Sure, laugh now, but without union skill and training, you can bet a lot of kids had jelly oozing out the sides of their sandwiches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Note to POTUS; If you had even the slightest inkling of how the world really operates outside of your moronic bubble, you'd know what a school sales cycle is. You can put ALL the money into schools that you want and most of it won't be spent until next summer. Oh sure, they'll budget, and they'll plan and they'll schedule, but no one is buying anything requiring installation until the end of the school year. How can the most powerful man in the world, with access to the smartest minds in the world, not know this one, simple, School Purchasing 101 truth? But hey, hope is right around the corner. Third time this term. Edited September 13, 2011 by LABillzFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They SHOULD understand budgeting. They've passed two and are about to pass his third since he's been in office. No. Wait. Nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I was thinking more in lines of the stimulus bill passed outside the budgetary process. Money doesn't even grow on trees to these people...you just kind-of pick it up off the ground and throw it up in the air, and maybe it falls somewhere useful, and if not...hey, look, there's more money laying on the ground!

We refer to educational business as "the string of pearls." It's a phrase I heard years ago when I first moved to California, referring to airplanes preparing to land in LAX each night. You look into the evening sky and see a line (string) of white lights (pearls) as the planes come in one after another after another. The educational business (that is, the infrastructure stuff) starts lining up in March, and as the school year winds down we line up the projects that need to come in, plan them, schedule them, land them safely, and get commissioned before the summer is over and classes start again. But who knows. Maybe POTUS has invested half a billion of stimulus into a school ventilation company that can install brand new ventilation systems while kids are in class. I mean, it's possible, right? It's not like the kids aren't already getting sick. Removing the entire schools ventilation can't make it THAT much worse, right? Jesus. At some point this idiot just needs to STFU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe the string of pearls means you send a girl to school in California, and when she's old enough to graduate she can go into porn and get a pearl necklace Edited September 13, 2011 by /dev/null Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 "Shovel-ready was not as shovel-ready as we expected." Yes, the job was better suited for an entrenching device instead of a shovel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCinBuffalo Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yes, the job was better suited for an entrenching device instead of a shovel. The trouble is: most E-tools are black, not green. Therefore, it doesn't really fit in with the, Green, Shovel Agenda. Black looks like like coal, too. /crayonz Honestly: forget unicorns and rainbows....all the Republicans need to do is come up with a cartoon character based on a green shovel. Then, copyright it, and "open-source" license it to every candidate nationwide for free, or enough to cover the work, etc. This way, each person can be creative with it/mold it to their needs, but, the central theme remains the same. I am sure the campaign people could run wild with various local projects/wastes of money that failed to generate jobs....or cost $2mil per job, etc., and use Barry(?), The Green Shovel, to illustrate it. This way, every ad hits the local stuff, but always brings it back home to The Great Deliberator as well. Seems like a fairly efficient way to hit both levels at once, while also unifying the message. Hell that lizard works for Giegco, why not a green shovel character for this stuff?

BiggieScooby Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Let's follow the Ron Paul idea and bulldoze every school who needs public education it costs too much money! If you are too poor to send your kids to private school send them to the factory which was once the grounds where their old school stood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
