Instructions to the U.S. Congress.


Stop the sequester. 
Quit playing dumb on purpose. 
Quit acting like you have something more important to do. 
We have a nation to build, and it is not going to be a tiny historical relic from the 18th century powered by
slaves and horses. 
Face it! 
Today our economy is crumbling, 
our government doesn't want to work, 
our health care "system" is the worst in the world, 
we are fighting endless wars that we intentionally can't win, 
our education system is failing just like our students will 
when they get out of those schools. 
Get busy. 
Get to work. 
You are an embarrassment to the whole world.

A rare tribute to Governor McCrory, newly arrived in Raliegh to steer the ship of the state of North Carolina through the rough seas of Democracy as it navigates the Straits of Capitalism.  He WINS the presentation of the rare award of FlySwatter and Bat trophy which is only received upon the achievement of an Incredibly Stupid  Statement.

Congratulations Governor McCrory.  This "honor" is presented to you for your statement on TV two days ago that you were drafting legislation to shift higher education funding toward career-oriented fields and away from academic pursuits that have, in your words "no chance of getting people jobs".  One of the first objectives of Capitalism, when it begins to take charge of any government, is to make that economy them most important aspect of life in that community.  As far as education is concerned, what Capitalism wants for Education is for its students to be trained to know facts and answers.  Governor McCrory, you have been trained very well.   Congratulations!  And, oh yes, Swat! Bam!
