Education Secretary Duncan’s new reform proposal: Hurricanes!

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 30, 2010 11:03 AM

File under: Can you imagine if a Republican Education Secretary said this?

Via the Washington Post, Education Secretary Arne Duncan makes a clumsy attempt at pointing out that there was an educational silver lining to the catastrophic hurricane that devastated New Orleans.

Education Secretary Arne Duncan called Hurricane Katrina “the best thing that happened to the education system in New Orleans” because it forced the community to take steps to improve low-performing public schools, according to excerpts from a television interview made public Friday.

Duncan’s interview on “Washington Watch With Roland Martin” was scheduled to air Sunday on TV One.

The excerpts quoted an exchange between Duncan and Martin about the effect of the 2005 hurricane on the city’s schools.

Martin was quoted as saying: “What’s amazing is New Orleans was devastated because of Hurricane Katrina, but because everything was wiped out, in essence, you are building from ground zero to change the dynamics of education in that city.”

Duncan was quoted as replying: “It’s a fascinating one. I spent a lot of time in New Orleans, and this is a tough thing to say, but let me be really honest. I think the best thing that happened to the education system in New Orleans was Hurricane Katrina.

Gee, if only the rotten Chicago schools that Duncan left behind could have such “good” fortune, eh?

    Education Secretary Duncan is most certainly a man of the Left-Progressive from the bone out. Human misery, the death of thousands-ten of thousands, means nothing if it serves the good of the collective. Man is to be perfected through the power of the all knowing state regardless of how many of the unperfect have to be sacrificed.

    But a society that can tolerate the murder of millions of the innocent unborn hardens it’s heart. Education Secretary Duncan is a man of that hardened heart. As with the Baal worshipers of old they have no true compassion.

    INTEGRITY???

    When you realize these Leftist sense of integrity is “what ever advances the collective is the truth” then I would have to say No, not as honest people understand integrity.

    To understand the mind set of these people go to their original source: Plato’s Republic and his Philosopher Kings. Woodrow Wilson, both Roosevelts, Thomas Dewey and all the Progressives thought they were such Enlightened Beings subject to no rules or laws but their own good intentions. That is why they hate our Constitution-it restricts their power.

    INTEGRITY??? I imagine Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot all considered themselves men of integrity as they murdered millions for the advancement of the collective. President Obama’s friend William Ayres proposed such murder in this country and still does.

    Do not go quietly in the night.

    The entire administration if full of loons that could not survive on their own. Their incompetence is shielded by the ignorance of those around them. A socialist ego-system where reality, physics and fact can rarely be found.

    Actually, one did happen once, back in the War of 1812, when the British took D.C.. It drove them out. Don’t know if it could work against liberals though. All I know is that Isabelle didn’t improve the Virginia schools; snowstorm today, won’t either.

    I live in LA and so know what has happened to the schools. First, a large number of underachieveres were shipped off to other districts. Try looking at the preformance scores in Texas. Then a number of the teachers were also lost. And finally, vouchers. The system was allowed to go to a voucher system and suddenly things started to improve.

I grew up in part on Merritt Island the south end of Cape Kennedy. No its not Cape Kennedy now. I understand. The list of unintended spinoff benefits from the race to the moon is probably endless.

    Very true. Right now, it’s technology that is stopping us. Sending a crew, feeding them, and all the other needs is a major problem. BTW, I had some good friends, years ago, JSM, on Merritt Island…Lt. Col. Martin (Tony, Judy, Terry). Still, a moonbase, would have been a stepping-stone there.

    Dear Mr. President

    You should go to Mars immediately, and please take Bozo Biden, Holder, Napolitano, Hillary and if possible the Democrat Congressional Caucus with you. You’ll need a jacket as the average surface temperature there is -63 degrees. Also, the atmosphere is 95% Carbon Dioxide so bring something to breath. With this massive ammount of greenhouse gas, you and the Congress could easily pass a Cap & Tax bill to help the Martians deal with this crisis.

    No, Jangar. This is what really happened. Obama originally, went along with a moonbase; however, he had certain restrictions. All scientists, doctors and such, had to turn over all additional money that they earned, to the cooks, janitors and such, that were also working there, to balance each person’s income. He also insisted on a community organizer too. All healthcare was to be approved by one of his czars. Also, he insisted on a climate change team to assess any change to the moon, because of CO2 exhale from the astronauts. All animals were banned because of methane pollution. NASA couldn’t accept it.

They were out in their station wagon with bald tires. When I asked them why they were out, they responded ‘the snow was so beautiful, we were out video taping it.’

    Arne Duncan – Department of Progressive Education (DOPE)

    One of the theories out in LibLand was that Katrina was Bush’s fault. You know – Bush denies GW – Causes excess heat in tropics – causes Katrina – And in a stroke of evil genius aims it at New Orleans because he doesn’t like dark skinned African Americans with negro dialect. Or something.

    So if we apply Duncan’s logic to this theory, Anthropogenic Global Warming can be a valuable tool to improve public education! D’OH.

    * Never could figure out the inherant contradiction in BDS:

    1. Bush is as dumb as a rock.

    2. Bush is an evil genius who pulled off 9/11 and can manipulate the weather to achieve his evil ends!

    Public school systems have been buried in stupid mandates and poor curricula.

    does this mean that barry hussien was the hurricane for the conservatives in this country? I’ve always believed that bad things have to happen to make people wake the frick up. Now *we* gotta be the hurricane that sweeps out washington.

    Martin was quoted as saying: “… in essence, you are building from ground zero to change the dynamics of education in that city.”

    How do the “dynamics” change when you replace a failed system with itself?

    Sorry, y’all, but he’s completely correct.

    Without the ground-up disaster, the unions, corruptocrats, nepotism, theft, graft and slime would have gone on in N.O. schools as it has since the Earth began to cool.

    It took complete and utter destruction to move the deadwood, parasites and leeches on to greener pastures, and, with some strong prodding by the remaining families, an entirely new system has a chance to grow.

    He really should slapped some of that there ‘nuance’ on his statement tho…

    So is it okay if I wish for a giant tornado to whip through the halls of Congress and 1600 Penn Ave so we can start all over?

    Look for a tornado in early November this year. Then Hurricane Voter in 2012 should finish the job.
    Praying hard!
