This article has an interesting discussion of the value of term limits, but its completely irrelevant to the fact that the voters of Nevada determined they wnated term limits, and now we have them. If Reid wants to continue to do nothing in Congress after 2010, then he can petition the voters to change their mind. If he does otherwise, I think he'll discover that he may lose his seat regardless.
Nice. Why is it that every election cycle we hear the war cry of improving education and giving teachers decent salaries, and yet when budget cuts come down, it seems that education is always first on the chopping block. Is it really so difficult to see that quality education is tied to everything from real estate values to crime rates? Yes, it takes a few years to realize monetary benefits of improved schools, but I think we can hold out that long if we make it a priority.
This is a nice first step, and the thinking is in the right place, but its well past time that Nevada put some serious invesment into alternative energy infrastructure to move towards making this state the leader in energy self-reliance. Call it step one in taking the power away from the middle east.
I find it sad that so many of our Congressmen can wave the flag so vigorously about supporting our troops by not questioning the war, and yet they can stand by and leave those same troops swinging in the wind after they've returned from their duty.
I'd say its about time to show some true appreciation for what those men and women have done for us.
