Another liberal mugged by reality. I’d love to know how many of the big DC elite liberals who are so “supportive” of public education have their children in the DC schools. I’d wager the number is zero.

Want a real eye-opener, look at stats on how many public school teachers send their kids to private schools.

I don't fault them for protecting their children. This is their first responsiblity.

I do fault them for the disasterous policies the advocate. But that is a separate issue.

But you would think that the knowledge that the public school system is unacceptable for their own children would effect their assessment of how their public education policies are working. It really does seem there is a disconnect, and they just don't care about the children trapped in their schools.
