No child left behind. So, cheat to make sure you got a job. Great idea, W. and Kennedy.

I actually thought it was a good idea. 2+2 DOES IN FACT =4, I thought holding the kids to learning expectations was a good thing. I guess I didn't account for cheating. Well stupid me. Yes I know this was taxpayer funded but again I thought teaching kids the basics and requiring them to know the basics was a good thing. Damn, hold up two fingers on one hand and two fingers on the other and ask, How many. I know there is more more to it but cmon isn't this the curriculum. not asking students to fly to the moon just be “educated”. I did not realize it would turn into state sponsored cheating.

The same people who said NCLB would lead to cheating seem to be the people responsible for the cheating. That’s what you call one of them there self-fulfilling prophecy thingies.
