We Should Be So Lucky

Quote:Education officials expect ‘ineffective’ Betsy DeVos to step down as her agenda collapses: report
Quote:In a comprehensive profile, Politico said billionaire evangelical Christian DeVos has found herself stymied by the bureaucratic restraints on her job, but that bringing about change in Washington requires “time, patience and government savvy — three things she does not have.”
DeVos, said Politico’s Tim Alberta, is on a “religiously infused journey to reimagine the relationship between government, parents, teachers and schools.”
The Secretary wants to allow parents more freedom to withdraw their children from public schools and enroll them in charter schools, religious schools and private schools. What makes DeVos radical is she wants federal tax dollars to follow those children out of the public school system.
These religitards really need to be slapped down. What they want are xtian madrassas churning out good little republicunts!

The Fabulous Billionaire Leadership Club really isn't worth a shit when it comes to conducting public business, are they?
Who knew governing (as opposed to buying your preferred outcomes) could be so hard?

They aren't that good at buying their preferred outcomes either, or they wouldn't need all that corporate welfare and billionaire tax relief.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Nah, they get the corporate welfare and tax relief because they are good at buying their preferred outcomes -- i.e., outsized political influence.

They get that because our government is filled with craven pieces of shit..it has nothing to do with skill.
