Rachel exposes how one man overruled local elected officials to order the closing of this Public High School.


Apparently Republicans are against People being educated and learning the life skills that will make them productive citizens.



Protest at the school at Noon today, for those closeby. Please attend if you can.

From all the articles bemoaning the closure of this paragon among schools, it would certainly appear that the DPS is tossing a bunch of teens and their babies out on the street, just throwing them all away, for no reason at all.  But wait...

DPS To Close 44 Schools, Demolish Others
Some Of Detroit's Oldest High Schools Will Be Demolished

Students from the Nancy K. Boykin and Catherine Ferguson schools will be moved to a new Catherine Ferguson facility for pregnant teenagers located inside of the Westside Multicultural building.

OOPS!!  I looks like all those teens will still have a school!!  **gasp**  It's enough to make a person wonder what the real problem is.  It couldn't be that the teachers are putting their own jobs above the steps the school district must take to become financially stable, could it?   Tsk, tsk, tsk...

DUmmy Scuba must be another victim of the Republicans.
She uses the Pam Dawson stylebook in her writing, complete with random capitalization.

.....it would certainly appear.....

But wait...

OOPS!!

Have you noticed, madam, that we're having to do that sort of thing more and more often?

[franksolich]

Uh oh.

Is there any man still alive, who can remember when Republicans had any say in running Detroit?

If not so, how about is there any man still alive, who had a grandfather who could, if he were still alive, remember when Republicans had any say in running Detroit?

Well, with nadinbrzhzhzhski still in Mexico, I was able to access the google servers. It appears Detroit was a solidly Republican city until 1962, and has been solidly democrat ever since, as white Detroiters went on the endangered species list, and then disappeared entirely. The Republicans of decades past were all crooks, and the democrats have maintained that tradition without exception.

Well, I guess "1962" puts it in "current events."

But really, 1962 was.....49 years ago.

Odd. I thought the DUmp was in favor of this type of action.

Now that, ladies and gentlemen, is an epic facepalm.
