They're destroying unions and teacher benefits. They empowered bureaucrats over parents to decide what's best for their children. They created a two-tiered, class and income-based system. It favors affluent communities over poor ones. 

They want inner city kids deprived of real education and future prospects. They put public education on the chopping block for elimination.

The Times and other media scoundrels ignore what's most important to report and explain. The Washington Post matches its anti-populist agenda.

On September 10, its editorial headlined "Chicago teachers resisting much needed education reforms." 

A litany of inverted truths and lies followed. Union officials are called hardline. Emanuel is portrayed favorably. His agenda is right, said the Post. So is Obama's destructive Race to the Top, it claims.

His "administration championed reforms" Chicago union officials are fighting. They're trying to "preserve" a "status quo" they should oppose. 

The Post, Times, and other media scoundrels have things backwards. They support corporate bottom line priorities. They want public education made another profit center. 

They want unions busted. They want millions of kids denied futures. They want America made less livable than now. They support an agenda demanding condemnation.
