Let's be clear - Ted Strickland has cut funding for Ohio schools

In the upcoming 2010 Ohio gubernatorial campaign you'll hear one thing over and over from Ted Strickland - "I invested in education."

It's so incredibly simple that all I'll do is post this one simple graphic from Ohio's Legislative Budget Office that details Ohio appropriations over the next two years:

In this budget as signed by the Governor, state funding for education in Ohio decreases by 4.8% in 2010, and again by 4.4% in 2011.

Strickland cut education.

Period.
