Obama
wants longer school years
What's wrong with him? He should be
talking JOBS!
Barely into the new school year,
Obama issued a tough-love message to students and teachers on Monday:
Their year in the classroom should be longer, and poorly performing
teachers should get out.
American students are falling behind their foreign counterparts,
especially in math and science, and that's
got to change, Obama said. Seeking to revive a sense of urgency that
education reform may have lost amid
the recession's focus on the economy, Obama declared that the future of
the country is at stake.
"Whether jobs are created here, high-end jobs that support families and
support the future of the American people,
is going to depend on whether or not we can do something about these
schools," the president said on the "Today" show.
Is he TRYING to lose 100 seats in
the House?
Yes, our school system is fucked but NOBODY CARES right now.
To this day, Obama has no idea that he and his party are in severe and
massive trouble.
If he did, wouldn't he be talking jobs,
jobs, jobs?
