Maybe you missed it; but the problem testing revealed in Arkansas is

That's has nothing to do with the teachers, just the management.

Real teachers were ****ed.

Good teachers quit in favour of higher paying jobs elsewhere.

That isnt what actually happened after Gov Clinton signed the teacher
testing bill. Your analysis fails to recognize how many teachers liked
living and working and raising their kids in small towns that dont have
strangers with candy or drug dealers on the corners.

Yes that is very true.

And should these Big City 'Baddies' show up in
these rural communities they often seem to leave
rather quickly.
When a town is only 10,000, the 1% who are criminals are only 100 faces,
which the cops can look at, and remember. Thugs know that, so they move
to cities where their identity wont be known. Conversely, they dont come
to small towns because everyone there knows they do not belong there,
and thus keep eyes on them.

Have you EVER admitted anything Clinton did that was positive?

Yes Bill is now a former us prez-a-duntz )
Right. Which reveals you are not an unbiased source of information, but
will reliably spin it in whatever way comports with your sensibilities.
You will have friends who like what you have to say, but you wont
convince anyone else that your point of view is rational.
