sisyphusshrugged | education in Florida - a Bush family project with predictable results

Let's see: Jeb is the governor, Neil is selling software to schools and Our Fearless Leader is so concerned that he couldn't face an attack on our nation while there were elementary school students to encourage.

So, how's it going?

The Florida Department of Education has mismanaged federal grants for charter schools, including how it awarded money and let local districts run the program, a federal education official said.

Florida awarded grant money to a few ineligible charter schools and improperly withheld it from others, said Dean Kern, director of the U.S. Department of Education's Charter School Program.

Some of the problems were even more basic, Kern said in an e-mail to the state. A list of charter-school contacts provided by the state had out-of-date telephone numbers for disconnected lines.

You can just imagine how swimmingly Our Fearless Leader's unfunded reforms are going in states he doesn't need to keep his brothers from looking for work.

No little brother left behind. Just children.
