These traits are common in academia. In fact you can see those traites in Barak and Michelle Obama. Ah.. honesty and integrity is their creed, eh? So why is Obama's Aunt, the illegal alien who was ordered deported 5 years ago, still residing in the US? Furthermore, why has she been granted a stay on her deportation, conveniently after Obama's election, until 2010? Illegal aliens are supposed to be deported if they don't appeal AT THAT TIME and if they disobey the order they lose all right of appeal later on. I know if my Japanese girlfriend overstays her H-1B visa without renewing, she IS FORCED to leave the US without appeal and not eligible for renewal (certainly not while continuing to reside in the US). boston.com He "claims" he didn't know she was illegal.. Do you believe that? And she gets to stay in Federal/State housing, while my GF has to pay extorted rental rates in NYC for her small apartment. Apparently our immigration laws are not worth upholding... So spare me your BS about Obama and Michelle. They are just as "special" as the rest of the "power elite". But this is all a digression from the topic of this thread.. For that I apologize. Hawk

this was satire, no? the CA educational system gets over half the money collected in state taxes and all they do is whine about it not being enough... when they are the highest paid teachers in the nation and their largest school district has a 50% drop out rate. 50%. and all they can do is try to grab more cold, hard, cash. Obama has you fooled... wake me up when he actually tells the truth for once (and i'm a little miffed that bush hasn't been charged with war crimes, so don't go all simple minded and claim i'm some right wing bush supporter).
