Yeah asking for funding so schools can have text books and other basic needs is the same as some spoiled teenager asking for a better car then the one given. That message is really going to play well with images of what schools look like.

Yeah, go ahead, keep insulting your constituents bi-otch. Good luck with that.

Shows how out of touch this idiot Gov. is.

and what “Conservatives” think of the people teaching our children (and anyone who doesn’t contribute to their campaign funds.)

Yes, curious as to the basis for her comment that “it has been a difficult time,” and whether Oklahoma still proceeded to cut its revenues during that time…

Fallin remains the same idiot who fought the initiative to put storm shelters in elementary schools. This in a state regularly ravaged by tornadoes.

Somebody get the hook. Who votes for these people?

Also asking for funding so that kids can go to school more than four days a week is sooo selfish.

Well, she seems to be term-limited, so she doesn’t give a crap.

And the seat is up for grabs in November.

Time to get a Dem in there and turn stuff around.

Yes, messing with kids is not cool. A good lesson in civics. Hit those in power with an issue that everyone agrees on, except them because they really don’t care. Then, when they respond, they are exposed for what they really are, blaming outside forces because it couldn’t be them, now could it. They can say it ain’t true that OK teachers are 49th in pay, but the teachers themselves know. Oh, and whom to trust, your teacher or your politician? Hmmmm. Tough choice!

“Government doesn’t work, and we can prove it!”

I have no idea how business interests can support such a blisteringly stupid local party. How can you possibly recruit quality talent to your organization when prospective employees can’t even count on their kids being able to go to school?

Is there any company with major operations in Oklahoma aside from Walmart?

That’s really part of the point. These people don’t really want an informed, well-educated electorate. The electorate will not get a good education until they demand it.

This governor is like a totally bitchy mom who wishes she’d never had kids.

No pay increase in 10 years? Things were not that tough in Oklahoma. Except for seeing a N-Clank president on teevee every night for 8 of those years.

Just maybe those massive tax cuts did not produce dynamic growth and pay for them selves?

Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin (R) on Tuesday said that the teachers currently protesting for increases in school funding were like “a teenage kid that wants a better car.”

Today’s Republican Party, ladies and gentlemen:

  • Mocking overworked teachers who live below the poverty level.
  • Bullying traumatized school children who survived a gun massacre.
  • Gutting education to lick billionaire boots.

Not enough Renuzit® on earth to save the troposphere from the GOP dumping those boneless brown trouts.

Come November, it’s time to flush!
