          "The bill repeals a specified rule that established certain nutrition standards for the national school lunch and breakfast programs. (In general, the rule requires schools to increase the availability of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat or fat free milk in school meals; reduce the levels of sodium, saturated fat, and trans fat in school meals; and meet children's nutritional needs within their caloric requirements.)"

          So not only will our kids be dumber, they will fatter and unhealthier too. But hey that will only disproportionately attack the broker school districts...cant see why that would be a problem. Those durn kids dont deserve to eat healthy anyways. They should tighten up their bootstraps and get a job or something!

          This bill, and this idea, is so bad it is almost as horrible as electing the Czar Urea.

          Kepler Lesson C is coming...there is no way this doesnt pass unless every Congressmen holds a townhall and gets destroyed.

            I have mixed emotions on the value of something like the Department of Education.

            Education has always been one of those weird areas of the U.S. where at least in my area has been funded at a very local level, but subject to rules and requirements that come from the State or Federal government. That creates hard feelings when the Feds come in and tell you how to run a school that you fund, not them.

            It also creates an opportunity for the feds to come up with ideas like No Child Left Behind. The road to he!! is paved with good intentions.

            The key will be to make sure that they identify the few important things the Department does handle, and make sure that gets reassigned to someone who will still see that it gets done.
            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

              Well, the one thing we know for sure is there is a systemic dismantling of public education going on. We no longer fix, or take to account public education. Instead we seek to destroy it.

              I hope my kids kids can go to private school.

                    We're going to get a lesson, but I'm not sure what that lesson is going to be.

                    Lesson A: Now that the Republicans can actually pass all the lunatic garbage they have proposed for decades, they will happily do so, and the ensuing social and economic tsunamai will make them the out party for the next 40 years, just like after they had total control in the 1920s.

                    Lesson B: Now that the Republicans can actually pass all the lunatic garbage they have proposed for decades, they will recognize doing so is suicide, so they will hem and haw and claim they can't, and the orcs will finally recognize they are a fraudulent party and split off to form The Know Nothing Numb Nut Party, led by true believers like Ted Cruz, which will split the right down the middle and potentially actually end the Republican party, to be replaced by a whole new American party system.

                    Lesson C: They'll do it, it will be a disaster, and nothing will change because their voters are simply too isolated from fact. Even when the consequences come to their own door, they will always find a way to blame Blacks, Libruls, and Feminazis. And so this torture will go on for decades.

                    Lesson D: They'll do it, they were right, and the new American Millennium will be upon us, just as Jesus rides down to the rebuilt Temple on a unicorn that farts Iraqi WMD.

                      Mr. Carter created the Dept. of Education (doors opened circa 1980*).

                      How'd we do things before the Dept of Education?


                      *Yup, "War" and Treasury still call Education "noob" and give it noogies and wedgies and swirlies.
