It's the teachers that's wrong with America? Leftist teachers? Not corruption because of lax regulation in mining (the WORST spill in HUMAN history), not because of greedy tycoons that got bailouts (the second worst economic downturn in US history), not because of unjustified wars (cost the nation tons of money and 11 years on, nothing fully resolved), but simply because of teachers? Wow...
I agree that Obama's Crony Capitalism and War Mongering are disgusting too, but that doesn't change the fact that government run schools are a disaster.
I love how most Republicans have never been teachers before, yet they seem to know every aspect of the job. I'm willing to bet most of the armchair public school administrators around here wouldn't last a week teaching at a public school.
Most Democrats also have never been teachers before and also pontificate.......
Just for the record, there are three groups involved in the education of a child: The Child, The teacher, and The Parent. If One of these is not invested, then the whole thing fails.
So much disdain for teachers, despite right wingers claim that they are not anti teacher
Private and parochial and home school teachers seem to get the job done. And for far less pay.
A good solution would be to give vouchers and those parents who want an education for their kids could get them one, those who want to see 15% of their 4th graders reading could stick with the public school.

You support big government nanny state giving out checks to people to spend at private schools, I don't. Want to send your kid to a private school, pay for it yourself, I do. We get no handouts in my family.

this is what most people do not understand...it is like a three legged stool, which by the way if you know any geometry at all, is the most stable structure there is. If one leg is broken it becomes the LEAST stable structure there is.
