The latest news on No Child Left Behind

The Great Emancipator: Obama Frees 10 States from No Child Left Behind
RUSH: I'll tell you, you talk about getting tricked? Getting tricked is believing that Obama's gonna bring us all together! So Obama's on TV bragging about his No Child Left Behind waivers, now. Oh, yeah. A bunch of states. And there was a big Chyron graphic up on MSNBC: "Obama Frees 10 States from No Child Left Behind Rules!" There he is, the Great Emancipator! It's an Election Year, and so basically people will be exempted from every liberal program for a while so that the pain and suffering inherent in them will not be felt and have a deleterious effect on Obama's reelection.
