De Blasio hired DFER favorite/hedge fundie lawyer Reshma Saujani as deputy public advocate. Democratic campaigns and offices are rife with these ed deform specialists. It's a disease I'm not sure can be eradicated. Not because these people actually believe the stuff they flack for, but because the money is there for people who flack for corporate reform. reality-based educatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01712885202661371924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-19411306140612224592013-07-31T12:59:54.174-04:002013-07-31T12:59:54.174-04:00It's good to see Barbara Morgan get her 15 min...It's good to see Barbara Morgan get her 15 minutes of fame around this.

Look at the society , culture, mores projected through media and entertainment , young people's behavior, etc., etc.<br /><br />Our common, popular society is in the toilet. Bankrupt, vacant, and vile. Public school teachers above all know this to be true.

She did go on to work for Cerf in New Jersey. So what is Weiner doing with a Klein reformer on his staff?? That's what made my head-no pun intended-spin. I knew deep down he was another Emmanuel in the making. He would continue to support RTTT and find a way to punish teachers for failing to endorse him the first time. Hey, I liked him the first time as well. But then again I liked John Edwards. So I am hoping that deBlasio doesn't have Rhee waiting in the wings the way Obama had Duncan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-7622547594681601732013-07-31T10:21:04.762-04:002013-07-31T10:21:04.762-04:00No matter cynical one might about these people, th...No matter cynical one might about these people, they inevitably reveal themselves to be more profane, nasty and vicious than ordinary people can imagine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
