I'm looking at CC from the glasses of someone who has actual experience with dealing with it. I'm not at all trusting of our government doing a good job of dealing with anything. What you and most of the other posters fail to understand is that the government is already neck deep in education. Killing off CC isn't going to change that, it will only mean that there will be no effort to tie curricula to the standardized testing that determines school funding. CC and the corresponding SBAC test series are an improvement over NCLB. That is the reality of the situation. I dislike Obama as much as the next guy. I would agree that nearly everything he has done as president has been a disaster. CC is just not one of those things. I think what I'm seeing with a lot of the posters here is that none of us trust a thing that comes from this administration, therefore, CC must be bad. All of the conservative commentators say it's bad, and it came from a bunch of commie libs, so it must be bad.
