Some Ugly Details from the Daley/Duncan/Obama Connection
It is not my custom to spent time on an article from American Thinker, a conservative publication whose political editor brags about appearances on the Dennis Miller show, but Unsolved Mystery: D.C. Public Schools Cheating Scandal by M. Catharine Evans and Ann Kane is informative and important. I’m interested not so much in the D. C. cheating scandal as I am in the exposure of “Chicago connections”—-the connections and what they mean for the rest of us. I think their artic lewas mislabeled. This is not a story about the D. C. cheating scandal. It is a story of the corporate connections that grease one person’s career path. And the real story is missing here. The real story is the Chicago teachers whose careers were ruined and the neighborhoods that lost their community schools so the mayor could have some areas of gentrification. The real story is who’s next for assault by Wireless Generation.
