Last year, while then-candidate Barack Obama was still going on and on about how he would have nothing - absolutely nothing - to do with special interest groups, the National Education Association Representative Assembly was adopting 12 new exciting resolutions. While then-candidate Barack Obama was assuring American voters that he wouldn't as much as spit on a special interest group, even if it were on fire, the NEA shocked the world by endorsing Barack Obama for President. Of course, in Obamacratic terms, the NEA isn't really a special interest group to begin with - the same way earmarks aren't really earmarks, and increasing the deficit isn't really increasing the deficit. They are about education - and that, by golly, transcends politics.

Take two of these twelve non-political, non-biased, agenda-free, straight-down-the-middle resolutions adopted last year by the NEA ...

I knew it had to be Cesar, but figured they were likely to be fans of Hugo too. Of course birthdays don't normally become holidays until the person is dead. (They may make an exception for Barack in a year or two.)

They need to take the word "bondage" out of the apology since a lot of white people had ancestors who were indentured servants here, or serfs in Europe. Naturally the reason for the "apology" is to set the stage for reparations (which presumably will be given to everyone of African ancestry, apart from Afrikaners, regardless of whether they had any ancestor who was a slave in the US).
