Grotesque analogy of the day: Indiana Rep. Dave Cheatham. D-69, says his flight to Illlinois to deny Republicans a quorum and "make our schools better" is just like a brave soldier going to Afghanistan to protect people's freedom.
He actually gets applause for that shamless dreck, so he must be talking to a bunch of teachers.

If my kid was in his wifes class I'd pull him out. This is the kind of crap that gets foisted on kids and they grow up to be morons like this representative and probably his wife as well.
"See little Johnny? Your daddy is dodging bullets in a war in a country that stones women to death, just like my husband (the politician) was dodging reporters in Illinois. We have a lot in common Little Johnny, much like stoning women to death, here in America the mean old evil taxpayers are asking me to actually pay for a small portion of my million dollar lifetime pension! And they want me to only get a raise based on my performance instead of just because! We may even have to pay a deductible some day on our health insurance like 88% of American workers have to."
"Little Johnny, the "freedom fighting" analogies are virtually endless, now please ask your daddy when he gets back from WAR to vote for my husband so your daddy can pay more out of his soldiers salary (in taxes) to pay for MY benefits, ok little Johnny??"
Wonder how you pronounce his name? Cheetum? How appropriate.
