Indoctrination on Campus: SEIU Arrests Give New Meaning to ‘Cutting Class’
by Liberty ChickI don’t usually engage in snarky posts, but every once in a while, I need a little snark to put a ridiculous situation into perspective. So please indulge me for the next three minutes…
It’s a good thing the government’s taken over the student loan industry. Now our precious young college students will receive every opportunity to spend hours learning in the college classroom, enlightening their minds and enriching their lives.
Oh wait, no, that’s not how that “free money” is spent. Why use our hard earned tax dollars for an education when you can waste our money and spend that time instead on becoming a pawn in someone else’s propaganda? Why not abuse the money that’s been confiscated from our paychecks at a time when we so desperately need it and instead enjoy the benefits of union indoctrination on your college campus?
So let me get this straight. Students all across the country have suddenly all taken a collective interest in the economic performance of their university’s cafeteria? So, instead of attending classes like grateful students excited to learn, they’re sitting in the middle of a busy intersection at a red light, arm in arm, donning their SEIU-provided purple shirt, blocking traffic and taking cops away from important things – like responding to emergencies. And last week, 20 were arrested for doing this at Ohio State University.
Well, there must be a perfectly good reason, right? Not really. If you follow the “research” SEIU publishes, you’d think that Sodexo is trying to kill off innocent Americans by tainting the food supply. That’s more an organizing tactic than it is factual information that supports a real safety issue. They’ve been doing that for months with the grade school cafeteria workers. And if you listen to the protesters, the reasons, if they can offer any, are a bit of a stretch. Here, they’re protesting in part that Sodexo isn’t offering full-time work to stadium employees. Students in the second video disrupt a basketball game to make their point. While in the first video, workers and students joined together to rally “for justice.” As one gentleman in the first video explained, the company only gives him hours to work during football season and basketball season. But he wants full-time hours and feels that Sodexo should give him that.
Have these college kids not noticed that they go home on long breaks throughout the year? Are they aware that stadiums have downtime? No students, no events. No sports season, no events. No spectators, no events. No events, no full-time hours. Maybe they should explain that to the workers.
If you haven’t been following SEIU’s all-out war against Sodexo for the last 18 months, let me give you the crash course. Sodexo is a food service and facilities management company that provides cafeteria and cleaning services at many of the nation’s companies, schools, event facilities and athletic stadiums. The company’s 110,000 employees in the US (plus even more in international locations) have long been a been a prime target for SEIU’s organizing attempts. In the “old days”, colleges and universities hired food and cleaning service workers as direct employees. But as that need has declined over the years with all the food establishment choices available today, more and more schools now outsource their food and cleaning services in an effort to leverage those cost savings to avoid making cuts to students’ educational programs. Organized labor has of course pushed back. SEIU’s been pummeling Sodexo with their corporate campaign tactics through the usual outlets – the smear website, the manufactured “studies” from affiliates and allies, the strategically times press releases, the coordinated protests, sit-ins and international delegations, and all the drummed-up issues…
Whew. No wonder Andy Stern said he was bored. It’s all so overdone. The same old tired routines. The same old manufactured outrage.
But today, in these days of Bailout Bingo, when We the Taxpayers are picking up the tab for all these antics, as many of these students are lucky enough to attend college thanks to public subsidies, while others (like me) were left to their own means of working their way through school, the American people aren’t yawning anymore. We’re tired too. We’re tired of subsidizing government propaganda (unions are just an extension of this government) and watching people march around like a bunch of spoiled brats. But we’re tired of letting this happen.
Perhaps it’s time we all started supporting the Sodexo’s of our nation, with our own dollars from our own pockets. And do it wearing red, white and blue – en masse. It’s a much nicer look than that tired, old, worn-out sea of purple.

"Student Eaters International Union"?
Maybe they should get theirs heads into their studies and stop wasting Mom and Dad's money.
As a college student myself, I have noticed that most of my classmates (they are usually considerably younger than I am) have no opinion of their own—-on anything. This was most apparent in my U.S. Government class in my Freshman year. These union thugs swoop in, give them a cause and an idea and have an instant army of people who have never really thought for themselves. The big problem with our colleges today is that the students go in with a submissive mindset, one that tells them to believe everything and not to think on their own.
I think these students have too much down time. I would sympathize if they were protesting the quality of food. Welcome to the 21st century where getting a college education actually makes you dumber, not smarter.
Wonder how many of those students were paid? Wonder if they realize by unionizing the food their tuition just went up?
If the students don't want to attend classes (that in most cases Someone else like parents or taxpayers are paying for), kick them out & let others that want to learn have their slots. These mindless tools are just useful idiots for SEIU. They do not understand that SEIU & its Democrat whores in the government, at all levels, are responsible for the debt these kids will pay for for the rest of their lives and ruining the economy so they can't find jobs when they graduate.
If those kids only knew how foolish they look and how wrong they are. Our future leaders? Thankfully I should be dead by the time they take over.
Sodexo is trying to kill off innocent Americans by tainting the food supply.
Kind of like how the Tea Partiers are racist.
Heh.
If I only knew a free tee-shirt would get my kids to do something……………………………If I only knew!
"Have these college kids not noticed that they go home on long breaks throughout the year? "
No. For them, education is a right. The taxpayers should cheerily pay for their education, their room and board, their clothes, their healthcare, their parties, and their participation in protests.
This is all very European. The riots we've seen there will be seen here in the not too distant future. We must undo everything this American hating president has instituted.
Part 1
Like so many Unions SEIU keeps screaming for Social Justice. To a conservative, Social Justice is the opportunity opportunity to seek gainful employment and then work for the opportunity to advance your lot in life. To improve your chances in improving it takes skills and frequently education. Now that is not a gaurantee that it will happen but it is a chance it will. If you have an employee who has limited capacity of their own to speak the langauage and often times not even a high school diploma, how do they achieve more in life? Without a lot of effort, they usually do not make much advancement. There are a fair amonut of Service Worker positions across our society. They are not going to get the wages and benefits that most college grads will but they will get paid for the effort they put forth, was it should be. If they as an individual improve their skills and abilities they become a more sought after individual to employers and with effort can find better opportunities. Take a look at the majority of minimal wage employees ( not minimum wage) and honestly tell me, are they doing everything they can to make themselves a better employee? Not too often in my observation.
Part 2
You might wonder why they do not work to improve their opportunities in life. I did until thinking on it for a while. They do not because they do not need to. A modest wage along with Government aid in the form of housing subsidy, food and liviong subsidy and quite a few other government handouts provide more than enough to be quite satisfied. So, the moral of the story is why bust your but when the subsideed lifestyle is the equivelent to the worker who has a better education and works more hours to get ahead and pay taxes when you can have the comparable lifestyle with less effort. And if their union wins they get more stuff with no more effort for year around wages with only partial year work.
Please work like Liberty Chick, that this young generation not become as it seems- the Zombie generation.
We must do all we can to wake up our young people to this danger to their happiness- manipulation by the Leftists.
Liberty Chick is getting snarky? And sporting a new due?
Thanks Andy Stern you coward. Figures you'd use a college that can't beat USC.
The Buckeye State has got to be better than this. And what are the Dukes Of Snark supposed to do if LC is getting snarky? I guess it is time to dust off our field manuals from the 1770's.
Purple Shirts? Red Coats? Two peas in a pod.
I have a nephew getting ready to graduate from OSU. If his parents ever caught him supporting SEIU, they would have him by the ear. Prior to the last presedential election, he was educated by his parents as to what dems and repubs stood for and know he wouldn't be a part of this "dog and pony show".
I only hope the day will come when I get my favorite color back…
This is merely practice & testing the waters for when they wish to turn the students against the
TEA Party movement. Been saying for a couple of months that our side needs to try to get the
college & post-college age people on board. Looks like o & stern beat us to them, & I'm not
surprised, I witnessed their antics in the 60's. They have no fear, & no brain to think, just raw
moxie to flow wherever they are pointed, like a stampede of buffalo on the plains.
Lemmings.
Yes, but we can hunt the buffalo. And of course, we all know where the lemmings end up.
Get back in the classroom kids…open a book. Get smart enough so you'll know when you're being had.
And I'm with you Texastoni, I hope we get to enjoy purple again some day.
I fear this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Our nation is warehousing young people in educational institutions through their mid-twenties until they receive a degree, (bachelor's in psychology, sociology, etc.) and then obtain employment in a job their grandfather could have held with an eighth-grade education.
The sad part is that the students are pawns who had Boomer parents who failed to teach them to think and be responsible along with a poor public school education at the hands of the Progressive NEA types of teachers. Recipe for failure as these lemming students join the world.
I wish they would! But it appears the institutions of higher learning are continuing to kick the can down the road by awarding degrees to students who lack basic abilities in school and are ill prepared tor life. They often times can not speak, read or write above an 8th grade level.
Remember according to the agitators stirring up the kids, EDUCATION IS A RIGHT!!!.
If colleges didn't fill their student heads with fluff,fiction, and freebiees.. and filled it with a work ethic of excellence and facts America wouldn't be in this mess!
A friend worked in a local university President's office and would talk to the people there. They told him that for one reason or another, some students decided to have a sit-in at the President's office. One of the students at the sit-in was from Columbia and his father got word of his son's involvement. He flew to the university, found his son, and proceeded to kick his butt in front of his friends for wasting his money. If more parents acted like that or simply cut their kids off and made them pay their own way through college, you'd see less of this nonsense.
Mommy and Daddy ought to be talking and listening to their children but sad to say too many won't.
I would guess there are not more than two or three OSU professors who disagree with all this. And of those, probably none have the spine to say so publicly. These young morons won't have any negative consequences for acting on the assumption that their desires are more important than the law and the convenience of their fellow citizens. Most of their professors will sing their praises and give 'em "As." I'm even willing to bet a ten spot that none of them will receive any criminal penalty whatsoever (e.g. fine, community service, suspended sentence, etc.) from the local judge as a result of being arrested. *Sigh*…Young Americans receiving yet another lesson teaching them that they can do anything they want and no one has the legal or moral right to tell them "no."
I have a Son who graduates from ASU in a couple of weeks and many of the more mature students he knows are understanding the problems that Obama has brought them. This fall they will swing the vote to R or stay home from the polls because their rainbow and unicorn collapsed in a heap and has been kicked to the curb as the National Debt to China is becoming theirs.
"Been saying for a couple of months that our side needs to try to get the college & post-college age people on board."
I'd focus on the getting dropouts on board. Those in college are smart enough to see the teabaggers as the frauds that they are.
T.E.A. Taxed Enough Already. After Obama cut taxes for 95% of us. Shocking ignorance.
Oh, the coolest thing just occurred to me.
What if Obamao's card-check legislation gets rammed through the Congress? Then, the union thugs can intimidate any poor food-service worker they choose, thereby guaranteeing nearly 100% support among the workers for union representation. The only workers brave enough to say no? The ones without kids or property that would be at risk from the union thugs.
No lefty trolls can tell me any different. I've been there. I've had the union thug in my face. (He decided to pursue easier targets when he heard what I had to say.)
They (your younger classmates) never had primary or elementary educations, they were all indoctrinated.
"As a college student myself… …the students go in with a submissive mindset, one that tells them to believe everything and not to think on their own."
Let me guess. Liberty U, or Hillsdale, or Bob Jones. Those are the only ones I know of that preach to have the faith, believe everything, in spite of the fact their is no supporting evidence.
Either do something about US universities as indoctrination centers or lose the country to big government leftism. It's that simple. It may already be too late.
Military chant tactics being introduced into the minds of the youth, the seeding of the new civilian army of Hussein's (Obama's)!!! It is like the drill cadence the military uses to raise adrenalin levels of the individuals they are training for combat!!! Terrorists also use this tactic, in more of a chanting like style, which this can easily evolve into, which it seems to be doing!!! All totalitarians know that the power over the youth is the conquering force of a nation, to control their minds, is to have the energetic as your servants!!!
This is what the seiu and obamaphites do look at 2:50 onhttp://www.breitbart.tv/axelrod-we-mistakenly-bel...
" Boy, those were the good ole days"
Are the students part of the National Civilian Security Force that Obama talked about?
Instead of "brown shirts" they are "purple shirts".
Well, bring it on youngsters. We have something for your @ss!
I love that dad for being proactive. I'd be curious to see if the new loan programs that were sneaked
through in the H/C bill don't decouple the students from their parents in such a was as to enable the
young to feel as though they don't need approval from their families in any of their choices, academic
or other.
1st, your use of the word "their" supports the fact that you have no college education. 2nd, if you looked at my profile you'd know I attend the University of Florida. 3rd, I'm a proud athiest, religious schools are not for me. As for supporting evidence, what would you like me to do, write an article, post some video? It is an opinion that I have formed by sitting among them for 3 years.
Yup anon he cut taxes for the 47% who paid nothing in FEDERAL INCOME TAX too. Too bad you have flunked math so badly. Where did you get your education? You might want to get a lawyer and sue them for fraud.
I hope these students experience working as a Union member sometime in their life. No matter how hard you work you will still make the same as a lacker. I've witnessed it first hand "slow down you are making us look bad".
Most public schools don't bother teaching critical thinking skills anymore. I am blessed that my formative years in public education saw me in advanced learning programs that taught the basics of both logic and critical thinking and evaluation. By the time I got to university, I could determine at least enough to know when something didn't seem to add up. It's too bad I was shackled by grades and still timid enough not to stand up for my suspicions.
You hit it on the head Sunshine!
What all these intelectuals in this administration and most lefties for that matter forget is "human nature". For most people they 'do what they must' to get by. The exceptional people 'do everything they can' to advance. The Great Society for all its faults, which are many, did it's greatest damage by destroying 'personal initiative and personal responsibility'.
The Laws of Human Nature are immuntable. My favorite anecdote to come out of the former soviet union, socialized work force: "We pretend to work, and they pretend to pay"
When you artificially level the playing field (affirmative action) and you take away the rewards for exceptional achievements, you simultaneously take away: ambition, initiative, personal responsibility, innovation, and dreams.
It is a myth that there is such a thing as a 'happy worker' in the collective. People end up simply going robotic and only seek distraction (booze / drugs) in their idle time.
The goal of life should not be measured by how many breaths we take, but how many times our breath is taken away.
SsC, you are so lucky he is outta there, but I also realize finding work is almost impossible
for recent grads……..good luck to him. He's stepping into the 'real world' at an inopportune
time.
My take on it is this: learn from each class what you can, if you have to write something contrary to your beliefs for the grade-do it. It might make you feel dirty, but it doesn't change how you feel about it and what is the point of sacrificing your grades which can determine your future salary? I plan on graduating with honors!
Yeah, about lemmings …

I think that the big problem is that parents feel that it is their duty to pay for college for them. When I have kids I plan on doing this: purchasing a Florida 529 plan, which locks in the cost of tuition in today's dollars. When my children get to college age, I will give them a choice: go to a Florida college and pay me back on my investment (which will be a considerably better deal than they could get on their own with tuition inflation) or pay for it themselves. If they choose not to use the 529, I get my money back (albeit without interest) from the state. But, the benefit is that their college becomes paid for at no cost to me, it gives my kids a great deal on education, and they still have the experience of paying for their education, meaning that they will value it.
Michelle Obama's "childhood obesity campaign" is just a front to unionize school cafeteria workers. Nothing this pack does fails to carry the union label first. Nothing.
Charles Murray is right: There are too many people in college pursuing a B.A. We've dumbed it down about as far as it can go. Time for those kids to find a job and earn a living – hopefully in a non-union shop.
When there were 12 Obama supporters for every one McCain supporters in "higher education" you can imagine what kind of education students are getting.
From the dawn of time and for every species to inhabit the earth: Life is a BATTLE for SURVIVAL. Those who are smarter, faster, more industrious, more tenacious, and driven SUCCEED. Those who do not, FAIL.
The whole notion of 'handicapping' the talented to allow the uninspired and lazy to 'feel better about themselves' is destructive to our society.
Wake up people, life is a contest and not everybody can win. It is a sad fact of life but a fact just the same.
The lefties who so vocally support the theories of Darwinism in our schools fail to recognize the same in real life.
Don't waste your breath on the idiot troll. It just excites him.
Hey you sheeple kids don't you know that unions equal costlier meals and cleaning for you. SEIU is using you big time to get money from already part time people.
After they become "organized" and the cost of a cheeseburger, fries and soda becomes $13.95 at these university cafeterias instead of $5.95 will they then protest the cost? Maybe by then they will have graduated and not have to burden the cost. Alas leave it for the next generation!
You have quite the way with words this morning StoryKeeper. And as usual have profound insight.
I for one had to work my way through college. I worked whatever jobs I could find and was thankful for whatever money I earned. Having worked as a janitor and the dish room in the cafeteria I came to appreciate that the reason I was in college was so that I would not have to this kind of work when i graduated.
If their goal is 'full time employment' as a hot-dog vendor at the stadium, why the hell are they going to school?
That's very true. I know so many parents who didn't do their job in this respect.
So true, but he does have a great work ethic and a PMA along with a good dose of common sense. Right now he is in the process of forming an S-Corp for a theatre troop and has procured a theatre space for free in return for his labor and supplies to do a build out. His goal is to make a little money and then head for Grad School. He is pounding the pavement for a decent day job and if none are offered in his field, he will go to Home Depot or anything else to give him a toehold into the workforce. He knows that pride does not pay the bills.
The 529's are likely to go the same way as the HSA's I am afraid to say. Great idea though, but Obama will not allow it. The collective will view you as a heretic.
I contend that it's a good thing we will change out the hill this November. The nation can not afford to forgive all those student loans in the future and that needs to be re-worked or overturned.
End the practice of tenure!!
Just Like Hearding Dumbass Cattle! MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I 2nd that Connie. Parents should turn off TVs and computers and spend quality time with their children teaching them morals like hard work and common sense.
I take the optimistic view that Obama will not be in charge forever and that the country will come back to some semblence of rationality as we did in immediately after the last remotely comparable Democratic regime—Carter. Face it, after 4 years of Carter's catastrophes, the nation had the sense to elect Reagan, and for 8 years, the world as a whole became a better place.
Is that right? Thanks for the heads up. I'll check this out and come to a conclusion on my own, of course. There are so many things I do not know, even though I dedicate a good portion of my time to trying to understand a lot of different issues. America is being attacked from within and there is so much to learn.
What has occurred to me in all this, it really takes a lot of effort to learn about what is happening to America.
Complacency or "mild interest" has no place in this moment in time. Someone who is just dabbling in understanding is missing so much information. There is no way to get enough information by just dabbling in order to make an educated decision about what is important to the country. Then to top that off, if you have a certain group of people surrounding you that form your mind set, you really are doing yourself and your country a great injustice.
Take a moment and influence someone new today. I do it all the time. Many people , by their objection "yeah but what can I do about it" are really asking you a serious question. They are practically begging you for information.
It takes that one on one in order to shift people from complacency to caring.
comment noted ( and appreciated)
I had to as well, but now tuition is so elevated good luck with that. Even at state colleges the price is astronomical.
Yeah don't like the company? Fiind another job.
Yeah, don't like the country? Find another country.
These brats will fade as the money does.
Hillsdale is not a religious institution.
ditto : )
He'll make it fine with that attitude, sounds like you raised him right.
This is a useful site for college students who have issues with their leftist instructors and wish to fight back:
Indoctrination U http://indoctrinate-u.com/pages/welcome.html
Agree SsC, but I'm beginning to worry about the 'bitter clingers' (incumbent senators & reps),
who we'll be stuck with in Jan 2011. The recent 'display' by Tom Coburn was not encouraging.
I thought he was solid, but must say I am disappointed. It's clear we'll need to be in DC push-
ing just as we have been for a year. It will be hard to maintain the momentum, people are so
accustomed to instant results, but I'm afraid this struggle will go for several years.
Sunshine Connie
Please don't paint every employee of fast food restaurants, Espresso stands etc. with the same brush. Many of the highest paid professionals in America today started working @ McDonalds, Burger King, etc. @ 15-16 years old. And continued to do so while attending college. They wers/are working to improve themselves & their job skills, through education.
Sarah Palin worked her way through college as a waitress, and graduated owing NOTHING for school loans. It can be done, and has been done.
Those that you speak of never attend college & are happy to work a few hours @ a fast food restaurant, but not enough to mess with their Welfare handouts. Or jeopardize the Governments ownership of them from cradle to grave.
Its not discrimination if everyone is graded the same. I have noticed that some professors like a particular writing style over others, that is fine. I may not fully agree with all lessons, but some are open to opinion and scrutiny. On multiple choice tests, if I get an answer wrong that I can prove was graded wrong, I prove that I was right by citing sources and getting the grade reversed. Other battles are harder to fight and would take considerable time and energy such as the left's opinion that FDR's new deal got us out of the recession. There are scholarly papers supporting both views (that it got us out of recession and that it prolonged the recession). I know what I believe, but if I knew my instructor believed otherwise, I would write my paper according to that knowledge while at the same time holding onto my beliefs and spreading my beliefs to all who want to know them. To be fair, most people who have degrees in economics, like myself fully believe that the recession was prolonged. Those that major in other subjects like history or engineering, who do not study macroeconomic impact may accept the liberal view of history.
I've said for years, College students are the most misguided and ignorant group of people anywhere on earth. I didn't say they were stupid, just ignorant and misguided. They let their Professors fill their heads with Socialist garbage, and then insinuate that making money is somehow evil. I guess these students should ask themselves why they think they're going to College. It is College students who are stuck in the Matrix.
Ah ha! That's where the moonbats were when I was at The State House in Columbus for the tax day tea party gathering! Just down the road a few miles.
Support the Young Republicans on College Campus'. They are needed more than ever to counter the Left's propaganda, but are far outnumbered. Pray for them and other students on campus to stand up to the Union thugs of SEIU and other corrupt groups.
you would think this was about curing cancer… its about food service….wood shampoos for all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before you kiss your child goodbye on the way to college, cancel all soccer participation and anything else that disrupts communication over dinner so you can properly educate them. Bless the children that participate in protests because it shows they have heart. Your child does not have to agree with you, but at least start the thinking process. Liberalism is common in childhood and the child who wants to learn will eventually find the correct answers, especially if entering the regular workforce and not the government.
The reason union supporters in universities is so important is the SEIU's (or whatever they will call themselves after the next round of leadership is convicted of pension fraud) must have business leaders second guessing themselves regarding "norms". While that happens the creation of entitlements goes unchallenged without someone called B.S. without equivocation. Why not start with ignorant college kids?
What's next… a yearly salary and full benefits for SEIU represented "Lawnmower's Union"?
This is the lamest generation of college Libturds I've ever seen.
If they wqant to get paid for full-time, then Oh MY get a full-time job!!!
This is all very European. The riots we've seen there will be seen here in the not too distant future. We must undo everything this American hating president has instituted.

Yes, go to college and learn how to become a professionally paid protester for the unions!!(with my money of course…)
Yes, the dumbification of America is right on schedule! Be sure to bring a really good flashlight for this new dark age…
If I went back to college, I'd piss off a lot of professors and students alike, just for having a free thinking brain.

"Actual Libertarians are concerned about the freedom of individuals."
Precisely why some of us, whose Libertarian Party registration date pre-dates Glenn Beck BTW, fight to stomp out freedom-killing unions like SEIU. Unions that pretend to fight for workers' rights, then throw their rank and file to the ground as their union bosses step all over them for their own personal political and financial gain. Union bosses who make 10 times the amount any of the "laborers", as you call us, will ever hope to make. If they cared so much, they'd start by cutting their own extravagances and stop spending billions of their rank and file's union dues on political lobbying and presidential campaigns If you've ever been FORCED to be union, as I have, you might get that. So WTFU, you robot.
Time to Revoke Ex-Order#10988!! We need an “Alternative School” to replace Progressive Colleges!!
I have no problem with min wage work and have been glad to do it in my past Greenman. My children have also worked in fast food as a stepping stone or bridge to a better place. There is no dishonor in that as work is rewarding and a great teacher. I never intended to belittle in anyway what is entry level or pickup work as a second job to make ends meet or a little pocket money for a retiree. I can never condone those who do have the ability to do better and do not work up to their potential because the marginal employment and government assistance that more productive workers are forced to subsidize via taxes. It is up to each person to reach their own potential and subsidies dull the motivation for success for too many people. That is a shame in my view. I am not speaking of the individual who does not have the ability to thrive rather the individual who lacks the personal motivation to do so. I hope you understand what I am attempting to communicate. I am impressed with people who succeed and recount humble beginings. I know I learned many things about life and work from a rural farm youth and hay wagons, gardening and milking cows. Back then I thought it a promotion to get a minimum wage job!
"As a college student myself"
Hey mac. Please go to see your economics professor and ask him about the Obama tax cuts.
And when you're done sucking the teat of Mommy and Daddy and support yourself, please share.
You'll at least have a tinge of credibility.
WOW! You are vet and still had that come out of your mouth? Nothing will ever change unless we change it. If a teacher discriminates there is recourse.
are they like snipes? I wanna go snipe hunting, I hear it's "fun"!
Shocking who would of thought you need to work full time to get full time.
If this scum will resort to tactics which distract the police from more important duties, then they are more than capable of tainting the foods.
Well, it doesn't surprise me that to you, the thought of college automatically means relying on your parents, or the government. But, some people, like myself actually work while going to school. I also have my economics degree already, so I have no professor, and yes, I know what Obama has pledged (not a dime of tax increases-on any of your taxes), and he has LIED, big-time. I also know you like to say he cut taxes for 95% of America, kind of funny considering that only 53% actually pay income taxes. As Bush said, "You have to pay taxes to get a tax cut". But here are some articles that you might want to read to free yourself of the lies that 'The Administration' has told you.

ANy economics professor (they tend to be more conservative, it's BUSINESS SCHOOL afterall, i.e. REAL LIFE) will confirm that Obama's "tax cuts" area mirage to give him cover for massive TAX INCREASES.
He has EXPLODED the deficit, QUADRUPLING the deficit in 15 months. Outrageous.
He will have to RAISE TAXES, neccessarily. It HAS TO HAPPEN. He's endangered the U.S. triple A bond rating (by himself) and is drowning us in debt. Obama NEEDS to take some economics that isn't taught by Marx
anon, if you're going to choose a metaphor such as "sucking on the teat" you might want to reconsider whether to include "Daddy". That is, unless that's how you roll. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
"I also have my economics degree already"
So share your wisdom about Obama's tax cuts. For 95% of us.
And there is no way you are a vet. I've worked with many over my lifetime. And one thing about them that I have always been keenly aware is they are not liars and frauds. Unlike you.
Quit disrespecting our military by impersonating them. Slimebag.
