I have written here how I never thought I'd see the day anybody could be dumber than the previous squatter in the Oval Office, but the day arrived with the appointment of Duncan.
Lot of facts in Ohanian's piece, which was passed over for publication in the Huffington Post. Since the Post was a major cheerleader for Obama, it's not surprising any dissenting views on education aren't allowed.
Arne Duncan is much, MUCH worse than any previous secretary of education, for he has the money to achieve his goals for the destruction of public education and con states into following suit:
Certainly, there are lots of similarities in the misrepresentations, exaggerations, and downright lies offered by both US Secretaries of Education. And there's one huge difference: U. S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has been handed a money pot exceeding all dreams of previous U. S. Secretaries of Education. And of course, money doesn't just talk; it shouts and gains immediate apostles, willing to shake the tambourine for The Way. Certainly state governors and commissioners of education are rushing to jump whichever way Arne says. Local decision making for schools be damned. Just ship in the cash.
