It looks like Ol’ Joe was “educated to the degree [he was] educable”.

It looks like stand up Chuck was only educable up to preschool.

In that case, most of Obama’s sons would be kicked out after the Second Grade.

I guess what means is an end to affirmative action since that's what it is. Advancing people who lack the educational ability to succeed.

Vice Presidents should be kept silenced to the degree in which they are utterly nonsensical.

You didn't post this to make us look dumb right? Cause educable is a real word! educable [ˈɛdjʊkəbəl], educatable [ˈɛdjʊˌkeɪtəbəl] adj capable of being trained or educated; able to learn

That doesn’t sound much like the utopian spirit of Ted Kennedy/GWB’s “No Chile Leff Behind”!

If Romney had said anything approaching that yesterday... (shudder)

“Children should be educated to the degree they are educable.”
...........................................................
In that case many kids would stop at the 5th grade and save us a ton of money tossed away.

It spounds like a great idea to me.

Hey, I’m an old guy. I’m still learning. So does this mean that I should have bypassed a money-making career, and just been supported in a lifelong time of gittin’ edgicated?

I am sure that there is plenty more that I still don’t know, and I would like a full-time scholarship to go to a country-club college forever, surrounded by comely and willing young women, and with an endless supply of beer.

And some children, like Biden, are a complete waste of education, but we have to give it a try.

Vice President Joe Biden at the NAACP conference says that "Children should be educated to the degree they are educable."

The commie circles are rubbing off on ol Joe. This is not some "stupid" statement by Biden again, this is what those circles believe and Joe is regurgitating what he is around.
Just who exactly decides "to the degree"? Why, Government of course.

From each according to his ability, to each according to his need

He was merely explaining “White Man’s Burden” in a way that those “ignorant savages” could understand.

Vice President Joe Biden at the NAACP conference says that "Children should be educated to the degree they are educable."

A noble idea at first glance.

However for those of us familiar with Uncle Joe we know that what he is suggesting is that all children should get as much education as they desire at the public expense.

Of course as those who have been paying attention already know is that billions of dollars are wasted every year on government subsidized higher education.

Thousands upon thousands of students receiving government subsidized education drop out of college wasting government money and leaving the student most times with useless debt that they will struggle to pay or in many cases default on the loans leaving the tax payer to pick up the tab.

Just what this country needs; more useless debt “INVESTED” in failure.

wonder if the kids has any say in that, or will the government tell them how much they are educatable

John Derbyshire recently got in trouble for writing, among other things, that repeated intelligence testing has shown that about 40% of black American have an iq under 80 - a level below functional literacy which no amount of schooling can overcome.

I guess Biden is just affirming that. And to the cheers of the NAACP.

Makes you wonder.
