Reality really sucks, doesn't it, Mitch...?

Administrators: budget will cut 6,000 teachers

Indianapolis, April 6

Parents, teachers, and students packed the Indiana Statehouse Wednesday to sound off. They filled the rotunda, stairwells and balconies to protest proposed cuts to education.

Melanie Wright is an educator. "I am furious. We are a small school corporation. We have already lost our Title One money this year. Now we are losing dollars next year and for the following year."

Protesters backed up their talk with signs reading "show me the money", "I love my school" and "stand up for public education." Crowd members chanted "No more Mitch. No more Mitch," referring to Governor Mitch Daniels.

State budget proposals include little increases for education. School administrators believe it will cost almost 6,000 teachers their jobs over the next two years.

aw, mitch... boo-hoo... cry me a river, build a bridge and GET OVER IT...! it's time for you to flip the digit to norquist, cato and any other morons who are putting pressure on you to toe the ideological line... you were elected governer of INDIANA, my man, and you better start figuring out how you can best serve the people who live THERE rather than listening to some pointy-headed coaches reading out of the playbook for a game that can't be won...
