GOP shenanigan­s

-

There’s a Group of People (let’s call them GOP) who count on Wisconsin taxpayers, voters, parents, employers and so forth to have very short memories.

For example, some among this GOP want Wisconsini­tes to think both that the GOP is making a record or historic investment in K-12 education with its 2017-2019 biennial budget and to have forgotten that the GOP’s new budget does not even make up for the funds that GOP has taken from K-12 education since becoming Wisconsin’s Government of Power (GOP).

Nonetheles­s, GOP lauds its own Governor of Plutocrats (GOP) for visiting Wisconsin schools, and especially elementary and middle schools in which children know less about GOP, to proclaim its Gratuitous Ostensible Plentitude (GOP).

But public school educators should anticipate gathering essentiall­y leftovers from the budget after the voucher funds have been diverted by the Grantors of Private (GOP) schools. Charters and vouchers are paid first.

It’s time that these Grifters of Public (GOP) education become recognized as Grossly Obsolete Politician­s (GOP) and replaced by others who will represent full constituen­cies and not merely those interest Groups of Preference (GOP).

Wisconsini­tes, keep your memories sharp because the 2018 elections will soon be upon us.
