Secondly, I need to tell you why all pork projects aren’t bad.
Ever since the last superintendent left, the community has been in constant battle with Durand. From his shoving the referendums down our throat to lacking common sense when it comes to kids’ safety and snow days to his constant fighting with his teachers, we have learned that he has a power issue. So does Bush — that is why we are in such trouble as a country and why we are in an illegal war.
It seems that the more you question these two, the more stubborn they get. This is narcissism, and it is not good for the common people.
It seems that Durand is unavailable for comment because he is a lobbyist. I have mixed feelings because at least he isn’t shoving another referendum down our throat — yet.
I was just like most every other taxpayer — get rid of the lobbyist and just say no to pork.
But, because of Bush’s squandering of trillions of dollars to pay off Saudis and Chinese and his wasting all of our taxes on Iraq, there is nothing left for U.S. citizens.
People like Durand are forced to go and lobby to get money because our government won’t come through — although, I imagine we taxpayers pay for the trip.
There is no common sense in our country any more.
If a child says, “I’m gonna kill ’em,’” we go to lockdown, treat them like Columbine pupils and get them counseling. But if eight teenagers bully someone online, then entice her to their house only to beat the snot out of her, we proceed with caution.
We have to first find out if they are adults or if the beating was bad enough to be a felony. If I was the parent, I’d no longer be pro-life.
McCain has that common sense.
He brags that he has never been for pork. By the way, pork is just a dirty word that they throw around as a political knife. I’m not for the bridge to nowhere, but I am for the pork that got us funding for the water treatment in Goodview. I am not for funding turtles or frogs to see if they are gay — doesn’t matter because if they were, they wouldn’t be able to marry — but I am for the pork that Pawlenty, Coleman and the others fought for to get funding for the Stockton flood victims.
It is easy to be Bush — he just flies everywhere and promises the world, then hands it over to the incompetent Federal Emergency Management Agency. He doesn’t come through with the funding because he has wars to start.
Bottom line is this: You will not change Durand because he is too stagnant in his thinking, so you need to get rid of him — I’d be willing to do his job for half the pay.
Before you get rid of all the pork, you better get a guy in office who is willing to spend money on things like education, the poor and old; and John McCain is not that guy — he’s too busy figuring out how we can spend a trillion dollars a year for the next 100 years in Iraq.
