"So
if states and districts are doing a great job, we're going to highlight
those innovative practices and shine a spotlight on them, but where we
see a state or district operating in bad faith and doing something
counter to the president's intent, we're going to come down like a ton
of bricks." Arne Duncan March 25, 2009 Thanks to LQ.

Sorry Alexander. But you don't get the cigar. On my blog I was asking for the current "Ton of bricks" quote. This one is from back in March.
