Education Reform Movement Learns Lesson From Old Standards

Uh, Governor Bredesen, about your closing quote:

"The scores are gonna look like they're falling, and they're not..."

Well, uh...

You're wrong.

When whoever gives a test and there is a cutoff score, those who fall below the line have, by definition, failed.

It's what Tennessee and all those other states signed on for to receive your 30 pieces of silver from the Obama administration. Like Judas, you're damned for all time...

...or at least until the next failed reform effort.

Still, not to fear. Unlike Judas, you've got a scapegoat...
