1. What's their fucking gripe this time?!!
Man, the GOP is always griping about something! It seems like every time I go on the Internet, I see the GOP bitching and moaning about something. Always bitching and moaning!

Why can't they just SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

This is getting really annoying! And tiresome!

3. Oh, that would open an interesting can of wormy things.
I've had so many professors who couldn't be bothered to teach because they had more interesting things to do. Yet they were paid. And lionized.

And let's not pay Congressmen while they're campaigning.

4. Harvard is a private institution.
So the GOP can't even try to fiddle with its finances, as they might with a state university.

5. Is the State of Texas paying their Gov? What about the US House?
Last I checked, Harvard wasn't publically traded nor under government fiscal control.
