Reply #7: Pawlenty's wonderful new education commissioner, [View All]

[MnFats]

cherie peterson yecki (some now pronounce it "Yucky," was heavily lobbied by the gov to come to minnesota. she has herself never actually taught in a public school classroom setting, and if I recall correctly, has never actually worked in ANY public school.

When Pawlenty was trying to get her to come here, she had another job offer she was considering (this is true): Jeb Bush wanted her to come and run Florida's schools.

This tells you something, no?

Minnesota has always had great public schools. I think the vast right-wing conspiracy is trying to destroy public education so they can indoctrinate young people in their own camps. Oh, that way they don't have to worry about teaching the developmentally disabled, those with emotional problems etc....
