Are you OK with California firing 9,000 teachers?

This is seriously wrong, imho...the news came out that because of the budget crisis, we're firing 9,000 teachers in our state. So education takes a back seat to expansion of the war in Afghanistan, the helicopters Bush ordered (that Obama hasn't canceled, yet) and the continued occupency in Iraq.

Given the shootings in Alabama recently...don't we need some domestic assistance from the Federal government? If we spend all our money on AIG & war...then we have nothing left here, and we become a nation of idiots. OR should GM, Citigroup and AIG really be put ahead of teachers in schools & I'm confused about priorities?
