Rhee Visits CIA
D.C. Schools Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee keeps a robust schedule of speaking engagements but this one was not a typical gig: across the river to CIA headquarters in Langley, Va.
The occasion was the agency's celebration of Asian Pacific Heritage Month. No text was available, but CIA spokesman George Little said Rhee told an audience of several hundred about the challenges she faces in her work and that the phrase "anything is possible in America" has meaning only if children receive a good education.
No word if she got any tips on clandestine tactics to advance her reform agenda.

I think it is ironic that Rhee spoke at the CIA because of her secretive, non-inclusive and clandestine approach to running schools.
Oh, and I should not forget fear driven.
