Obama picks Chicago crony as Education Secretary
Cronyism is alive and well in the incoming administration, just as it has been in the outgoing one. Arne Duncan, Harvard grad:
Barack Obama’s newly selected education secretary may need to visit a grammarian before he takes on the American education system. During his introductory remarks in Chicago today, Arne Duncan, the outgoing Chicago public schools chief, mixed up his personal pronouns. His elementary school teacher is cringing somewhere.
Find the error: “I want to thank our mutual friend John Rogers who has been a mentor and friend to me since I was ten years old. He gave my sister and I the opportunity to start a great school in the South side of Chicago…”
Answer: He should have said ”my sister and me” instead of “my sister and I.”
Edyookashun iz a gud thang!
OK, well at least Duncan can do for America’s schools what he did for Chicago’s schools, and that’s a good thing. Or not.
God help us.
