So Friday night I was watching on public television the debate between the two candidates for Superintendent of Public Instruction in Wisconsin (insert pathetic wretch comment here). One of the candidates is a right-wing nut, one of those people who wants to run some “liberal” institution so she can help shut it down. They were talking about her support of relaxing standards so anyone can teach (makes it less expensive that way).

Linda Cross: Under the current rules, Einstein would not be able to teach science. I think he would be an excellent teacher for our children….{belated realization}……..if he were alive today.
