OBAMA & DUNCAN...THE DEFIANT ONES

No, not a remake of the 1958 movie starring Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis...

...instead, a sequel to the six years of damage inflicted upon public education by the determined Democratic duo.

Obama leading Duncan (Duncan leading Obama?) through the morass...


From Education Week

Administration Doubling Down on K-12 Priorities, Ed. Sec. Arne Duncan Declares


CAT Tracks Editor's Note:

Damned and determined...

...doubling down on their "Republican" education agenda.

And, the irony of it all...

...the real Republicans are the opposition.

And the cherry on top of the irony...

...is Duncan's use (plagiarizing?) of the "soft bigotry" wording of George W. Bush.

I shall refrain from a full-blown rant...

...as the barbs bubbling in my brain would result in an "X-Rating".


Okay, I can't resist a catty footnote...

...prompted by the movie poster.

Curtis makes a good Duncan...

...the suitably clueless, almost comatose expression on his face.

Poitier, on the other hand, way too strong...

...totally unlike weak, passive, "Professor" Obama...

...except, of course, when it comes to trashing teachers and privatizing "public" education.

Sigh...
