The Junkyard Dog Goes Up Against TeePaw

Or, We Need To Learn To Play With The Cards We've Got...


You will recall that OurLeader was complaining to his friends at the Strib prior to the Christmas break about the tin cup approach to higher education funding. Therein he threatened junk-yard dog behavior.


Our governor, Tim Pawlenty (fondly known in these parts as TeePaw) has been busy in New Hampshire with his campaign to be John McCain's running mate. But he is now back in the state and has thrown the junkyard dog a hamburger laced with cyanide.


You see we have some bridges in Minnesota that need fixing and much of the budget is devoted to that task. Consequently the ambitious aspirations of OurLeader for megabucks have been slashed by the guv.
