'actually spending your time worrying about what we're doing up here, I don't want you to do that. Go back home.'
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIqPIb3vug0> These are the remarks of the ranking GOP member of Iowa state Senate's Education committee, addressing students (who were all student leaders like student body president, etc) who came to testify to the Legislature about funding cuts to the University system: "TRANSCRIPT OF SENATOR SHAWN HAMERLINCK'S COMMENTS: "I do not like it when students actually come here and lobby me for funds. That's just my opinion. I want to wish you guys the best. I want you to go home and graduate. But this political fear, leave the circus to us OK? Go home and enjoy yourselves. I want to thank you for joining us and though I have to concede, your time speaking before us is kind of a tad intense. It's probably a pretty new experience. You probably prepared for it for days and you sat there in front of us trying to make sure your remarks were just right, and that's a good thing. But actually spending your time worrying about what we're doing up here, I don't want you to do that. Go back home. Thanks guys." What an astounding level of contempt for the people he's been elected to represent. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "StrataList-OT" group.
