[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]She's the Sarah Palin of school reform.[/quote]

i love this! totally true! she was all style, no substance. tolerated a culture of cheating to goose scores. she has no resume to speak of, yet people act like she is the 2d coming. she QUIT before grey fired her (rather than compromise any of her dogmatic beliefs) then boo-hooed about how much she loved DC. she's a phoney. glad i missed that episode.[/quote]

I love the reference to Grey here; is that really the kind of governance you want for the school system or the city.... Corrupt AND incompetent? Look, Rhee was an ambitious young woman who had some balls and imploded some of the complacency about a broken school system. She didn't fix that system, and I suspect she'll never live up to her hype, but I'd rather have a hustler who is trying to do something creative than the idiocy that ruled before her, or the world of shakedowns and profiteering that Grey represents. Give credit to Ryee for shaking things up, give more credit to KYa for putting things on a more sustainable track, and hope DC can attract smart young people who will try to make this city great for all its residents, ESP it's kids.[/quote]
