Education News, Analysis, and Commentary
Arne Duncan is threatening waivers and Congress is grumbling. There is howling on the right and left about the feds being too pushy and punishing schools and teachers.

It’s 2022. A new year. New fishing possibilities. Here, at the end of last year, is Fish Porn Mayor Kevin Kosar with some nice trout in South Carolina. He’s done a lot of work in the ed sector and by day he covers several government functions for AEI. Send me your late pics from 2021 …
It’s unclear to me how Kevin Kosar stays either employed or married given how much time he spends fishing with his daughter. But she is one lucky girl. If you are looking for hundreds of pictures of education people fishing – often with their families – then you have come to the right place.
Kevin Kosar lives the ‘take a kid fishing‘ lifestyle. He’s a frequent fish pic contributor around here, sometime guestblogger, and has locked horns, or rather antlers, with Ali Fuller about who runs the show.

The battle for mayor of Fish Porn is on. Last week we revealed Kevin Kosar’s doomsday device: His new fishing blog and boating articles. A lock on the mayorship? Not so fast. Bellwether’s Ali Fuller. Well, she was unimpressed. So she sent this. It’s not technically a fish. Or really a fish in any sense. It’s …

It’s warming up, that can only mean one thing around here….fish pictures. That, and the shad run is on in the east. Here’s Kevin Kosar (education analyst, whiskey expert, father extraordinaire, and perennial candidate for mayor of Fish Porn) with a nice one from the Potomac River. Shad are an amazing fish. Here’s John McPhee’s …

Education analyst and professional whiskey expert Kevin Kosar took his son fishing along with a friend. They hooked into this big (31″) catfish near Fletcher’s Cove on the Potomac. Also – and Potomac-related – don’t miss his take on CRS. Through this link you will find hundreds of pictures of education types with fish. You can …
