First Up: NYC Schools Chancellor Joel Klein

NYC Schools Chancellor Joel Klein, pictured here both in his 1922 starring role in "Nosferatu" and in his role as NYC Schools Chancellor. In both roles, he sucked the life out of those around him. In the 1922 film, he nourished himself on the lifeblood of others. In his role as NYC Schools Chancellor, Herr Klein sustains himself by crushing the creative spirits of children and teachers alike. He lives through the crushing of spirits and souls. And if you are a parent attempting to question him at a "Town Hall" meeting, he tries to hypnotize you by going silent, staring at you, and then slinking out the back door without answering the charges of the angry mob. In coming blogs, we will give you his resume and career accomplishments, talk about the destruction he hath wrought, and introduce you to some of his underworld colleagues, such as Mayor Mike Bloomberg ("Little Fidel") and NYC Schools Chief Accountability Czar/Destroyer of Public Education/Hater of Teachers, James Liebman. The ironic thing is, although none of these guys were ever near a public school classroom in their professional lives, they feel qualified to tell parents, teachers and students how to run their collective business. Coming soon...an introduction to NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg ("Little Fidel"). In future blogs, the only pictures of these two you will see will be Bloomberg in his Cuban General's uniform and Klein as Nosferatu. This is a kindly as I can reasonably represent them.
