Who in the hell are YOU, to be questioning ANY of their credentials? Numerous members of the committees are nationally recognized, are proven experts, are folks who have risen through the ranks of education, are published, hold multiple degrees, have decades of experience.

And you? Some nameless, anonymous nobody on the Internet, with delusions of grandeur and a serious narcissism complex, to be thinking [b]you are so much better and know so much better than everyone else. [/b]

This is really an interesting quote. Irony? Anonymous poster condemning another anonymous poster for being anonymous. DCUM at its finest.

Sorry, no - irony doesn't work that way. [b]I'm not the one going around claiming I know more[/b] than any of the committee members. There is no equivalence there.[/quote]

No, you're just the one going around claiming that you know the committee members, but you don't want to share your knowledge and we should trust you in your "faith" in these committee members.  But you are an anonymous poster and think you don't have to share your knowledge.

We have one person asking for information and saying they have not been able to find it.  The other person says, "well, it's not my job to find it.  Go find it yourself because I know it's there."  Other person says, "I can't find it.  Please help."  Other person says, "It's not for me to find.  It's just for me to tell you it's there."

Finally second person says, "Well the committee members are great and have all the experience they need to have."  Second person says, "No, this is not the experience that would help to make the committee work well."  Now that is a truly debatable point.  That is a valid argument.  Were the committee members in positions where they could truly understand the children for whom the standards were being written?  This can be argued.

Another argument that I see is valid is the one about the vetting.  One thing that is concerning is the lack of publishing of certain opinions---which have now come to light.  That is a problem that needs to be addressed, but has not.  The CC website is a promotional website so it is really not a good source.

I am not either PP.  [/quote]
