Too bad Americans are too apathetic not to demand the same thing of our Congress and the White House. These politicians are all worthless neoliberal birds of a feather.
The crowds in Cairo get angrier as they don't believe Mubarak is really gone for good:
Angry protesters, who had swarmed by the thousands into the streets here Friday morning, were hardly mollified by the news of Mr. Mubarak’s exit and an accompanying statement by the Supreme Council of the Egyptian Armed Forces over state television and radio. The protesters said they would not believe he was gone until he had formally relinquished his title as president, and until Mr. Suleiman, his handpicked successor, had been ousted as well.
The protesters did let out a cheer at news on state radio that Naguib Sawiris, a wealthy and widely respected businessman, has agreed to act as a mediator between the opposition and the authorities in carrying through the political reforms.
More is here.
Meanwhile, our country continues to engage in apathy while our leaders steal and destroy everything in sight.

Leave the ESDs alone in Oregon; it's much more cost-efficient to pool resources than to have duplicate services. Not to mention special education students will get the shaft if the programs are implemented by individual school districts.
Remember, special education is a big cash cow for school districts, and abuse is rampant, not to mention teachers are under extreme pressure to cheat for administrators.
I can't believe Kitzhaber thinks this is a good idea to ditch ESDs. He has NO fucking clue what goes on in education:
In his recommended budget released earlier this month, Gov. John Kitzhaber proposed cutting that funding and sending it instead directly to school districts. The move could starve some ESDs, but Kitzhaber says it would introduce competition and force the service districts to provide top-notch programs. School districts would have an option to continue using their ESD, find another provider or perform the services themselves.
You stupid, stupid asshole. This is special education services, which are mandated by federal law, and special education is widely abused in school districts because of the money.
You want tons of lawsuits? Just piss off sped students' parents.

Only a religious sect which devalues single people in general and single women in particular would create a conflict on whether to have sex outside marriage and long after most people have already "done it."
I never thought much of the Mormon faith because it is so sexist towards women.
