Quote of the Day

[Governor Christie’s] irrational, ideological hatred of NJEA — which led him to throw his own Commissioner of Education under the school bus for cooperating, rather than conflicting, with NJEA — has led to utter failure, and the loss of desperately needed funds for our public schools. Maybe this costly lesson will convince Gov. Christie to realize that collaboration is preferable to confrontation when it comes to building consensus around sound public policy.

  • Nothing irrational about it, Barb.

    Christie intends to run for President as "the man who broke the NJEA."

    As for the schools, who cares?
