I don’t mind people complaining about Medicare part D— though it did cost less than projected..
Complaining about NCLB is foolish for several reasons:
1. Democrats still say NCLB is underfunded.
2. The bill gives local control to education in a strong and meaningful way. That is the essential conservative principal necessary for some day undoing the massive damage being done to our society by public education (FYI my three children are in public schools).
3. The nationalized standards for education regarding reading and math which compel more education to actually take place in schools.
So, yes NCLB was necessary and has been a tremendous help to me as a conservative parent dealing with my public schools.
They said Hitler was unstoppable too. I say keep fighting. He’s making the same mistakes Hitler did too - opening up too many battle fronts too quickly.
