Bill Bennett's agenda (besides gambling)

[Pepperbelly]

-snip-

He told me he would not help, because he did not want public schools to obtain new funding, new capability, new tools for success.

7. Conservatives want to starve schools to death, just like the government

and then "remake" them in their own image, with nefarious tools such as vouchers (their version of them, anyway).

That has long been a tenet of their thinking.

3. He is a racist in thought, word and deed

IOW, scum.

4. Check out comment by John in Houston:

I forgot to say that Bennett was speaking to the Texas Legislature in 2003 in support of HB 1445, which would have authorized spending $23 million dollars over the next two years to provide computers, networking, and support for his "virtual charter schools," i.e., for home schooling.
