Show us whether you believe every child could learn...

Thats right bushshite said that, and he wasn't reading it off a cue card, so that was straight out of his little pea brain. Yep, thats our guy! Thats who a large portion of America calls Mr. President and we call, rightly so, Mr. pResident.

Who will be the first candidate to respond to that stupid bushshite like statement.

1. I have another question

Bush talks about not leaving any child behind then in the same sentence he says that if schools not perform adequately they will be left behind. Why hasn't anyone pointed that non sequitor out?

2. Didn't Al Franken say

people let things like that slide because they realize he's stupid?
The Democratic wing of the Democratic Party would have a coronary if bushshite was held to account for the stupid things he says.

3. That's just not something stupid he said...

that's his whole policy.

[JasonDeter]

4. You ever watch the movie Heartbreak Ridge?

Every time I see bushshite or hear him speak the word, "clusterf**k"
comes to mind. It would be wonderful if the American people told him what that General told that stupid nemesis of Eastwood's character.

5. can you give us some context?

Because to me that looks grammatically correct. What's the problem with it?

6. bush* was giving a speech on his No Child Left Behind, riiiighhht

And that was one of the lines in the speech. It is one of those lines, if you think about it, shows he knows nothing about children or what it takes to teach children.

8. so you're saying that he's pointing out the obvious?

As 'put out' says below, every child can learn. Are you just annoyed that he's accusing someone of claiming that some children can learn nothing? Who was he accusing?

7. Yes, every child can learn.

Sometimes the goal is having them achieve 90% on a standardized test. Sometimes it is having them be able to engage in a game of kickball. Sometimes the goal is their appropriate response, or any response, to another person. Sometimes the goal is when they are able to let their bathroom needs be known. Every child can learn. Meeting NCLB goals is something else again.
