Education, Congress &c.

The premise that we should fire an entire educational staff from top to bottom makes no sense when I'm sure the issue of a lack of parent involvement with regard to failing students is probably non-existent.

If we accept this premise so should we be able to accept the premise that we fire everyone that has failed the American people by running agencies into deficit.

Such as:

Social Security
The Post Office
Amtrack
Medicare
Medicaid
FDMC and FNMA (Two entities that were mandated by Janet Reno by pain of prosecution to force banks to loan to people who otherwise did not qualify by industry standards.)
Car companies
Banks

When the government achieves solvency then it may feel free to address most of the educators in this nation who work tirelessly to overcome the battles our kids suffer today with serious home-life problems.

Then discuss my students at Davie; some raped, molested, abandoned, whose parents may be rightly sentenced to prison; whose parents may (and probably do) abuse drugs and alcohol; parents who never come to a conference or can not speak English although they have lived in this country for many years.

Let's work together to replace this Congress and "The One" and the travesty they provide our educational system with the simple sanity of common sense.
