Let's start by saying what we've had enough of.

I've had enough of the Bush administration's stunning abuses of power.

I'm really sick of watching everything I believe in being systematically demantled: the right to a fair trial, separation of church and state, a woman's right to choose, our right to privacy, basic human rights ... the list goes on and on.

I'm so tired of their "deny, deny, deny" cover-up mentality and even more frustrated by how effective that strategy has been.

Enough!

Now it's your turn. What have you had enough of? See others' responses in the Had Enough? group.
Thanks to Jay for starting this group, Strengthen Our Schools, and giving us a place to discuss and hopefully take action on policy, both proposed and in effect, that relates to quality education in Wisconsin.

Everyone should read Jay's very detailed and instructive post on his blog Folkbum's Rambles and Rants. He takes on Congressman Mark Green's recently announced plans for education in Wisconsin, first showing us the weaknesses of the Congressman Green's so-called 70 percent funding plan. The blog posting describes Congressman Green's expansion of the Private School Voucher Program as a taxpayer-funded bailout of religious schools. It also dispels Green's assertion that the residency requirement in Milwaukee is a problem by citing a statistic that only 5 percent of teachers were bothered by the policy. The blog also highlights how Green's plan would essentially allow school districts to bypass collective bargaining over the issue of health care. Other Green ideas are summarized as a simple rehashings of tired, right wing boiler plate ideas.
