RICHMOND, Jan. 23 -- The Republican-controlled Virginia House of Delegates sharply criticized President Bush's signature education program Friday, calling the No Child Left Behind Act an unfunded mandate that threatens to undermine the state's own efforts to improve students' performance.

From the same story, a Republican just ended his career:

No Republicans voted against the resolution, a fact that House Education Committee Chairman James H. Dillard II (R-Fairfax) said is proof that "the damn law is ludicrous."

I just can't believe these kooky Republicans saying such things right after Bush made such a deal about this act in his speech. Maybe Dillard went to Yale or he is just a hillbilly from western Virginia.

PSG, come on brother. Where you at?
