I know at least 15 teachers (one is my wife and another my mother in law) who do not buy into your lie Kadath. None of them is being paid by anyone.
They do however know a diaper load of teacher's union pukes and public school administrators who do. In fact it is the union pukes and 3 to 1 administration staff that are most frightened by this federal mandate holding them accountable for the disgusting and abominable education they are subjecting our children to. It isn't the well off who suffer they can go to private schools and guess what they do. It is the under-priveldged and minorities who suffer most since their CHOICE has been taken away.
To the issue at hand.
1. The DOE has been a disgrace for a long time. This doesn't make them any more of a disgrace. Just reinforces the disgrace that they are. Did you know that the DOE has bureaucrats who are permitted to carry firearms and do so on AIRCRAFT? WTF? We quibble about arming pilots, yet the DOE has armed employees on commercial aircraft? The DOE???? Who's running this asylum?
2. Every proposal that has ever come from any administration or legislator has been sold. EVERY SINGLE ONE of them. You will in the very near future be sold Social Security reform.
3. The biggest problem here is Armstrong Williams. He has lost all credibility and journalistic integrity. He violated the golden rule of journalism. Full disclosure. He should walk the journalistic plank. Career over.
A quick shout out to Senator Kennedy and President Bush for getting the NCLB act passed. I'm some what embarrassed that you needed to buy off some sack of shit hack to sell your platform, but thank you both for getting it done. It was largely an unconstitutional waste of tax payers money like most everything that comes out of DC...but at least they cared enough to try something. That can't be said for ANY OTHER politician in my lifetime on the subject of education.
