Fiorina says we must ‘fully fund’ NCLB, forgets McCain voted against full funding.
Fiorina says we must ‘fully fund’ NCLB, forgets McCain voted against full funding.
On NBC’s Meet the Press yesterday, spokeswoman for Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) Carly Fiorina said McCain would continue to support the “imperfect” legislation of No Child Left Behind, though she added, “We need to learn the lessons, fix the problems, fully fund it.” However, McCain has repeatedly voted against fully funding the law, according to the National Education Association:
Since 2003, McCain voted repeatedly against fully funding No Child Left Behind, resulting in an unfunded mandate that has continued to further tap local communities and states during an economic downturn.
In June, McCain adviser Douglas Holtz-Eakin declared McCain was “fully supportive of the notion that we ought to fully fund” NCLB. However, on the same day, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote that another adviser, Lisa Graham Keegan, “said McCain believes NCLB is adequately funded.”

This website all it does is complain. It offers nothing but attacks. It is a hate site.

July 14th, 2008 at 10:59 pmThey supported Iran condemning McCain’s statement. They never condemn Iran calling for American deaths.

Arn Gunnutes,

MURDERER Bush is a little WAR criminal COXUCKER punk TRAITOR to the USA with the BLOOD of 4100 US soldiers and 1 Million Iraqis.
McSenile is a TRAITOR to the USA who cares about his ELITE buddies and the Military Industrial Complex.
Seems like “people” like YOU are always calling for the deaths of Iranians, RIGHT?
If so, YOU deserve to get it in return.
Do YOU condemn those that call for Iranian DEATHS?
If not, you believe that THEY should DIE, be NUKED, etc?
I guess you’re not a follower of Jesus Christ, or a “christain” like MURDERER Bush the COXUCKER punk TRAITOR to the USA.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:05 pmFiorina isn’t very good at this, is she?
July 14th, 2008 at 11:12 pmI would think the Pee Brigade would have a bit more imagination, but noooooo….**snore**
Flag the piss-soaked trolls.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:14 pmZooey, Fiorina is only good at promoting herself over anyone or anything. Trust me on that one.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:17 pmOrdinarily I’d wonder if Fiorina actually knew about any of the positions of person she’s stumping for but then again, McCain doesn’t either.

I beginning to think that McCain;s strategy is to say such monumentally stupid, insane and contradictory things that everyone will just give up on politics and voting altogether.
McCAIN WINS BY DEFAULT!!
July 14th, 2008 at 11:40 pmRodan was amongst the lamest of the godzilla spin offs. Anyway NCLB is a farce and will continue to be so. Well considered ed reform it is not nor will it ever be

Please wake me when Fiorina DOESN’T McControdict the fine(?) Senator.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:08 amPerhaps McCain and Fiorina are trying to prove they can be just as incompetent as Bush and his cabinet.
That can only gain the votes from those conservatives who vote for the guy they’d love to have a beer with.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:29 amEither McCain’s spokes people miss his daily briefings or McCain is forgetting to give daily briefings to the people that are speaking for him. Fiorina sounds more like an Obama supporter than a McCain supporter.
July 15th, 2008 at 7:42 amOk trolls lets pretend we wipe Iran off the map. Lets pretend we glass the Middle East, and somehow miraculously preserve Israel. Then you exterminate all other “undesirables” (liberals, gays, brown people, etc.)
What or who next would you go after? Would you ever run out of “enemies” to wish death upon?
My guess is you would become paranoid and fearful of each other and exterminate yourselves. Which would prove the whole thing is about self-loathing.
