In Mitt's science class, Nessie rides on the roof

Mitt proposes we Jindalize all the schools.

This is an actual White Paper, by the way, not an offhand comment like the one he made about how much he likes firing people who provide teaching to you. You will be shocked, just shocked, to learn that the “ideas” in this 35-page-long White Paper are about the same as the ones that John Sununu said on TeeVee, and can be succinctly summarized as follows.

1. Privatize K-12 education to give people Choices and whatnot.
2. Loosen regulations on for-profit college education to stimulate Competition and the subsequent lowering of prices.
3. Destroy Teachers’ Unions because they are Communist, basically.

Does this mean Jindal is back in the running to be (totally not) vetted for VP?  Probably not.  But since his program is going nationwide, maybe he can be secretary of School Choice and/or Demonology or something.

Update:  One wonders if the Louisiana reforms would have even been possible had the Orleans Parish School Board not gotten the ball rolling with these illegal firings in the wake of the 2005 flood. Yet another way we're all still suffering.
