Some people have a hard time living up to their image.
I know we have problems in public education. But Troy, who delivered remarks at Friday's Federal Relations Luncheon at the Peabody Hotel, said his patience is tried when the critics' chorus rises to a crescendo, washing over everything and anything that has to do with public schools. If America were a person, public education would be its soul. I truly believe that. When the infamous G. Gordon Liddy of Watergate fame said there was a lack of heroes in America because of its public schools, Troy didn't just get mad.
