AP: Perry says Texas is making great progess in education

Obviously, from Perry's perspective we are making great progress. The State Board of Education has become the propaganda arm of the right wing putting lots of trash into our textbooks. Schools are under funded to the point where their existence is threatened. Cronies are given every chance to take taxpayer money. Texas' universities are rapidly becoming unaffordable for middle class students. What's not to like?

Psst: Bill White is for a robust, functional public education.
