Meanwhile, blind students still don't have textbooks.

Isn't there some state lottery money that can go to Braille textbooks?  Better question, why isn't lottery money going for Braille textbooks?
