It is a very funny clip. The truth about education in this country is that we are all partly to blame. It's partly the fault of the teachers for letting the kids who aren't learning pass on the the next grade so they don't feel bad or look bad in front of their peers. It's partly the kids fault for not giving a damn about learning in the first place. It's partly the parents fault for being so busy with work, updating their myspace, etc. to even ask the kids how their day went or where they had problems in school and find out how they could help.
I feel lucky to have had a mom who was very involved in our school and the learning process, and thank god that I took personal responsibility for learning early on in my education. It's fascinating that these people would want to be on TV so badly that they were willing to exhibit their own personal level of idiocy to the world. It's sad we are more concerned with what clothes the Hollywood actors are wearing than helping the less fortunate in our own communities. We are more concerned with getting on a lame TV show than what's going on in the world (i.e. Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel) I think the American people need to get their heads out of the sand.
