While not a discussion on NCLB I do want to make a trivia point.

NCLB wasn't a Bush'ism. It was a bipartisan effort that was a pet project of President Bush and Senator Kennedy. It was something Kennedy wanted to do for a long time and when Bush entered the Presidency they had a common project to work on. This is something that pundits conveniently forget.
