Shut the fuck up you piece of shit
Should be an interesting debate tonight... hope everyone plans to watch.
I'm watching the Drago-Balboa fight press conference tonight
Its the worlds most perfectly trained press conference
Have you seen the list of proposed cuts they would support? The vast majority of those cuts, virtually 3/4 of them, are cuts to programs that benefit the poor and support the arts and humanities. In a time when most school districts are cutting funding to the art programs the last thing we need to do is make further cuts to what little culture this nation has. It's been proven that regular exposure to the arts and music improves children's scores on I.Q. tests.or you could be realistic and vote for romney instead of throwing your vote away on a canidate and handing obumblesse another tour

Oh, and the other big cut is to Amtrak, when gas prices are rising and ridership is at the highest point it's been in ages. Unfortunately, rails are just like roads, they NEED to be maintained. Talk about energy independence, one of the ways we can become independent is by increasing the use of public transportation, not cutting funding to it.
An we can't keep dumping everything back on states. One, states are going bankrupt. Two, if you dump it on states, then that means increase in state taxes. Am I the only one that noticed that Ryan refused to answer Biden when Biden accused them of potentially eliminating the mortgage interest deduction?
Let's try it this way, since you didn't seem to completely read what I posted:Who gives a shit about arts funding when our nations math/sci rankings are in the toilet. Thats where the damn funding needs to go
David Sousa in his book How the Brain Learns offers the following on this topic as he cites the work of Vaughn and Winner from 2000 saying the study of the association between students taking arts courses and their SAT scores is one of the largest of its kind taking several years and involving over 10 million American high school students.
-Students who took arts classes had higher math, verbal and composite SAT scores than students who did not take arts classes.
-The more years of art classes, the higher the SAT scores
-Acting classes had the highest correlation with verbal SAT scores while Acting classes, music history, music theory or appreciation had the strongest relationship with math SAT scores.
Im in Texas rob, not exactly a swing state
When I'm out of town working I stay in a hotel with a bunch of OFT from texas. They somehow forget TX used to be a blue state and act like it's been republican central for the last 100 years.
gonna get it finsihed in november, it loks good ill get some pics up, u get any more ink
yep both pecs tatted up, touch up and added more shit to the sleeves.
one pec has a gnarly skull, the other pec and shoulder is bio-mechanical, gearing and shit like that pretty gnar.
pec tats hurt bro never again
No, I can't agree, sorry. I'm older than you and I've watched the science/math curriculum change from the time I went to school to when my kids went. In about 20 years science and math have become way more demanding, earlier. Logically you'd think if THAT was all that was needed, America's scores would have been going up. Meanwhile it's the art, music, phys. ed. departments that are losing funding and compared to other countries America lags. It can't be a coincidence.I didnt say eliminate arts, i said funding needs to be shifted to where its needed more which is math/sci. Surely you agree that a heavier focus on math/sci benefits our math/sci performance than more focus on arts in the hopes it flings off math/sci benefits.
Quit trying to be a badass...jk love ya bro

Not to mention the fact that if you cut arts and music, there's a huge percentage of children whose only exposure to art will be graffiti and the only music they'll ever hear is rap. Is THAT a healthy direction for the future? Kids who can't appreciate a Van Gogh or a symphony by Mozart?
Finally, not all brains work the same. A child who has no gift for math may be an artistic or musical genius, but if all they find is failure because they can't "get" math how will they ever find success if nothing else is offered (particularly if they come from a poor family that can't afford to send them for private music lessons or provide them with art supplies?)
It works very simply, the funding to schools is finite. The choice is to either get MORE funding from somewhere, or take funding from other areas. That's what's happening where I live. Funding is being cut to vo-tech and arts programs because there just isn't enough to go around. I already pay disgustingly high taxes (my property measures 75' x 135' and my yearly RE taxes are over $5,500, no lie -- and NO the teachers are NOT overpaid, Senators are overpaid, not teachers) so what do we do, raise property taxes even further, cut funding to other programs or ... wait for it ... hope the federal government will provide some additional resources since we spend a FRACTION OF A FRACTION of tax revenue on education compared to the DOD budget?!? What's more important, protecting this country now, or insuring it's success in the future? Apparently there is only enough money to fund one or the other.Once again, you keep saying Im eliminating arts altogether when Im saying the funding for math/sci should be the focus.
Please tell me you're joking ... some of the idiots on this board have no concept of sarcasm.Fuck art!

Oh, forgive me, of course there is no possibility that any child you fathered would be anything less than a stellar academic success. No chance any kid of yours will ever have their name embroidered on the shirt pocket of their uniform, right? RIGHT?!? No chance what so ever. Your child will be happy, successful, never need therapy, never have social anxiety or experience failure, will never be in an IEP or need special ed., medications or therapy.Lol @ your fit of projection there sweetheart!

Maybe. Maybe not. Guess what, when your kid DOES need that shit, when your kid DOESN'T learn at the rate and by the standards of public education, your eyes open real fast.
Dyscalculia is the math version of dyslexia. I'm a fucking math moron, can't handle anything beyond the most basic shit necessary to balance a checkbook. It's the primary reason why I'm a fucking life fucking failure. It's lots of fucking fun, here, read about it shithead: www.aboutdyscalculia.orgWhat the hell is Discalculia?
I swear BM, you could make a fortune at med schools for the students to evaluate you since you have every medical condition known to man
His daughter is pretty fucking awesome.
I'm biased, but I fully agree.
My son is fucking awesome too, despite the fact that he has ADHD as well as a Visual processing Learning disability and is on an IEP since 1st grade. He is however, excellent at Math. I think he gets that from me.
He did look pimp in his homecoming jacket.
He did look awesome. Did you see how much shorter he is than his friends? hahaha
I thought they were older kids. They've got a good foot on him.
teachers are overpaid, they work 9 months a year, get a shit load of days off during year -
oh and lol @ arts, more people need to learn to get a job than pain a damn picture
hehehehehehhehehe (I do love teachers just wanted to stir more shit up)
(I do love teachers just wanted to stir more shit up)
my wife's teaching salary is like 37k/year. are you serious??? that's where you think funding needs to be cut?
Get her to teach special ED. My mother taught severely emotionally disturbed kids as well as severely handicapped kids and made well over 100K/yr., she has full benefits from her teachers union until she dies and since CA is broke, they paid her to retire 3 years early so they could replace her with a cheaper teacher.
She was originally going to try special education but decided against it after talking to some of those teachers. I'm trying not to be disrespectful to the kids, but they basically said they change diapers all day.
Also, there's no teacher's union in GA. No teacher of any sort will ever make 100k here. Which, IMO, is overpaying anyway.
I didnt say eliminate arts, i said funding needs to be shifted to where its needed more which is math/sci. Surely you agree that a heavier focus on math/sci benefits our math/sci performance than more focus on arts in the hopes it flings off math/sci benefits.
I just came.

Teachers work 7 hours a day for 9 months out of the year. 37k is a fair wage.
37K is below the poverty line around here.

And yeah, I have a lot wrong with me, thank your parents or your gods or whatever you believe in that you don't have crap genetics 'cause I know I'm sooooo grateful to live in chronic daily pain. Torn tendons, DJD and osteoarthritis are just the motherfucking best on top of the PTSD, depression, low self esteem and anxiety my daddy beat into me.
yeah but CA is broke
Can i get a witness from the congregation !Not to get into a pissing contest since Im sure you win (lose?), but in the last 10 years Ive had 4 major surgeries, ear reconstruction surgery and the accompanying hearing loss, eustachian tube doesnt work, cant get any water in my ear whatsoever or its off to the doctor, torn tendons, torn miniscus, certain addictions stemming from childhood exposures/trauma, etc etc.
But I never bitch about it or think the government should pay for it or anything because what do I always say?
Life isnt fair.
You Americans should have kept Ron Paul he was your only hope. Now he'll be dead by next election
