Political Quotes

“But you know, that is the other myth that we are fighting here, that Washington bureaucrats, that a Washington bureaucracy cares more about the education of our kids than what parents in local communities do. This myth is also hurting America. It creates the illusion that the magical Washington education bureaucrat can substitute, think about it, that the people in Washington can substitute for parents and local teachers. The myth again creates the illusion that spending equals results. The more dollars you spend, the better results you are going to have. And the myth leads to policy designed for the lowest common denominator.”
