It's Humor, but It's Truth

Teachers' Union Suit Sparks 'No Bureaucrat Left Behind':
    Dubbed 'No Bureaucrat Left Behind' the new plan would address teachers' union complaints about unfunded federal mandates by removing the mandates, the funding and the federal role in public education.

    "When I read the NEA lawsuit," said Mr. Bush, "I realized that as long as we funnel education money through Washington D.C., we provide teachers' unions with an excuse for their poor performance. Blame Bush. Blame Congress. Blame the Department of Education. But if all the money is raised and spent at the local level, then taxpayers can hold the unions accountable."
If only. I suspect Bush would only offer to spend the same money on public or private schools, which wouldn't be the same thing.
