Dems elect another nitwit.....

and in a truly multi-ethnic city like New York, you think this is inappropriate, why?

Maybe we should put all the muslims and hindus on the rack like Torquemada did and "convert" them all to Christianity so that we'd have fewer school holidays?
 
New York City public school kids getting new Muslim, Lunar New Year holidays
Mayor de Blasio said Monday that he’d move forward with closing schools for Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, two Muslim holy days, and for Lunar New Year. But he was hesitant regarding Hindu festival Diwali.

Gotta move with the times bravs, the demographic is changing.

Btw, were you all angry with bush when he commemorated Eid-al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha with postage stamps?
 
Why yes... I can vividly remember Nova's genuine outrage at Bush... he was furious with him and was demanding a congressional investigation....

or wait... I got that wrong....that didn't happen. EVER.

Nova spent eight years rimming Bush's anus... after a while all the shit started tasting good to him.
 
My first thought was shouldn't these kids being staying in school more, not less?

(Of course if it was a national holiday I'd be hypocrite and say great)
 
Much more interesting is that fact that Democrat de Blasio cut $210 million from charter school funding and won't allow them to be co-located any more.


I wonder which powerful union wanted that? :dunno:
