And out of it comes something stupid.
Discussing controversial classroom subjects such as evolution and global warming, Santorum said he has suggested that “science should get out of politics”
Yes, because we all know those pesky scientests keep trying to inject their "facts" into political debates, and politicians never, ever, try to suppress research results.
And then there was this:
“President Obama doesn’t know the name of your child. How dare he suggest what is best for them,” Santorum told an audience at the University of Northern Iowa.
Santorum voted for "No Child Left Behind," which removed significant amounts of control from local school boards. President Obama and Senate Democrats favor returning that power to the local level.
Like Mr. Obama’s waiver proposal, the Harkin bill would return to states some powers taken over by Washington under the Bush-era law, including the leeway to devise their own systems for holding schools accountable for student progress.
“We are moving into a partnership mode with states, rather than telling states you’ve got to do this and this and this,”
Little Ricky says he now regrets his vote.
