I received this email today:
Dear Parents,
You have probably seen the news that the State of Arizona is facing major budget shortfalls and the state legislature is in the process of cutting the state’s budget by $3,000,000,000. That’s not a typo it is $3 billion in cuts, with a hefty amount targeting education spending.
There is something you can do about it.
On Tuesday April 21st, concerned parents just like you are holding a rally at the State Capitol to let our lawmakers know how important it is to fully fund distance learning in Arizona and to not cut our funding.
I strongly encourage you to attend and to bring your children to this very important event. There will be free t-shirts and lunch all provided by Arizona Parents for Education. Our state lawmakers will also be there and they need to hear our voices.

blah blah blah! I received it from my kids virtual academy....
I don't understand what the heck they're doing over there?? Education is the last place they need to cut from. Right? I guess its so the next generation is too dumb to question the big guys. So while my kids are dumming down, CEO's are having big bonuses and lavish weekend getaways!
While the pen is mightier than the sword, having my butt have to wake up extra early to drive to Phoenix is well.. you can imagin.
What are we soppose to do, roll over and say "thank you Mr. Government sir."
And that "stimulus" misleading piece of toliet paper, why didn't EDU get a piece. It's not like they didn't know they might fall short on the budget, or maybe it was just for the "special needs" group. Cause I'll tell you Barney Frank seems real "special needs" if ya know what I mean!
So while Obamas out "campaigning" or apologizing for the big mean bully (U.S.) or denouncing our faith as a nation we're here losing our future....
What happened to "promote the general welfare"?
So that leaves me with also mentioning this:
You've probably already heard of it. But just in case, I thought this would be a good place to share it.
Just some facts:
Tarp = $750 Billion
Stimulus = $870 Billion
2009 Deficit = $1.75 Trillion
U.S. Dollar = WORTHLESS!
