Congressman Buck McKeon was for the No Child Left Behind Act before he was against it.
He voted for Bush's initiative in 2001, but this week he voted against fully funding it. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 includes $26 billion for the No Child Left Behind Act and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
Perhaps it's not surprising, given Buck McKeon's anti-education voting record. After all, the National Education Associates gave Buck McKeon a truly dismal %25 rating on education issues.
Buck McKeon wants to eat his cake and have it too. He wants to pretend he supports education, while he tries to obstruct every attempt by Democrats to educate kids, repair schools, and help students earn a college degree.
