Tammy Duckworth credits govt assistant, public schools


Posted: Sep 4, 2012

her achieve her remarkable accomplishments in her adult years.  She's such an inspiration for women, minorities, veterans and "wounded warriors," all of whom got short shrift or ignored in last week's RNC.  Her speech was a knockout.

Is Discrimination In Our Public Schools Acceptable?Feb 21, 2014
I am appalled that in 2014 this question even is asked.  Apparently there are those that do not think the government should be involved in matters of discrimination.  If not the federal government, then who?  Anti-discriminaton is a federal law and needs to be enforced just like any other law.  Below on this board there is a post regarding an article of outrage because the Departments of Justice and Education sent out a letter to schools regarding discriminatory punishm ...

Is An Admin Assistant Course Worth It? Jun 30, 2016
I am considering taking an administrative assistant course. It costs almost $4000 and is supposed to touch upon office procedures, medical billing (not in depth), EMR, conflict resolution, among other useful subjects. This is cheaper than my community college and can be done at my own pace, within reason, from home. I need to get out of my almost min-wage MT job, but having been an MT for 25+ years, my non-MT skills are lacking. Completion of such a course seems to have multiple paths, in and ou ...

Obama Tax CreditsNov 17, 2009
I have been out of the country for a bit for my daughter's wedding so have lost all touch with US news and events.  Need to get caught up once again.  I have lost all touch with what is going on in the health care debate (can someone please share what happened with the House vote on their bill?), as well as everything else, but will admit I have had some change of heart during my trip due to many people we met from the UK, Canada and Nova Scotia including a cou ...

Schools Are Blunt About New Pot Law: Not On Our CampusNov 10, 2012
Colleges in the land of legalized pot say they still won't allow students to smoke marijuana. 12:08PM EST November 10. 2012 - Social media is abuzz with future college students dreaming of doing bong hits openly on the greens of universities in Colorado and Washington state. But those dreams may go up in smoke. "If someone thinks they are going to walk around campus smoking a joint, it's not going to happen," says University of Washington spokesman Norman Arkans. Although voter ...

NRA Wants Armed Guards In SchoolsDec 21, 2012
Of all the ways in which we could respond, this, in my opinion, is the most stupid. It should be noted that "good guys with guns" are not impermeable to gunfire. Fighting fire with fire is not the way for our society to evolve. The CDC is barred - legally BARRED - from releasing data on gun deaths because the NRA is such a strong lobby. Until which time this data is made available, the NRA should keep both sides of their mouths shut. And shame on all the spineless legislators who bow to the ...

This Is Why We Can't Let Liberals Run Amok. Schools Implanting IUDs In Jul 03, 2015
Seattle, the 2nd or 3rd most liberal city in the US, where minimum wage is $15 with businesses moving out of the city limits, and socialists get elected to the city council.  Meanwhile, over the past 15 years the place has become a dump and a haven for the Great Unwashed, just like San Francisco. Absolutely nothing this city does surprises me anymore.  Honestly, I have no idea how liberals can stand to look at themselves in the mirror these days. ...

Obama Says NCAA Should Require Schools To Give Guaranteed ScholarshipsMar 22, 2015
Add President Obama to the list of people who thinks college athletes deserve more than they get. In an interview with the Huffington Poston Friday, the president said that the NCAA should require schools to offer guaranteed athletic scholarships “no matter what.” "Students need to be taken better care of because they are generating a lot of revenue here," Obama said.

Public Option Hot Again?Oct 12, 2009
The group, America's Health Insurance Plans, released a report claiming that the new health care reform bill will drive up insurance premiums because not everyone will be forced into the system. Without a very large pool that includes healthy people, the insurance companies insist, they will have to pay out too much. (I'm crying crocodile tears here.) This might bring the public option back strongly if the dems finally say, "Enough of this crap!" We can only hope. NJ ...
