A listening post monitoring public education and teachers’ unions.

U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan gave the commencement speech at Foothill College in northern California last Friday, and let slip the Obama Administration’s true education agenda.

The headline at Palo Alto Online read, “Arne Duncan tells Foothill grads ‘to be shape-shifters’.” Here’s the relevant segment of his speech:

The concept of the Protean Career is based on the myth of the Greek sea god, Proteus. Proteus had two distinct abilities. First, he could change shapes with relative ease, from a wild boar to a lion, or from fire to a flood. This ability to shape-shift is the source of the popular meaning of the word “protean”–it refers to the ability to adapt to change and meet new challenges.

But Proteus’s second, lesser-known ability was the gift of prophecy. He was able to foresee the future–and answer any questions put to him about what the future held. And here, too, I think your ability to anticipate change and foresee job opportunities will help determine your success in the job market.

This is a clear message to graduates to become shape-shifters and join the reptilian conspiracy that controls the federal government and the media. It has long been known that President Obama is a reptilian shapeshifter, and also former U.S. Presidents George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton (Hillary, too).

Crazy? You be the judge.
