“Every bureaucrat has a constitutional right to fuzzify, profundify and drivelate. It's a part of our freedom of speech...If people can understand what is being said in Washington, they might want to take over their own government again.”

The guaranteed Republic for which the Constitution stood is dead, The language of liberty, the mental images of freedom, and the spirit of sovereign self/representative rule are all but forgotten bygones. BUT, there seems to be light of a rebirth.

Funny and true!

I love it!

Amen to light, Mike...and another one for good humor. :)

Considering the government school educated electorate, I doubt that most people could understand what was being said in Washington even if it was said in perfectly clear English. Even if they did understand it, most wouldn't care because they've been domesticated and tamed to just accept what scraps their masters give them.

Most schools are run by your friends and neighbors. Don't blame the "government". Survey's show that some people don't like "public school" but when asked about their own local public school they say that it is fine. It is the notorious 'we they' syndrome all over again.

"we they" syndrome...maybe. Maybe not. Maybe many people are as ignorant about what is going on in their local public school as they are about what is going on in government. Admitting the problem forces action...and no one seems like that.
