1. Well, it could not take more than two years to learn how to vaccuum, dust
scrub floors and find hidden dust bunnies? Or how to 'manufacture' burgers? These are the jobs of the 21st century. The people who hire these community college educated grads will have technical and manufacturing employees in India, the Phillipines and China.

6. Still waiting to hear what the Jobs of the 21st
century are supposed to be according to Forrest Gump Bush. I am betting the new century jobs have uniforms that smells like McDonalds burgers at the end of the day.

7. Didn't they gut funding to community colleges?
I seem to remember they pulled a lot of aid to community colleges. Is that right?
