The Department of Educations costs a bajillion dollars to run and doesn’t educate a single child.

Did you hear about this?

Sharpton, Gingrich and Duncan Announce Education Tour

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and civil rights leader Al Sharpton will join Education Secretary Arne Duncan on a tour of four cities to highlight the Obama administration’s efforts to reform public education, spur innovation and discuss challenges facing America’s school systems.

I mentioned this before, but the three of them were on Meet the Press talking about this new program where schools compete for funds. There’s actually better articles than this about it. I haven’t figured out if they’re talking only about charter schools or public schools also. I just thought the lineup was quite interesting. Strange bedfellows indeed.
