Foot in Mouth Disorder?

Filed under: Politics — Jaws @ 3:16 pm

Well, it looks like someone else may have caught the foot-in mouth disorder that Howard Dean had.

Apparently, in the context of a bad/poor joke, Secretary of Education Rod Page called the NEA a “terrorist organization” . He’s gonna put his foot in his mouth…and I’d assume that he may be forced to resign.

Granted, the Educrats can (and do) cause a lot of problems, but he could’ve chosen his words better.

And speaking of Howard Dean, it looks like he’s in the red. Where did the millions he raised go?

Update: Secretary Paige has apologized, saying:

“It was an inappropriate choice of words to describe the obstructionist scare tactics the NEA’s Washington lobbyists have employed against No Child Left Behind’s historic education reforms…the NEA’s high-priced Washington lobbyists have made no secret that they will fight against bringing real, rock-solid improvements in the way we educate all our children regardless of skin color, accent or where they live.
