Last week, Jeb Bush was in New Hampshire, pressing on with his sordid campaign to delude conservatives into swallowing Common Core and massive, unfettered immigration policies. He has fashioned himself a champion of the American worker, even as he pompously pushes Gang of Eight amnesty as the adult plan in the room. And he has fashioned himself a champion of school choice, even as he zealously crusades for failed Fed Ed rackets and data-mining schemes masquerading as higher standards.
The condescending Bush attitude is familiar to grass-roots activists and parents in Florida and across the country who have fought Club Bush and Common Core, Inc.
Ive reported extensively on Club Bush and the D.C. corporate and Big Government lobbyists who comprise the arrogant Common Core overlords.
In particular, Id like to refresh your memories about the cozy relationship between Club Bush and Common Core testing/tech conglomerate Pearson. As I reported in September 2013:

She could have signed off right here : )
Malkin is strongly against illegal immigration, and Fox is for it. This alone makes her incompatible with Fox. Also, Malkin is anything but a potted plant : )

She’s a twitter regular these days.
Hundreds of students from around New Mexico walked out of class Monday morning to protest the states new standardized test, while thousands more began taking the controversial exam.In Albuquerque, between 900 and 1,000 students held protests at seven Albuquerque Public Schools high schools and at one local charter school, according to APS spokeswoman Monica Armenta. There are about 66,000 students across the district who are scheduled to take the test.
About 100 students protested briefly in Rio Rancho, while students also held protests in Las Cruces, Moriarty and Santa Fe.
The size of the protests varied widely in Albuquerque. Some schools such as Albuquerque and Rio Grande high schools had hundreds of student protesters, while protests at La Cueva and Sandia were much smaller.
New Mexico adopted the PARCC exam which is more rigorous than its predecessor, the Standards Based Assessment because it aligns with the Common Core State Standards, which New Mexico put in place last year. Students in grades 3-11 take the exam.
The federal government requires states to give a statewide standardized test. New Mexico is among a group of states that have chosen to use the PARCC exam, a computerized test.
State Education Secretary Hanna Skandera said Monday that she was disappointed some students chose to walk out on the test, but she said there were thousands more who began the PARCC exam Monday.
