Obama trashes GOP education reform bill

The Washington Times reports:

President Obama on Saturday came out swinging against Republicans’ education reform plan, arguing the proposal will reduce the quality of American schools and leave many low-income children stuck in failing classrooms.

Other top administration officials, such as Education Secretary Arne Duncan, already have blasted the proposal, which passed the House Education Committee earlier this week. But Saturday marked the first time the president weighed in on the legislation, and while he didn’t issue a formal veto threat, he made clear he vehemently opposes the bill.

“It’s pretty commonsense that an education bill should actually improve education. But as we speak, there’s a Republican bill in Congress that would frankly do the opposite,” Mr. Obama said in his weekly address. “At a time when we have to give every child, everywhere, a fair shot, this Congress would actually allow states to make even deeper cuts into school districts that need the most support, send even more money to some of the wealthiest school districts in America, and turn back the clock to a time when too many students were left behind in failing schools. Denying a quality education to the children of working families is as wrong as denying health care or child care to working families. We are better than this.”

Notice how Strongman Obama uses the word "denying" ? This is how socialists communicate their message.
