Grassley's had his moments on other things, but the independent Republican is going the way of the dodo.<br /><br />Nice to see some guts here.Dukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16535645107179796099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-55818484778382042542011-08-02T10:13:42.936-07:002011-08-02T10:13:42.936-07:00But my essential point is in Iowa, the state U'...But my essential point is in Iowa, the state U's are the church. Private u's are seen as somewhat lesser ("Whatzamatter with you? You're not going to Iowa, Iowa State or UNI? Jeez, you must have bombed the ACTs"). <br /><br />Private for-profit u's? Beyond the pale. So, Grassley is going to be a pit bull on this. He's not the brightest bulb in the box, but when he gets a burr in his saddle....calugghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181162384964123706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-14415882704305662882011-08-02T08:16:17.350-07:002011-08-02T08:16:17.350-07:00Yep - like I said, nothing to see here.

He's from Iowa....where public education is the state church (K-University). I spent 6 years in Des Moines (1985-1991), and was always impressed by the devotion the state residents had towards public education. <br /><br />If Grassley smells a rat, lord help the suspected rodent. He can be down right "pit-bullish" on some things. <br /><br />Stay tuned....calugghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181162384964123706noreply@blogger.com
