The Journal Sentinel has a semi-whine piece written by Megan Twohey that the UW system has become “too expensive” for the state’s poor. While the online edition has a couple links ot past stories about the recent abuses of the UW board of regents, the print version doesn’t make any kind of connection between the story and the pay raises being sought by said board of regents or between the story and the out-of-state tuition cut sought by said board of regents (yes, you heard me right; at a time when the state’s poor “can’t” afford UW, they want to cut tuition for the out-of-state crowd only). Further, neither version points out the “backup” jobs, or the outrageous salaries of underworked professors, or the Jim “Craps” Doyle plan to give in-state tuition to illegal invaders. Instead, Megan trots out the same tired lieberal lines of causes, then blindly bleats out Craps’ plan to have the taxpayers pay for college for every “B” student in the state as the “solution”.
Yet the RepublicRATs wonder why we want a strong WTPA, and the presstitutes wonder why they’re no longer taken seriously.
