Actually, what Walker did was get the blood-sucking union leeches off the
necks of the taxpayers.

And Perry has destroyed it in Texas. Teachers are finally in revolt
over the stupidity of tests that mirror not knowledge of students but
their limited memorization skills. Scandal after scandal has revealed
that the results from the state’s TAKS and STAAR tests have been
rigged. We’re graduating dummies who don’t know how to write a simple
declarative sentence, who can’t spell, who can’t divide or do
fractions or balance a checking account, and who have no fundamental
understanding of biology — except for sex acts — or chemistry. They
excel, however, at texting and boozing while driving, and texting and
taking calls during interviews for jobs at Walmart.

There's no such thing as failing a math problem any more. The new
'Common Core' math standards allow kids to figure out any answer they
want, so long as it feels good to them.

Texas Conservatives Win Curriculum Change
By JAMES C. McKINLEY Jr.
Published: March 12, 2010


"AUSTIN, Tex. � After three days of turbulent meetings, the Texas Board of
Education on Friday approved a social studies curriculum that will put a
conservative stamp on history and economics textbooks, stressing the
superiority of American capitalism, questioning the Founding Fathers�
commitment to a purely secular government and presenting Republican
political philosophies in a more positive light.

Mary Helen Berlanga accused fellow members of the Board of Education of
�rewriting history.�
The Lede Blog: Textbooks a Texas Dentist Could Love (March 12, 2010)

The vote was 10 to 5 along party lines, with all the Republicans on the
board voting for it."

And if the board had been predominantly Dems, they would
have also voted along party lines and implemented the typical
Leftist curriculum, where America is blame for all the world's
ills, etc.

The answer is to get politics out of the schools by letting the
parents call the shots at a local level, via school vouchers.

They are MY kids (if I had any) and it's MY tax dollars, it
should be MY decision.

America spends more money per public school student that almost any other
country in the world, yet our public school system is a disgraceful
failure in terms of learning levels and drop out rates. If you want to
see just how bad our public schools are, watch "Waiting For Superman" and
"The Cartels" - both available on Netflix.

If you really want to improve America's public school system you need to
take five (5) steps:

1. Eliminate the Department Of Education. A $90 billion dollar a year
cluster fuck of red tape, idiotic rules and bureaucrats that are literally
tripping over themselves.

2. Eliminate the huge teacher's unions that don't give a shit about our
kids, their education or whether or not they learn anything that will make
them productive in the workplace.

3. Eliminate teacher tenure and make teacher's accountable for their
performance, their results and for their conduct.

4. Implement a comprehensive student voucher program that let's parents
decide which school their children attend. The bad schools close, the
good schools thrive and the parents have more to say about what their
children are taught. In addition, any parent that pays tuition for their
children to attend a Catholic or private school should be exempt from all
public school taxes.

5. Hire some people with real world business experience (not just the
usual collection of career academics) to look at the school system and
identify ways to eliminate fraud, waste, corruption and duplication. And
implement these changes to improve the overall efficiency of the public
school system.

Liberals say they are willing to consider opposing points of view, but are
always shocked, angry and outraged to find they exist.

It's looking more and more like he won't finish out his second term.
