CA GOP Calls for Education Cuts to Make People Stupid

Buoyed by Proposition 8 result that was strongly supported by the least educated Californians and opposed by the most educated, Republican state lawmakers unveiled a set of proposals today that would cut deeply into education spending.

The plan is the Republican's first comprehensive proposal since Governor Arnold Schwarznegger called a special legislative session to try to solve the state's Republican voter registration deficit.

The GOP plan to cut $15.6 billion in education spending would go far beyond the proposals from the Governor.  The largest chunk, nearly $10 billion, would come out of K-12 education, thus ensuring decades of stupidity in the state. "Clearly we're also going to have to decimate higher education to have an immediate impact, but this will ensure that we have a state full of morons for to foreseeable future," said Senate Minority Leader Dave Cogdill, R-Modesto.

Even if the plan is adopted in whole, the state would likely face declining Republican voter registration for years to come.
