WEEKEND QUOTABLES

I was just asking, whatever happened to Solis?

"...we've seen our brothers and sisters in the public employees unions willing to give their share, and to negotiate in good faith to help their states get through tough times. But the governors in Wisconsin and Ohio aren't just asking workers to tighten their belts, they're demanding that they give up their uniquely American rights as workers." -- Labor Sec. Hilda Solis

Walker can thank Rhee

"But Walker's argument - that greedy teachers are putting their own interests over the interests of the public - resonates in part because in recent years, many Democrats have made that argument as well. Exhibit A is former D.C. schools chancellor Michelle Rhee." -- Richard Kahlenberg, Washington Post

At Moscowitz' Upper West Side charter school meeting

"The guests sipped wine and nibbled sushi, guacamole and Gruyere..." -- New York Times
