Stupid in America

"In the first place, God made idiots. That was for practice. Then he made School Boards."
-Mark Twain


Listened to John Stossel on the Laura Ingraham Show this morning, plugging his ABC Special, Stupid in America.

In light of the recent NEA financial disclosure, and the idiocy of the Florida Supreme Court ruling on school vouchers, I think it's important to educate Americans on the true nature of our education system, and explore in earnest, in what areas it is, where we are failing our children.

You can see a sneak preview here, of the special.

Also worthy of mention, is the book, Education Myths, by Jay P. Green and Marcus A. Winters.

John is a great guy who puts things in prospective. Good job, Wordsmith!
