Are you claiming that no comparisons are valid? Isn't that the basis
for a program (a Bush program) called No Child Left Behind? Comparisons
are benchmarks. They are totally valid. The issue is making justifiable
comparisons.

Funny how No Child Left Behind winds up in Kennedy's top 10 legislative
accomplishments.

Kennedy worked closely with President George W. Bush to advance the No
Child Left Behind Act, one of Bush's earliest accomplishments and,
critics say, his last meaningful attempt at bipartisanship.


I might even agree with this. It *was* an accomplishment, but it fell
flat for reasons previously stated.


Why does your opinion carry more weight than Time's?


Why do you think it does? Do you believe everything you read in Time?
