Glenn Beck Award*
GOP Candidate Rick Santorum, according to today’s New York Times, questions the “legitimacy of state-run public education systems:”
“Yes the government can help. But the idea that the federal government should be running schools, frankly much less that the state government should be running schools, is anachronistic. It goes back to the time of industrialization of America when people came off the farms where they did home-school or have the little neighborhood school, and into these big factories, so we built equal factories called public schools. And while those factories as we all know in Ohio and Pennsylvania have fundamentally changed, the factory school has not.”
Mr. Santorum also shared his belief that Pres. Obama’s agenda is informed by ”some phony ideal, some phony theology. Oh, not a theology based on the Bible, a different theology,” he said. “But no less a theology.”
*Award from NJ Left Behind in honor of Mr. Glenn Beck, formerly of Fox News, whom Jon Stewart describes as “a guy who says what people who aren’t thinking are thinking.”
