Let's find out if we got anything wrong so -- for that we get off TVs and you leave me.

-- -- Pepe providing text by surprise little bit wasn't ready I still think it about the dark knights can't stop thinking about -- he's not entirely about the movie.

No not at all yet -- -- -- -- -- different in my coming attack.

-- Schools are too easy John you blame this on progressives.

And yeah I don't think it's a coincidence that when we started giving out things like medals for participation.

Schools became easier because if you make things harder some students may not do as well and might hurt their precious self esteem.

But I think a lot of this is also due to that increased emphasis on standardized test its teachers are forced to teach for -- students are given a chance to think.

And I'm sorry but a lot of that falls on George W.

Bush and the No Child Left Behind -- -- Thank -- -- succeeded actually that's a fair but thanks for a Democrat.

You blame blame bush for everything got him and -- -- for that that's what I think livelihoods are -- your honor -- can go and.

But that is true tolerate -- even started.

Gets -- -- -- bush started standardized tests don't know gentlemen I don't know I didn't.

Okay yeah I started thinking our president is the disease.

OK so we can talk about -- -- -- bush made a regulation -- worsen.

Testing and that is the regular school who started standardized testing.

-- let me if I man I don't tell me what diseases.

I happen to be an expert in all manner of diseases and you listen -- -- me.

-- -- -- let me quote from Bob Bush's assistant secretary of education Diane Ravitch -- supporter of No Child Left Behind who in 2010.

Decided she didn't like it.

Then she said quote instead of raising standards.

No Child Left Behind actually lowered standards because many states have done down there test or change the scoring of their -- to say that more kids are passing and actually our.

Okay fine but that's completely irrelevant to the story that we were discuss how we think the point I've got to relevant to this -- bush did that also is.

How -- a relevant to destroy the.

That the story -- that kids are finally saying schools too easy I'm saying.

Part of that is because teachers are teaching were standardized test and they've done down the tests because they want more kids a -- you wanna blame George Bush who now teachers.

We'll dump now that I'm not blaming George Bush John all I'm saying he wanted to blame it all progressive aren't -- are.

-- are you looking to go around I mean you could look at years and years and years of schools' -- in the philosophy behind education and it all comes from liberal.

I don't I don't disagree liberal the look I'm not letting them off the -- not saying there's plenty of blame to -- -- and said -- -- you know what we got a problem here what's bush got to do it.

And that's what I said.

Didn't you know what that's really odd because I didn't say that it all yes -- please you know what I left my kid behind once had arrested.

I can't I can't wait bush and that I just forgot I got three kids and all that.

You know I mean there.

Now I'm told -- founded challenge was in the bush -- so you can't blame I blame you can't blame us.

Yeah I don't Brooke I would take your point more seriously about what I said having -- to do with the story if your point was that we shouldn't make sure real laws.

The way the education system works which has nothing to do with the story whatsoever.

I hate yeah but why did get him on the show to talk about the stories that you guys -- That got you know need something to me it's a fair point and you can expect little island that's why we -- -- dad yeah -- -- Rich you -- tenth eleventh and twelfth -- yet while I'm content show up in the yeah.
