Congress, Obama Cut $38 Billion From Budget, But Race to the Top 2.0 Gets Funded

Cuts here.

Race to the Top 2.0 continuation here.

So no money for highway and high-speed rail projects, health-care and job training initiatives, and agricultural programs, but plenty of money for standardized tests and computer programs to track those tests.

Change we can believe in.

    Unfortunately President Accountability is bragging about making the biggest cuts to gov't ever while retaining his signature education privatization plan.

    Really, really bad news. Any education monies should have gone into just keeping schools running.

    Well of course, I'm sure the Republicans were happy to give him that one.

    There are outright crazies like the teabaggers. And then there is Obama embracing all kinds of idiocies & stupidities , all with a "intelligent" mask.
