Oh dear. The education budget Gov. Jeb touts as a huge increase in education not only hands the bills to the locals but is actually a slight decrease in state education funding.
For cheap laughs, read another one of the The Florida Times-Union's unabashedly party-line editorials. This one argues that Republicans have the better record for education but can't marshall a single number (except regarding the much-criticized school "grades") to support its point. It manages to argue both that money doesn't matter and that the Republicans deserve credit for providing more money. A sad and silly piece of work.
