Speaking!

Jerry Brown, who is a bit whiter than you would expect a mayor of Oakland named "Brown" to be, had some stuff to say, but after you filter it through the Daily Cal reporting filter, it becomes some very strange stuff to say.

His main strategy for work as an attorney general is similar to his approach in overseeing Oakland for the past eight years, with a focus on reducing crime and establishing charter schools to improve the city from the ground up, he said.

Yes, apparently, establishing charter schools is part of the duty of the Attorney General.

"You cannot treat 'unequals' equally," he said. "Everyone wants to distribute things equally but that just doesn't work."

All right, so he's an elected official talking about schools, so you sort of know what he's trying to say. But strip away that background, plop a white hood on his head, and read the same quote, and you'll be surprised at what you see.

I give up on the world. Seriously. Does everything need to be a war? Can we not talk about politicians and their comments and find humor in them without "failing to comprehend"? Do we all lack the balls to put a name and e-mail beside our comments?

And of course you, a visitor who stops by because of a search, who has no idea what this blog is about, who doesn't read this blog, doesn't know the focus of this blog, want to call me out on a 'lack of comprehension.' Fascinating.
