A sad day for children in North Carolina

After a brief hiatus, I'm back...

The image “http://tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:ts5PgyxZUDqELM:http://www.dlc.org/upload_graphics/NDOTW-Bev-Perdue.1.26.07.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. ...And not a moment too soon, as it is very hard to analyze what Gov. Perdue is doing. In one breath, she unveils all of these grandiose plans for public education, while simultaneously raiding the "Lootery" fund to plug the shortfall.

While the plans are being announced, teachers are being laid off statewide. Class sizes expanded, supply budgets sliced...and now yesterday's horrifying news that teachers statewide will be required to take unpaid time off.

Clearly, she is not one to be trusted.

E.C. :)
