    That would be huge, and awesome.

    And never getting past the House, or the Senate.

    It helps a lot when you include coal as "clean". Hell, we might be there already under that definition.

    Boehner seems to have fashioned his lapel ribbon into some kind of leaping white tiger.

    Oh god I can't unsee it.

    Biden should reach over and fix it for him.

    Boehner looks like you could crack a brick on that stony face.

    I love when Obama says stuff about millions being able to finally afford college.

    ...and Bohener won't clap.

    You're...against kids going to school? How do these people get elected?

    Teacher where? High school teachers don't get paid enough to live.

    Neither do television production workers.

    But at least as a teacher I can go home feeling like I did something good and productive instead of peddling hype and misinformation to the lowest common denominator.
