Well, charter schools have been so successful in scamming money from the state treasury in Florida, it is natural that the GOP in Alabama would like to import the scheme.
Isn’t amazing how they refuse to spend money on public schools, but are more than willing to hand it out to people with no experience in the basics of education. To start a charter school in Florida you don’t have to prove you can housebreak a puppy, but you can get thousands from the state to teach children.
It is the core Republican belief that ‘private enterprise’ is ‘more efficient’ than the public sector, despite a total absence of any real proof.
Actually, people think I’m kidding when I say that when Alabama’s two Senators went to Washington, the average IQ in the state jumped up. Most Republicans hates taxes because they can’t understand arithmetic involving fractions. Rather than learning, they would rather yell ‘elitist’.
]]>Muslin was created in what is now Bangladesh, the Islamic area of what was Bengal. It was shipped into Europe on Arabic trade routes that included Mosul.
Probable derivation – a contraction of ‘Musselman linen’ …
Or, it could just be a typo 😉
]]>Moore should have been disbarred for violating a court order, but they just administratively removed him, so he lost a job and nothing else.
The ‘culture of victimhood’ is alive and well in the South. All of Alabama’s problems are someone else’s fault. It will all be solved by holding another prayer service, instead of actually doing anything about their problems.
