[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have to laugh (OK, cry) at the suggestion that optics as opposed to power politics and making one’s friends happy drive School Board decisions. The optics of Frisch screwing Shrevewood for years so he could save a dog park in Oakton are awful. The optics of Tholen shoving aside a staff recommendation so she could make sure no apartments were reassigned to Langley are awful. The optics of Corbett Sanders supporting a $40-45 million addition to West Potomac when Mount Vernon is 20% below capacity are awful. They really don’t care about optics because they live in an echo chamber and can find a way to justify anything they want to do. And they have scores of enablers in the leadership ranks of the Fairfax Democrats who’ll back them up because it’s assumed the Koch Brothers must be behind any criticism of the School Board. [/quote] None hold a candle to Kathy Smith. Way back when only schools with a certain percentage of FARMS had all day K, she sent a poor neighborhood to her own affluent neighborhood school so they could get all day K. Then, when All Day K was approved for every school, she redistricted them out. And, now, this very good Dem sits on the Board of Supervisors.[/quote]
