  1. But soft, what scent from yonder window falls?

    It is the East, and Trump is the stink.

    Boy, does he stink.

    Stay upwind, America.

    The nose you save may be your own.

  2. Pueblo teachers and paraprofessionals will strike on Monday. The labor board has declined to intervene. At stake: wages, working conditions.

    At the core of the decision to strike is the D60 board of education’s rejection, by a 3-2 vote, of a fact-finder’s recommendation that the teachers and parapros should receive cost-of-living adjustments — 2 and 2.5 percent, respectively.

     

      1. Yeah, that’s a complete sea change departure from the established practice, understood by all parties, of giving an inadequate, partial COLA . . . 

        . . . “here’s your 0.25% COLA.  Say ‘thank you.’ Now STFU and get back to work!”

    1. The union seems to have gone the extra mile to avoid a strike.  Fair minded people will support their cause.

      Nosotros apoyan la huelga.

      1. Sorry 'bout that Cook!  Remember the Pepsi Syndrome?

        "NO SOFT DRINKS IN CONTROL ROOM" 

        Hopefully, once we show these clown acts the door (both in DC and all the States), we'll be able to get down to serious business once again.

         

         

      1. Good.  IIRC, lamborn had enough signitures  but his signature gatherers weren't residents.   Levin just didn't have enough valid signatures, s o the cases can be distinguished.

  3. Paul Ryan sez "The hell with it, I'm almost outta here anyway!"

    Speaker Paul D. Ryan reinstated Father Patrick J. Conroy as the chaplain of the House of Representatives on Thursday, after the chaplain sent him a letter rescinding his forced dismissal and declaring that he would fight to remain at his post.

    “I have accepted Father Conroy’s letter and decided that he will remain in his position as Chaplain of the House,” the speaker said in a statement. He added, “It is my job as speaker to do what is best for this body, and I know that this body is not well served by a protracted fight over such an important post.”

    1. Make no mistake…Ryan was under significant pressure from the right to name a fundamentalist Christian to the post. Catholics are just too liberal.

      1. Bunch of mackeral- snapping Commies.  

        Anyone who doesn't believe the earth was created 6,000 years ago as a home for the Republican Party is no better than a Lutheran!

    1. Twins, separated at birth?

      I wonder if state senator Michael Williams is any relation to state representative Dave Williams.
