They can't handle a school budget, let alone account for where money is spent in an accounting system where money is allocated to certain areas. When you want to spend more than what is allocated to an area, you have to document where the money is coming from. Yet, they STILL can't figure it out.<BR/><BR/>I guess that's what you get with super libs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5463472772679876402.post-18299209303726088802008-04-02T15:41:00.000-04:002008-04-02T15:41:00.000-04:00Also (same anon as above here), I remember Arlen S...Also (same anon as above here), I remember Arlen Spector and Tom Gannon's visits!

Who invited him?"<BR/><BR/>My understanding, from what I've heard from my father (a WSSD school board director) is that the WSSD was the only school district in the Delaware County (which is apparently heavily conservative) to welcome Obama.<BR/><BR/>Understandable, as the Swarthmore section of the school district is insanely liberal, and chock full of Obama fans. I should know, being a Swarthmoron myself (but still undecided on which candidate I prefer). :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5463472772679876402.post-24251408193975855162008-04-02T14:39:00.000-04:002008-04-02T14:39:00.000-04:00"Who invited him?

The Obama campaign approached the school district first, so they got in. I suspect they'd also welcome the others if they want to come.

The medical community lobbied long and hard to get people’s habits and poor personal choices designated as “diseases”, when they clearly are not, just so they could get paid to treat these “diseases”. <BR/><BR/>Alcoholism? Gambling addiction? Gimme a break. Those aren’t diseases; they’re just strong desires of weak people. <BR/><BR/>Not too many true diseases can be cured by simply saying No and making another choice.

You may want to check your facts on that. It is one of the only cureable fatal diseases. Try visiting a rehab and watch as everyone raises their hands to the question of whether or not they have a family member who is also an alcholic. It is hereditary. Some people may overcome the disease by not ever really being interested in alcohol - but boy, those that discover it are down a road to destruction. Check your facts please.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
