New Jersey Governor Chris Christie gave the keynote speech at the Jeb Bush Excel in Education Annual Summit in Washington, D.C. Tuesday night. In his 50-minute speech on education reform – one of Christie’s most passionate topics – the governor left no room to question how he feels about teachers’ unions, most specifically the New Jersey Education Association (NJEA).

 

In short: he doesn’t like them.

 

Hosted by the Foundation for Excellence in Education, the audience was comprised of a wide range of VIPs in the education world, state lawmakers

, former Florida Republican Governor Jeb Bush, and Bob Bowdon, director of “The Cartel,” to name a few.

 

As always, Christie was in his usual form.

I saw a bit of this on CSPAN this morning. Great info from the Governor on education and the costs of it in New Jersey. It hasn't posted on CSPAN's web site yet, but keep an eye out for it. Probably a must see for parents.

When will the NJEA understand that they are not dealing with your fathers politician? This is a guy who really understands how to play hardball.
