Return From Windy Peak
I drove up to Windy Peak and picked up Jennifer this afternoon. Jefferson County has some deal where the take the kids up into the hills for a week when they're in the sixth grade and it's sort of like being at camp, but you're still at school. They teach the kids all about the evils of Global Warming and Capitalism and practice their Obama chants. It ends tomorrow (Friday), but I had planned on picking up Jen at about 5:00 today all along, as we're flying to NC tomorrow for her great-grand mother's 90th birthday party.
I was surprised yesterday, however, when Jennifer called me from the clinic saying her stomach hurt. So I ended up on the phone with the nurse wanabee and was trying to sort out what was going on. She seemed to think that Jennifer was just faking it so that I'd come pick her up sooner because she was homesick. And I was like "Well maybe I should come get her sooner than I'd planned". And the nurse is like "Well, we don't do that. I've never allowed a kid to go home early because they were homesick."
I despise these malignant bureaucratic warts more than words can say and I was like "I'm not asking for your permission to come pick up my daughter, because I certainly don't need it. If I want to bring her home, I will. It's my decision. Not yours."
I love the bureaucrats. They think that they own your children. I seriously think that it's time for a revolution. I'm talking about wiping the slate clean. Disbanding the federal government.
And we could do it without firing a shot. All we have to do is 1) get a balanced budget amendment passed and 2) repeal all forms of governmental funding. I'm talking about repealing Income Tax, Property Tax, Sales Tax, you name it. Then we could begin dismantling the Public School System, Welfare, Social Security, Medicare. We'll send all the parasites on the public payroll home. Kick them off the teat of the socialist public sector and find out if they are capable of providing value to our society.
We'll raise a new flag, call it "America - Take 2", and go back to the original constitution. If we flushed 230 years of "stare decisis" down the commode, it wouldn't bother me one bit.
