Re: [LiteracyForAll] The Rush

[MONICALUCIDO@comcast.net]

I guess I should have seen this coming. All of a sudden and "insider" (Susan Neuman) comes out with the true BS that has been handed to us for seven years, and then SHE wants to take part in the "reformation" of the garbage she helped to create!! Many of the people on their signing list have been entwined in the NCLB debacle. People, in general, are not going to know who these folks are! They think the calvary has arrived. WE have been the calvary all along and have been putting in the effort to pressure change of this ludicrous law. Is it just possible that this whole charade was planned from the get go? That NCLB would inevitably fail, leaving room for some of the same folks to keep mustering "we will save the schools" crap? They have stolen the grass-roots movement's weapon, the demolition of NCLB, and hijacked it for their very purposes. Any attempt to fight them will be looked at as VERY unsavory and not in the "interests" of children. How can we expose these harlots for who t
hey are?
