Betsy DeVos mocked for messy '60 Minutes' interview

Excellent where? Back you statement Sir, dont comment and run off lol

SSgt Ray Stone - She supports two things I support ... choice ... and getting the federal government out of the business of dictating to local schools. IMV, and that of a goodly number of others, since Jimmy Carter signed the Department of Education into law, it has done nothing but drag our public schools into mediocrity. She's attempting to reverse that ... and IMV, that makes her an excellent choice to head the Department.

LTC (Join to see) - okayyy, but ummm are you aware of the budget she proposed. Which will..... never mind link below, And you dont find it troubling that she cant answer basic questions regarding her department, that 60 min interview isnt the first where she made a fool out of herself

SSgt Ray Stone - I'm pleased with the direction the budget her department has proposed is taking. How it emerges from the federal budget process may well be something else again. Constitutionally, education is the purview of state and local governments. While I don't take great issue with the federal government helping a bit to level the playing field (as long as it is leveled to the high end), has become a great example of 'allowing the camel's nose under the tent.' Are you aware that the federal government's contribution to fulfilling a state and local responsibility for K-12 education has risen from about 5.7 percent in 1990-91 to about 8.3 percent in 2005 and is about 10 percent now? If that increase in spending had resulted in something close to an equivalent increase in academic performance, it would be a bit more palatable. While we are a world leader in education spending, we are not a world leader in academic performance. Advanced nations that spend far less per capita achieve far better results.

How could you not like Stormy?

PO2 Peter Klein - What does she have to do with this?

Cpl Tom Surdi - Sorry, I thought I was replying to the post above yours.

SSgt Ray Stone
Makes sense since I am sure she has to rehearse for her work.
