[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t sign it.  You couldn’t even give me a concrete answer to my question on Cohen.  Go do something productive with your life and stop wasting people’s time.  Vote in new school board members when you can, but this recall BS is stupid.[/quote]
I really don't understand the intense hatred for this SB.  It's almost like a group of people latched onto this because their kids did not go back to school. FCPS followed the general trend of the area.  The SB would have received hate no matter what the decision had been last year.  I can't even imagine having to make those decisions.  I doubt some of you would have performed any better.  All I read and see is a bunch of grown people having a fit but not able to actually verbalize how this SB failed. [/quote]

DP.  The reasons have been stated repeatedly - perhaps you’re just not paying attention.  Yes, the return to school issue was huge.  But so are the priorities of this SB - focusing on renaming schools, changing TJ admission to a lottery, trying to add CRT to the curriculum… these things may not bother you, but they definitely bother thousands of other Fairfax residents.

These issues do bother me a lot, but you are targeting three people for recall  - Tholen lied about something to her constituents, Omeish is using the position for unrelated political grandstanding, so why Cohen?  If you have a problem with the whole school board, then why not try to recall them all?  You had some reason for choosing those three as your focal points.  Also, i am just wondering if this will be effective at all.  I imagine recalls rarely are.[/quote]

It’s clearly, clearly stated on the website that they picked the people who took the least signatures. Would like to recall everyone but McLaughlin but started smaller than 11 people.
