The Education President Stikes Again

Bush has actively encouraged much more federal involvement in American schooling. One of his big campaign promises in his first term was to fix the swollen, festering system that masquerades as public education. His No Child Left Behind (NCLB) program, which is essentially reconstituted "Goals 2000" and "School-to-Work," is the centerpiece of this effort. This UNESCO-inspired program, so evil under Bill Clinton but strangely good under George Bush, is now hard at work fixing education, as promised. Posted by Editor at November 30, 2004 06:44 AM
