2. It's why I'm voting NO ON 2 in the Commonwealth of MA on 8 Sep.

Those YES brassturds are funding a very slick ad campaign that makes it sound like voting YES will bring the poor slobs with children "better PUBLIC schools." What it does is bring more cash to CHARTER schools.

I've explained the ad to about ten older people who were completely hornswoggled by it. They were APPALLED that they misunderstood it, too.

I really hope the "HELL NO" people fire up an ad close to the day.


I'd like to see the day when a kid gets the same EXCELLENT education, no matter what his or her zip code might be. Screw this "band aid on a gaping wound" approach.

FWIW, I have no children in public school at present--I just think those little farts ARE our future.
