Quote From The IDIOT Of The Week.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan said that Hurricane Katrina was “the best thing that happened to the education system in New Orleans” because it gave the city a chance to rebuild and improve its failing public schools.
In an interview to air this weekend on “Washington Watch with Roland Martin” Duncan said “that education system was a disaster. And it took Hurricane Katrina to wake up the community to say that we have to do better. And the progress that it made in four years since the hurricane, is unbelievable.”
The Education Department confirmed the quote to ABC and Duncan released the following statement in response: “As I heard repeatedly during my visits to New Orleans, for whatever reason, it took the devastating tragedy of the hurricane to wake up the community to demand more and expect better for their children.”
Hey, did I tell you that 9-11 was the “best thing” that ever happened to NYC?
It’s given them a chance to build some really nice, modern structures that give the city a whole new look.
Is this Administration full of the World’s Biggest Jackass’s Or What?
