Immigrants should be proficient in English, and I think most of them want to be - until they hit the public schools, which tell them this isn't important.

I don't know anything about Laboy's performance in his job. Maybe he's great, or maybe he's the typical loser Democratic party hack who was essentially appointed by the teachers' union.

In any case, while he's personally responsible for his failures, I'd say that the whole atttiude comes from the idiocies of the teachers' unions and, in fact, the entire educational establishment, which decided in the early 1970s that learning had nothing to do with education.

The important thing was indoctrination into left-wing social beliefs. Along with things such as learning how to put condoms on cucumbers.

I would be willing to wager that most immigrants have more common sense than those who advocate for them.

As for you comments on this guy, and his situation, I am in agreement with you.
