On 60 Minutes (CBS) right now: Texas Miracle/NCLB = Fraud!

[iconoclastic cat]

It's 7pm here; turn it on, baby!

1. About time. I wonder where all the journalists have gone. Should have

been exposed a long time ago.

[SharonAnn]

2. It was exposed, and I think it was by 60 minutes, about a year ago.

I think this is a rerun of the original Sunday night 60 minutes show.

There were publication articles in some major newspapers about some of the details even before the original 60 minutes article.

3. Yes I saw it then too. But good for CBS

for keeping this in the news.

[kikiek]

10. Yeah I saw it then too. But this should be major news. It seems

impossible to expose this administration for what they are. Everything is dropped way too quickly. Maybe it was after 9/11 that things changed so much. I can't seem to pinpoint it.

5. That lying s***bag, Rod Paige.

He and dumbya lied.

Only God knows how many kids educations, and lives, they wrecked.

Education President, my ass.

He and Paige should rot in hell for this.

Hey Laura... you got some 'splainin to do about your s***bag husband.

[kikiek]

11. It has to be the ultimate sin. Stomping all over people everywhere you

go to further yourself. His whole religious claim is so phony. This is proven by his actions.

7. This sham................

was actually exposed before the election in 2000. Of course then it was just a few crackpots with scores to settle that were reporting the injustice of Bush's education programs in Texas. :eyes:

The media were all over this, remember?
Neither do I.
They were too busy reporting about Al Gore inventing the internet.

8. more fraud and corruption that took place under shrubya....disgusting

the more you learn about this coward...the more you are astounded he is our "selected" leader

[iconoclastic cat]

9. The best quote: "It's the KIDS, STUPID!"

Goddamn right.

[kikiek]

12. That was good. Loved it.

13. This issue (Sept) of Teacher Mag

has a really great article about the Sharpstown ISD principal who blew the whistle. This guy is a true American hero, unlike Paige who is a self-aggrandizing rectal orifice.
It's not up on the web yet, but it will be at www.teachermagazine.org.
