(Via Doug Ross Journal) Secretary of Education Arne Duncan issued a veiled threat to the parents and students who choose to opt out of Common Core testing – The Feds “have an obligation to step in.” Federal law, under No Child Left Behind, requires 95 percent of students in a state to take the annual standardized tests in reading

Like lots of things anymore, this is a STATE issue, not a Federal issue. Dissolve the Dept. of Education.

If we can get rid of Eric Holder, this guy should be out the door next. I get the impression that he’s sneaky. So many of Obama’s appointees and Czars give me that same untrustworthy impression. Maybe to be skillfully duplicitous is a high priority job requirement to work for Obama.

When did we get the first CZARS? If the boy was the first one to appoint them that should have been our green light.

He won’t become “president-elect” or president without the support of millions of us. See my tagline.

Has nothing to do with skin color. Common Core is horrible. When our granddaughter starts school, if CC is being taught, I will contribute to her going to private school if necessary!!!!

We have never been given a full accounting of who he has working in what capacities, for what ostensible reasons and who if anyone these appointees must answer to. In other words, a big ‘black’ or unaccounted for budget.

Wait, is Arnie sure it’s racist to opt out and not transphobic?

Racism is so yesterday.

Arne Duncan is racist. Parents and children need to actively work against Common Core and all the crap "tests" associated with it. Refuse to comply. The Feds will threaten to take away money. Great. No money, no control. Time to kick the feds out of the classroom.

That is one complicated bank shot to blame racism for the refusal to take the common core tests.

Off the expressway, over the river, off the billboard, through the window, off the wall, nothing but racism.

And the test isn't the primary problem. The whole curriculum is the problem and the test is just one small part of it.
