ok... What the fuck is with the drug testing of high school kids? Who really thinks this is a good idea? What is the plan to do to the kids that piss hot? Kicked out of school? Juvi? Sent to the tard school? Think of all the kids who smoked doobage on the weekend in highschool. If they were tested and pissed hot on Monday...what hell their home life would be.. if they were kicked out of school. Couldn't get into a good college because of a record. Of all the problems, how can this rate as something that our government needs to fund and oversee?

Bush and the other Republicans are always talking about limiting the control of the central government in our lives, but every time I blink, they are crawling up my uterus or checking out library check out access.

Where are the hydrogen cars he was talking about last year? What about the millions of dollars for AIDS help in Africa? What an ass face.

all that stuff is actually already here just not in great enough demand so their markets are slowly dieing.


as for the drug testing..what happens when they come across one of kids that their meds have similar properties to the current illegal drugs? boot them?

paranoia in schools today are getting out of hand.

I was wondering the same.. how is sudoephedrine gonna show up? What if a kid is on Ritilin or any other central nervous system stimulant? I know the parents can provide proof of the Rx to the school, but what if they don't want to? What if the student didn't want to disclose the disability? They Don't and shouldn't have to. The stigma that comes along with that can be a real bitch. Bush is a evil troll.

I find it quite ironic how the mantra of the Republicans is "less government." Of course, they want less gov't when it comes to taxes, business and industry regulation, and gun ownership.

But when it comes to things they don't like, such as abortion, drugs, privacy rights, homosexuals, birth control, and other controversial issues, it seems like the government can't be big enough.

Forget the fact that industries can run roughshod over our environment, the rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer, there aren't enough jobs, soldiers are dying overseas, and my neighbor can own an AK-47. I need someone to protect me from myself and my own personal choices!

Oh, and what American really needs right now is a mission to conquer the moon and Mars and make the solar system safe for American hegemony. Don't you agree?
