Now there’s more inexplicable mayhem stemming from Dubya’s SOTU address. Apparently, he’ll more fully support medical science and medicine in general by freezing the NIH budget, and he’ll add 70,000 new math and science teachers by cutting education spending by 20%. That’s in addition to the state of confusion he perpetrated from his pulpit, the lie about foreign oil dependence, the lie about alternative energy, and the “clarification” that he wouldn’t really hire 70,000 new teachers but actually meant he’d retrain existing teachers — you know, the teachers whose budgets he’s cutting as I already pointed out.
You can’t believe a damn thing the idiot says.
