Well! Just in time for the election, folks, a new advocacy group has been formed to address what they call “the most pressing civil rights issue in America today.” Among the Education Equality Project\u2019s founding members: the Reverend Sharpton and the heads of New York City\u2019s and Washington DC\u2019s public skrool<\/emphasize> systems.<\/p>\n

Now, oddly enough, the group is echoing points thatI have been raising for years. They\u2019re demanding a nationwide shakeup of the public skrools<\/emphasize>. They cite the miserable track record educating black and Hispanic kids, and they pin the blame on special interest groups like teachers unionsand on parental indifference.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re calling for more accountability from teachers, greater responsibility from parents, and more incentives to reward achievement. I mean, this isa perfect example of the Limbaugh Echo Syndrome!Something else caught my attention, too: Michelle Rhee, thehead of Washington DC\u2019s skrools<\/emphasize>, criticized her fellow Democrats for attacking the No Child Left Behind Act — that\u2019sPresident Bush\u2019s policy to ensure greater accountability.<\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s way too early to see if the Education Equality Project will have any impact, or just fade into the background like a zillion other advocacy groups. But,for a change,we\u2019ve got liberals correctly identifying major problems in education: Democrat-run teachers\u2019 unions and indifferent parents.<\/p>\n

My guess is this group will be royally ignored by their own Democrat party– including the messiah, Barack Obama. Because when it comes to choosing between the needs of minority kids and the teachers\u2019 unions…Ha, ha! With liberals, the kids are going to come in dead last<\/emphasize> –every time! <\/p>\n
