Our immoral leaders have put a couple of band aids on the gash at Ordean and the News Tribune heralds it on the front page with this asinine headline.

Design tweaked to ease traffic at Ordean school site

The reporter does skeptically acknowledge that some people won’t consider the tweaks much of a fix:

Neighbors of the site probably would disagree. Community members on the east end have organized into an opposition group that is calling for the district to switch sites because they believe the Ordean site is too small for a high school.

But Board member Judy Seliga-Punyko is effusive in her praise of the half-ass tweak. She fairly gushes:

“I just really appreciate what you have done. … Right now Ordean is nuts in the morning,”

Oh, and this tweak will sure fix everything when the traffic quintuples.
