Brownback replies to the waitress


Gov. Sam Brownback, archangel in the Republican Paradise of Kansas, took the high road in his reply to the waitress who criticized his massive cuts to education when she returned his bill for a meal.  But Clay Barker, the GOP Executive Director, got down and dirty.


Brownback:  "“That’s the person’s opportunity to say what they’d like to. I hear it both ways different times and different places,” said Brownback."


Barker:  “So you are publicizing her arrogant stupidity and utter ignorance. Typical liberal KS media,” and “Why would the Kansas media, well-known for its frequent liberal, anti-Brownback disposition, go to such lengths to highlight a rude comment from a single individual?”


I have an answer for you, Mr. Barker:  because what the governor is doing is really bad for your state, and the liberal media has every right to illustrate in different ways that it doesn't sit welll with the citizens of your state.  Your unthinking adherence to the tenets of Republicanism in Kansas, and the similar thought processes of its GOP citizenry, will drive the state to ruin the same way that the captain's adherence to course and speed drove the Titanic into an iceberg.


Good luck with that.
