WMD's discovered!!

In an amazing turn of events, WMD's have apparently been discovered right here in America.

These Weapons of Mass Delusion (WMD's) are actually negative political campaign ads that result in American's believing the worst about every possible candidate running for office.

These smear campaigns ultimately help the candidate doing the best smear job get elected but the side effect is that Americans continually lose respect for politicians and ultimately the democratic process.

It's a shame that when WMD's (Weapons of Mass Delusion) were finally discovered they were actually tools of American political advisors whose main role is to get their candidate elected by any means possible, even if it means America loses.

Or... am I the only one tired of negative political ads about how the other guy is a jerk and a moron?

How about a simple ad that says this is what I believe and this is what I will do if elected. Then we can throw out the ones that say one thing and do another.

Unfortunately, negative ads work - but only for the candidate elected, not for the rest of America.

Vote next Tuesday and stop this insanity!

I have to wonder though, almost every ballot choice we have is portrayed as flawed, a crook or 'not working hard enough' by their opposition.

Is it any wonder we have no confidence in our elected officials after the election?

Off Topic, but have a thought about something I'd like to see added. I'd love to have access to my children's lunch accounts online. It would make it easier to know when we need to send in more money. Thanks.

Off Topic:

Next year we will be adding another module to our current "Parent Portal" with Harmony software. We wanted to make sure that the current Parent Grade Portal worked well before we added more.

This new lunch module will not only allow a parent to access their child's acccount online to see the balances, but you will even know what they ate for lunch if you want.

Did they spend that extra dollar on a snack or did they pocket it to save up for that new computer game you wouldn't buy them? :-)
