Powerline ran a post yesterday describing Tim Walz as the biggest liar in politics, which would be quite an accomplishment, but which actually understates what a complete prevaricating scumbag he is. This is a spineless, characterless piece of shit. One of his biggest lies is how family-friendly he has made Minnesota, with education being a centerpiece of that claim. During Fat Timmy’s reign of terror, reading and math scores have plummeted in Minnesota and even the Strib this week ran a story stating that barely a fourth of Minnesota students meet dumbed-down science standards.
Powerline has another post discussing student achievement. It is well-recognized now that the southern states have made amazing educational gains, to the point that they lead in reading and math scores, with Mississippi and Louisiana at the top. These studies have also made the biggest gains among minority and low-income students, the groups the Incompetent Blowhard claims to care so much about. Minnesota is sinking to the bottom in a dubious achievement–in demographic adjusted fourth-grade reading scores Minnesota is 39th among the states. Hey, at least for now we are above 11 other states. If we give Fat Timmy another term I am sure he can get us to very last place.
I am really looking forward to the campaign. Whoever the Republican candidate is will have a field day with Timmy’s record. I am sure the teachers and other government unions and out-of-state billionaires will give him lots of money, but Reps will have enough to be sure his lies and the truth of what he has done to the state are plastered all over the media and billboards. The education debacle and the incredible fraud and waste alone are enough to sink him no matter how much money he has to spread his lies. (PL Post)
Minnesota nice Mississippi smarter.
you are unfortunately correct. it really is an amazing story of how the southern states have radically improved their educational achievement in a short time. And none of them allow political indoctrination
I am also looking forward to the campaign. I just hope that the republican nominee will keep the fire lit under the IB.
We don’t need more evidence of his incompetence and corruption. What we need to understand is why so many people vote for him? I have no doubt he will win again unless a real republican challenger appears from somewhere. His competition so far has been as useless as French fries.
I agree, no more Scott Jensen’s or others. Fortunately there are groups outside the Republican party which have more money and are doing a great job of trying to find good candidates. I have no clue how people can keep voting for Dems except “bribery”–they benefit from the fraud and the excessive payments of various types. And of course, the Dems cheat, and cheat a lot.
