Back to reality.
Obama, the education teacher.
…The kind of education a kid gives themselves on the streets or in jail that is apparently.
So much for improving education and making it more accessible to everyone, everywhere. He couldn’t have had something in place by now to avoid travesties like this? Oh right, he was too busy arrogantly putting all of his eggs in one basket for 15 months and not-so-secretly giving oral sex to Big Oil.

All I can think of is Palestinian school kids who learn math from text books that use guns as items being counted in the examples.
We’re raising an entire state populations to be the epitome of everything that is bad and just down-right embarrassing about white people. Super…. Maybe we should make an exception and let them secede. I guess that would be sort of disrespectful to Lincoln though.
How the hell do you fix a problem like that?

The Christian Right Conservatives suck big, sweaty, hairy, mis-shapen donkey balls. If people don’t learn an accurate portrayal of history, how the hell will they learn to avoid the same mistakes? Oh, that’s right. The goal is to drive us backwards. Fucking bastards.

Education is a bad thing? Is that where we are as a society? No wonder the ignoramuses believe Cable News Morons opinions to be gospel truth. Our society is becoming more and more ignorant of the world we live in. Doesn’t really bode well for the future.

Earth to Far Left – No one pulls support from Israel
UC Berkeley Student Senate Fails to Override Veto of Israel Divestment Measure
So… this is really news?
Earth to Far Left:
No one pulls support from the Israeli government even if they are keeping an entire people as prisoners of war in a fenced off area without a steady supply of food, energy, water, medical supplies, or education for their children.

Obama Appoints Education Secretary He Didn’t Trust With His Own Kids’ Schooling
Not much more I can say beyond the title. The important part is Arne Duncan loves schools that teach to the So What If A Child Is Left Behind tests.
