RALEIGH, N.C. -- Gov. Mike Easley did himself no favors with legislators when he announced that he planned to move forward with his education initiatives with or without their backing.
Even lawmakers from his own Democratic party were angered by the move last week, with many questioning his constitutional authority to take the steps.

Are we sure that he's not on something? Where's he going to find all these teachers? Why not just ask them to teach for free? (It's for the children dontcha know!)

Impeach Easley. This jerk has claimed even a right to impose water restrictions on towns not short of water - without any claim as to what law allows that.

Impeach Easley Works for me. Claiming powers he doesn't have, blaming us greedy taxpayers for the budget shortfall(s)...

HEY!! A four year old is only four once. Someone that makes a comment like that you can't expect much of. Let's see where his power is when the state houses turn Republican

A four year old is only four once We're certainly dealing with a mental giant. < /sarcasm
I think that people who put their kids in "More for Four" or "Smart Start" should be charged with child neglect. Raise your own children, dagnabbit!
