Too Bad It Didn't Die OF Loneliness

I love our public education system. I especially love that which we have here in the state of Arizona. Those teachers and administrators and school board members are just so darned creative and responsible and dedicated and efficient and… well, I can’t type this with a straight face anymore. It seems that our educators here in Tucson AZ, a bastion of Regressive thought, had a bright idea. If the kids won’t come to school, we’ll bribe the bastards. That’s right. Bribe the kids to actually invest in their own futures.

I remember my family’s view of education from when I was a child. I was told to go to school and get good grades. And my parents had a number of really great reasons. I’d have a better chance at a good job and a future. I’d learn to think creatively and be prepared to face the real world that lay ahead. My parents wanted better for me than they had and education was the key. And the most important reason of all: If I didn’t go to school, study and apply myself, I was gonna get an ass whoopin’ with a splintered Frat Paddle that my derriere was all too familiar with. Good reasons, all.

But, we live in a post-Dr. Spock world. We are feeling the effects of trickle-down blame-enomics. It seems that parents feel the educators should be raising their kids and the educators seem more than willing to oblige. Thus we arrive at the new Bribes-for-Books pilot program in Tucson, AZ. The gist of it is, if a child has good grades, a good attendance record, and doesn’t drop out, they get a (at least for the pilot) stipend of $25 a week to do what their parents should be beating into them the directive to do anyway.

At present, it is being funded by a non-profit organization. But I foresee this becoming a part of the already ponderous public handout Hydra. As they have selected their students from a pool of low-income kids that were already doing well, virtual guaranteeing a false positive of success for the pilot, I see an outcry, as the data is finally tabulated, for the state to fund this incentive in perpetuity. And not just in Tucson, but throughout the State’s education systems. And then, how long will it be before it creeps onto the national scene and this graft-for-grades program becomes the norm in all 50 states?

If one observes this critically, an entirely different conclusion and result can be extrapolated. And it is very different than the misguided and retarded intent of the backers of the experiment. This is starting the children off early in the Entitlement establishment. If a child learns to expect compensation for that which they should be doing anyway, they are going to take that lesson and apply it to the rest of their lives. What happens if or when they go to college? Will they demand a signing bonus? How about when they enter the job market? We already have enough people who think they have a right to work and a job regardless of their work ethic, skill level or dedication. What becomes of the workplace and the economic producers in the nation then?

No, this will not work. It will not have the desired effect. And it is one of the dumbest ideas I’ve heard this week. Unfortunately, with the Left, the next half-assed, ill-advised, brainless scheme is just around the corner.

This idea, like most that manage to rattle around in the Regressive pea-brain, should have died of loneliness like its sisters and brethren before.

Penis, Vagina or ?

Yay! The nutjobs are at it again here in the epicenter of what used to be a rather solid Red State. I am speaking of a recent dust-up making local news in my beloved City and State. As those who have read here know, I live in Phoenix proper in the arid, dusty and just barely still Conservative state of Arizona. But the Leftards are encroaching. ASU seems to be spilling over its borders and daring to sully the decent people who don't take truck with any of those Liberal Arts College types.

The thing of which I speak began in November. Here in Phoenix, we have a nightclub run by a man named Tom Anderson. Tom, much like the eponymous character voiced by Mike Judge, is also dealing with a pack of buttheads. Anderson's 5th Estate, which tends to attract the college age slacker and sometimes deviant types, is under fire. I suppose the clientèle can't be helped, given the club atmosphere. Personally, I rather relish that he is parting these vapid hollow shells from their Parentally bestowed cash. But, it is under fire from the Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Transsexual lobby. That's right! The GLBT Lobby. Now, it may just be me, but any group that sounds like a Blue Plate special in a Jersey Diner should never be taken seriously. Yet, Arizona's leftist, Napolitano boot-licking AG, Terry Goddard has listeedn to this group of selfish hedonist and confused boygirls, and is now trying to burn Mr. Anderson at the stake.

Here's the scene. November, 2006. A normal night at the club. Men trying to score the hotties with lame pickup lines, metrosexual flair and entire cans of Tag Bodyspray. Women getting free drinks from dudes that wanna hit that, hanging with their cockblocking gaggle of hens and going to the bathroom in groups with numbers to rival the split personalities of an average Ron Paul supporter. As this herd of hootchies congregate in the Ladies Room, an odd thing is observed. Suzy with the cute miniskirt, the black sling-back heels, and the Adam's apple is standing to pee. Naturally, the women (the real ones, not those in sick mind only) are put off by this display, generally only scene performed by very limber and vulgar women. So these concerned sisters of the Double-X Chromosomes report the rather startling scene to the manager. Of course, the management was obliged to toss that cross-dressing deviant out on he/she/its ass. Not because of this alone, but because of the staunch, bend-to-my-will-or-i'll-throw-a-swishy-fit attitude. This coupled with an outright refusal to use the restroom that best matched the plumbing, rather than the mind and couture, of the apparently aggrieved.

As you have probably already guessed by now, with how very understanding of the wishes of every other GOD DAMNED PERSON IN THE PLACE!!!, the desire not to make the women (the real ones, not those in sick mind only) feel uncomfortable and unsafe... and realizing that the owner had the right to run his business whichever way he FUCKING PLEASED, the issue was put to bed. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Just kidding. These are Libtards we are talking about. The individual got the Fudge-Packing/Rug-lMunching/Indecisive/He/She/It aAlliance together to slander an honest business man. One who made that oh-so-crazy decision to put the needs and desires of pretty much 99.9% of his customers above the bullshit mental gymnastics of the low spark of high-heeled boys. These imaginarily aggrieved have since filed a complaint with Liberal Attorney General, and many failed Gubernatorial candidate, Terry Goddard. And, they are howling for blood of, and seeking punishment for, Mr. Anderson due to his insensitive refusal to pander to .1% of clientèle.

This effects not only AZ, but other states as well. Make no mistake about it. Have no illusions about it. The trial lawyers are sharpening their fangs, just itching to pounce on this in the name of Almighty Legal Precedent. So, if I have any readers: EMAIL THE AG NOW. Spread the word. Email your network in the VRWC and flood this opportunist with so much of an outcry that he has to drop this ridiculous pursuit and let justice prevail.
