[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate this. We’re stuck with the clown show of the progressive establishment who is so far off base in so many respects - or the clown show of Republicans who just want to “own the libs.” [/quote] There's no happy medium anymore. If you're a D or R and attempt to compromise or disagree with the extreme of your own party than you're exiled and publicly and relentlessly torn apart. [/quote] I’m trying not to get too depressed about it because it’s early days still and there’s no telling who from the current board is going to run again and who’s not, and maybe there’s room for sensible Republicans or Democrats somewhere. But man. This is depressing.[/quote] Megan McLaughlin is a reasonable SB member. Ilryong Moon was a great at-large candidate that I wish would come back. Fairfax is a primarily democratic community so the best source of community action is speaking with the Fairfax Democratic party and voicing the kinds of traits we value in candidates. Solutions to problems with the SB are not found through the GOP by any means.[/quote] it is a low bar when Megan is considered reasonable. She lives in my neighborhood and she did nothing to get kids back in school. And then when they did open schools she was 100% okay with teachers staying virtual and kids basically having virtual school inside the building. That is not back to school.[/quote] I don't think you realize that a substantial portion of school families agreed with that. [/quote] A substantial number of Americans thought invading Iraq was a good idea too. Does that get W. off the hook? Elected officials need to take responsibility for their mistakes. Or at least not act affronted when the voters hold them responsible.[/quote]
