What our illustrious president refuses to recognize is currently
well over half of the college graduates we now have are
unemployed. They leave college and are unable to find jobs. So
it appears we have a president who is going to veto a jobs bill
(Keystone) that will provide jobs and tax dollars, and wants to
pas a bill that will cost every working American and provide no
jobs and no tax dollars. Can we say clueless?

A C+ average?
A monkey can hold a C+ average at most public schools now days.
Just show up and sit in for the majority of the classes
scheduled and they graduate.
The kids in most of school districts in this country that
graduate from high school can't even read at above the 4th grade
level.
Unless the requirements for this free education are made tougher
it will be a waste of money. Kids will go and goof off. If it
doesn't cost them anything they won't care about the wasted tax
payer money.

Obama and clueless are synonymous.
Everyone knows that.

Well, everyone that can distinguish rational from irrational
thinking knows that. Unfortunately, people who do not fit into
that category are far more commonplace than you would ever want
to admit. HIS BASE! :o
What I think might be at work is a political game of chicken.
With the House and Senate able to able to vote on repealing all
of his signature legislation he puts up this "important"
education funding plan that he knows the Republican would never
support just make them look bad. Keep my AHC in place and I
won't push this bad bill. That way we both win. ;)

Ah...but Americans graduating with less student loan debt will
be able to take lower-paying jobs! And that's what they'll
get if we flood the market with college graduates holding
worthless degrees.
Colleges will grab all the free government money they can,
inflating grades to keep failing students in the classroom and
generating tuition.
Students will graduate with 2-year degrees they can barely
read. College will become the new high school, where everyone
with a pulse graduates. And it'll only cost $30 billion or so.

I've noticed that the people who have had to work their way thru
college on their own usually appreciate it more and apply
themselves to getting an education rather than goofing off and
partying.
