6) CPS CHAOS. The murder of one small child at Christmas last year and two more
in 2004 prompt calls for an investigation into Child Protective Services. A
juvenile judge resigned, and state officials dispatched a "Child Protective
SWAT Team" to sort out the mess.

And of course, not ONE CPS AGENCY PASSED FEDERAL AUDIT REVIEWS.

All incompetent, inept, unbusinesslike, have no creative thinkers, all moribund
systems stuck repeating the same old, same old which has resulted in virtually
no help or solace for children or families.

Deaths held steady both before and after CAPTA enactment in the 70's.

It was your typical pass fail, but with the bar held impossibly high.
Yet, many states got good to top marks in some of the areas under
review, and good marks but just below the bar in others.

Why do you persist in this blatant lie, Neal?

The federal government didn't measure in those terms. Failing in one
area did not equate with "failure." Not even in six of the seven
reviewed.

Shows the three year numbers and trends, 1999 - 2001. Take a look for
yourself. At least know what you are lying about.

Pay attention to the last chart at the end of the report that shows
state after state improving in the various areas assessed.

"Table 14. States meeting the national standards in 2001 for the six
measures for which national standards were established."

Claims are not proofs. Yours are obviously driven by your insanity.

Deaths held steady both before and after CAPTA enactment in the 70's.

Are you prepared to argue that child deaths would have held and
remained steady if there was no CPS?

"Deaths" are not the issue. Homicides are. Child "deaths" are not a CPS
mandated issue. Abuse and neglect caused deaths are.

And what significance to your arguments against CPS does this unchanged
rate hold? (Using somewhat questionable data I might add....considering
it does not include FBI/DOJ data).

An agency under increasing strain over time, with lack of funding,
unwarranted attacks by media, and general whipping boy public bias, and
it manages to keep the rate constant? I'd call that a miracle. Not a
fault.

It will be losing this particular battle soon as the figures come in
for 2004. The meth epidemic fallout is just barely begun being counted.


"It won't be long now." From 1998....R R R R R ...priceless.

I guess if you are writing a new Gibbons, History of the World, six
years and running isn't much, but in the real world that's becoming
something of a chuckle, Neal.
