And you're blaming the break down of our entire educational system on the Democrats??? Wow! What was the previous Republican's doing about it??? Remember Bush's "No Child Left Behind"??? Ya, that really fizzled! They're still looking for that kid on a milk carton somewhere!

Get real.
Perhaps if you got off the floor and stopped laughing (and mocking) you would have some time to get some real facts - then you too may be able to become informed. Yes, the data does indeed show Republicans to be better informed than Democrats. And, yes the Republican administration was not content with the status quo as the Dems/teachers union was and actually did do something about it and actually did achieve positive results. But, just to let you know that this is not just a "slam the Dems" post, Arne Duncan has made some promising comments concerning education and he may actually take on some of the golden calves of the teachers' union. Good for him if he succeeds.
