[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So in other words, people are taking umbrage at a proposal that the school board did not pass? I don't get it.[/quote]

Seems like the GOP isn't into governing so much as shutting things down.[/quote]
I think anyone voting for the GOP wants just that. They just want a new SB to stop the initiatives of the current SB. No need to present new ideas. It wouldn't be hard to return to FCPS from 10 years ago. No need for new ideas. [/quote]

New ideas are exactly what's needed, and what another 12-0 Democratic board won't offer.  The local Democrats don't just want to have a majority on the School Board; they want to occupy every seat so that individual members can continue to scratch each other's back, engage in blatant self-dealing, and get away with it with no one calling them out (and certainly not in a public setting).

The Washington Post recognized the pitfalls of such total dominance when it endorsed Pat Herrity for re-election to prevent an all-Democratic Board of Supervisors. The same considerations apply in full force to the School Board elections - residents will be much better served in the long run if we have folks like Saundra Davis and Paul Bartkowski on the board to question what the likes of Karl Frisch are trying to shove down everyone's throat.
