We need vouchers, let parents send their kids to the school of their choice and not where the county or city dictates. The public system is a joke when at this time kids are still dropping out.

BO towed the line and just paid the NEA back for their support. Let me guess the first thing she will say: "We need more money for schools and teacher salaries". Yep, that's always the answer. Throw more money at it and ignore the inherent problems of a system with no real competition. Way to go.

Since here in California it's the Teacher's Union and the gang bangers that rule the schools, I figure some good ole Chicago style politics can't hurt. One thing for sure, here in California, I doubt we would even notice the difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-10750153336785553792008-12-22T21:57:00.000-06:002008-12-22T21:57:00.000-06:00fragapalozaAnd if the are dumb voters they will co...fragapaloza<BR/><BR/>And if the are dumb voters they will continue to vote for people who promise them free stuff, hope and change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-79142941664837570232008-12-22T19:14:00.000-06:002008-12-22T19:14:00.000-06:00fragapalozaAnd if the are dumb voters they will co...fragapaloza<BR/><BR/>And if the are dumb voters they will continue to vote for people who promise them free stuff, hope and change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-80045988706028687882008-12-22T17:18:00.000-06:002008-12-22T17:18:00.000-06:00RedGirlRisingBy appointing Arne-the-failure from C...RedGirlRising<BR/><BR/>By appointing Arne-the-failure from Chicago schools, Obama fulfills one of his movement's key objectives - Keep the kids dumb so they grow up to be dumb voters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-30229737431405116122008-12-22T13:44:00.001-06:002008-12-22T13:44:00.001-06:00lccatLet’s face it the goal of most of the leaders...lccat<BR/><BR/>Let’s face it the goal of most of the leadership of the teacher’s unions and most of the school administrators is not to educate our children but to guarantee jobs and financial support to cultivate their own little empires for their personal gratification, enrichment, and to most their Elitist agenda.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-2171697650366825382008-12-22T13:44:00.000-06:002008-12-22T13:44:00.000-06:00mmaineArne Duncan is qualified, after all he is Ob...mmaine<BR/><BR/>Arne Duncan is qualified, after all he is Obama's friend and basketball partner from Chicago.<BR/>What more do you need from someone to be the Education Czar. /sar.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your insight Kevin. <BR/>"Rant On"!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-57026556241362032722008-12-22T13:43:00.001-06:002008-12-22T13:43:00.001-06:00ZubataPolitical payback perhaps?Zubata<BR/><BR/>Political payback perhaps?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945339189639849796.post-41099882732037258022008-12-22T13:43:00.000-06:002008-12-22T13:43:00.000-06:00KJeffVAnother winner, Kev!
