Obama Education Sec. Invites DOE Employees to Sharpton Rally
→ Bizblogger | 1 Sep 2010 | 10:07 am MDT
Just catching up on some of the news over the past week. Obama's Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, invited all DOE employees to Al Sharpton's rally last week. Incidentally, the Beck-Palin rally, held on the same day, had 100 times the number of people.As David Boaz explained in the Examiner, it was a ”highly inappropriate” thing to do, pushing people who are supposed to serve all Americans to support one side of a “political debate.” But that’s just the most obvious problem with Duncan’s weekend doings.
Perhaps just as troubling as his rally-prodding is that Duncan declared education “the civil rights issue of our generation” at Sharpton’s event. This only about a year after helping to kill an education program widely supported by many of the people he and Sharpton insist they want to empower. I’m talking, of course, about Washington, DC’s, Opportunity Scholarship Program, a voucher program that was proven effective. But the heck with success — Duncan and President Obama let the union-hated program die.
