Jindal is running from this fast. He trusted the folks who handed it to him as a good idea and now he’s realized the plan stinks.

common core = “no marxist left behind”

Common Core: The absolutely best reason so far to home school your kids or enroll them in a quality Christian school.

White was Jindal’s hand picked education superintendent. Now he’s throwing him under the bus.

I love how the commercial that I see them pimping about Common Core at least 10 times a day that “it’s not political” when it is sooooo agenda driven by the left. I have never heard of this term, our parents never heard of it and their parents haven’t either. Enough of this making up new crap for the good of all people leftist BS. And what’s with the imagery they use in the commercial of 2 large women posing as teachers and a hispanic woman thrown in for diversity... The commercial makes me livid.

“Let’s face it: centralized planning didn’t work in Russia, it’s not working with our health care system and it won’t work in education,” the governor said. “Education is best left to local control.”"

Even if Common Core was the most brilliant educational plan ever conceived, why doesn't Gov. Jindal simply say the following. With the exception of federal military training institutions and the federal entities indicated in the Constitution's Clause 17 of Section 8 of Article I, entities under the exclusive legislative control of Congress, the states have never delegated to the feds, via the Constitution, the specific power to define intrastate school policy?

HOORAY Bobby Jindal.
