And Now Folks, For the Entertainment Portion of Our Program - PEP Video: GEM Real Reformers Sing and MCA Steppers

Some lyrics:
They don’t know how to teach history,
they don’t know how to teach biology,
They don’t know much about science books,
they don’t know much about the cuts we took,
but they do know how to close down schools,
we’re fighting back you know that we’re not fools,
What wonderful schools they could be.
They know a lot about charter schools,
and that they think that merit pay is cool,
..Parents, teachers, students know there’s more
They know there’s more than just test scores
What wonderful schools these could be.

See Cathie Black buckle when faced with jeers - look how nasty and annoyed she is. How much more abuse can she stand?

  1. Well, didn't Harry Truman say: "If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen?"

    Didn't Cathie Black read the e mails on her Blackberry from the Mayor, whose mantra is being accountable to the PUBLIC?

    Poor Ms. Black- rising to her level of incompetence in the PUBLIC arena, so early in the game... wonder if HEARST kept her job open?
