Let me get this straight. You mean to tell me that they had a
rascist, compulsive gambler sitting as Chairman of a private,
right-wing, home-schooling company? With a beautiful little African-American girl on its home page...
MCLEAN, Va., Oct. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- K12 Inc. today announced that
William J. Bennett has resigned as an employee, and as Chairman and
member of the company's Board of Directors, effective immediately. K12
Inc. said the Board accepted his resignation, thanking him for his
contributions to the company. K12 Inc. said that it has no
relationship with, or involvement in, Dr. Bennett's radio program. The
opinions expressed by Dr. Bennett on his radio program are his and his
alone.
Dr. Bennett, in a separate statement said: "I am in the midst of a
political battle based on a coordinated campaign willfully distorting
my views, my record, and my statements. Given the controversy
surrounding the remarks I made on my radio show, I am stepping down
from my positions at K12, so that neither the mission of the company,
nor its children, are affected, distracted, or harmed in any way."
a coordinated campaign willfully distorting my views, my record, and my statements.
Remember
how they hooted at Hillary when she said, correctly, that there was a
vast right-wing conspiracy to bring down her husband? I'm sure Tweety
will demand that Bennett provide proof of this coordinated campaign
this very evening.
I suppose I could say that those ill-advised coments were the most expensive mistake Bennett's made since he lost $500,000 at the Bellagio, but that would be ridiculous and morally reprehensible.
