anon While GOP state lawmakers are behind privatization efforts, it is OBAMA AND DUNCAN who are responsible for the destruction of public education in the United States.

Nothing much happened prior to Obama getting into office. Once this fraudulent "Democrat" got in their with his basketball buddy Duncan, all restraint was thrown aside.

BOTH parties are heavily involved in school privatization thanks to Obama.

anon Don't you dare assume I don't know what I am talking about. Obama is the reason there is a massive privatization movement in this country--he is openly hostile to public education. His policies are even more ruinous to public schools than anything Bush promoted.

He is nothing but a fake Democrat putting forward Republican ideas.

I couldn't care less about other issues where he pretends to be a Democrat--on the issues that truly matter--Social Security, Medicare, public education, economy--he is as far to the right as any president has ever been in American history.

He is a failure.

I certainly well know the problems in public schools are with administrators-- I had two rotten ones right before I was illegally railroaded out of a job.

The governor is responsible in La for the horrible jails (story about jail in New Orleans where inmates have guns, smack etc video shown in Federal Court today)the governor is responsible..he is a radical right governor. Obama says to the states...if you think Charters are the answer, then try it...when it comes out that Charters are not the answer they will dry up...they were a big failure in California. The Gov is responsible..he is the CEO of the State. When Obama sees Charters are a failure he will say we must do something else (like demand respect for teachers maybe) My sister is in Florida where Gov Scott cut school funding a billion dollars but has given hundreds of millions to private firms who were supposed to create jobs...they didn't. Florida is 49th in HS graduations!....another TeaBagger Governor.
