EAG: CHICAGO – In criticizing Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign in 2008, then Sen. Barack Obama pointed out at a Virginia campaign stop that “you can put lipstick on a pig …
“It’s still a pig,” he said in the live CNN broadcast, which was later posted to YouTube.
It seems the same logic could be applied in the president’s hometown of Chicago, where Ald. Walter Burnett Jr. wants to simply rebrand poor performing schools to lure parents in,DNAinfo reports.
Burnett recently discussed two area elementary schools in his district –Franklin Elementary and Manierre Elementary – and offered his solution for saving the latter, which was at one time on the city’s list of schools to close because of low enrollment.
“Quite frankly, what I would like to do is make Manierre ‘Franklin II,’” Burnett told DNAinfo. “Franklin is right down the street. Franklin has a long waiting list to get in there.
“Franklin has a community component,” he added. “So does Manierre. Make it Franklin II, and I guarantee you we’ll fill the school up. Everybody benefits. It’s a no-brainer to me.” more
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. How stupid are these people?
How about Karl Marx HS, better yet Margaret Sanger HS and the inevitable Barack H Obama HS and Islamic peace center.
They should name schools after a brave soldier..
Corporal Punishment
This is SOP for socialists.
Remember a few years ago, when the Army was having some difficulties they gave em new hats? Yeah, don’t fix the problem, just re-name it or dress it up.
“Workplace violence.”
“Man-made disasters.”
“President.”

“Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional,
illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of s$1t by the clean end. “

Why beat around the bush and just name it “Smartest 97% Black Kids School” if you believe that will solve the problem?
Oh yeah, “creative branding” is gonna do it….
Right, so if that’s the case then a name like “Fuck This Shit” aughta do the trick very nicely!
Just name it HaaVerd, DOOK, Purr-do or Yell.
But don’t change the failed curriculum, teachers or administrators.
Harvard Is Our Bitch High School
In 10 years time there will be 1,000 schools named after Barack Hussein Obama. Guaranteed, they will be the most violently out of control schools in the entire nation hosting the wildest acts of savagery imaginable.
Unlike the sad tragedy of Martin Luther King’s name used to pinpoint the worst areas in the country, the schools named after Obama will be fitting tributes to Barack and all he stands for.
Like he said, it’s a no brainier.
He got that right.
In related news, Hillary Clinton is considering changing her name to Hillary SirEdmundHeroicConquerorofMountEverest.
Sir Edmond didn’t know it, but by Hillary being an immaculate conception and her name was given before he climbed Mt. Everest, she was a front runner (prophetic forerunner) to declare Edmond would soon reach the peak in her infant years. As foretold, years later Mt. Everest was conquered and Edmond become a “sir”.
satan has given Hillary many tools to entangle the masses.
…theN Franklin III, IV, V…until Franklin X, which will have the longest waiting list ever.
