LOL Years ago I kinda liked George Will. He’s gone soft in the head these past few years.

He's right about NCLB though. GWB has created the weapon the left will now use to destroy us. Conservatives never had any prospect of using the educational system to indoctrinate youth into partisan ideologies. The left does though and they are good at it. What GWB has done is to eliminate the last vestige of independence from local school districts. Now any district that does not teach genetic homosexuality, global warming, universal health care, and other left wing agenda items will be denied federal funds. It's coming.

Agreed. Altho I’d argue that curriculum is driven by textbooks, and the textbook is driven by NY, California and Texas.

Therefore, kids across the country are getting the same education as the Kalifornia nutters just because we use the same textbooks.

Look at Chicago math as one example. Kids across the country are failing to larn math because one goofy state University is pushing a crap math curriculum loved by California and NY.
