k-mad finds something to get pissed off enough about to get off his ass and post something cranky (cont'd)
News item -- Public schools Tibetans attend give short shrift to the Tibetan language, emphasizing Chinese instead. Ethnic Chinese hold most jobs, and Tibetan civil servants can be fired if their homes contain the traditional Buddhist shrine: a Buddha statue with incense sticks in front. Portraits of the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan leader who has been in exile since 1959, are prohibited.

If you repeat a lie often enough, you are a Republican (cont'd)
From American Progress:
RIGHT-WING HYSTERIA: The few right-wing lawmakers who continue to stand with Bush have rallied around an imaginary provision in the SCHIP bill, claiming it provides health insurance for undocumented immigrants. Rep. Steve King (R-IA) said the bill provided care for "illegals and their parents." Rep. Nathan Deal (R-GA) engaged in similar demagoguery, claiming the bill was a "multi-billion giveaway to illegal aliens." The SCHIP legislation does not cover undocumented immigrants. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities reports that "undocumented immigrants have never been eligible for regular Medicaid or SCHIP," and the current bill "maintains this prohibition."
