Give it up with the anti Bush rhetoric already. Betcha just hate it that Obama is getting some of the same treatment.
Live in the present and for the future.

True, but from earlier posts I gather that CCCS considers educating children in Spanish their major mission. Even if the school were not substandard this seems inappropriate. Or perhaps the real issue is whether the parents of the students in a particular school are the ones most qualified to judge the quality of the school.

Sounds like major religious prejudice and hatred on the part of Nick to me. Or maybe deep-seated envy derived from a lack of influence on the local election and small body parts.

Well said. I did not say nor imply nor do I believe in trying to erase other cultures or languages. In fact it is largely because we are composed of so many of different cultures and languages that the ability to communicate and therefore govern in a single language is of paramount importance to our future and our childrens' future. I heartily applaud those who are fluent in more than one language. But if they live here, work here, and vote here, then English must be one of them, and if one agrees that a major purpose of public education is to produce educated voters, then education in English must take priority over other languages..

Fighting? I see no one fighting. I see a do-nothing similar to Barbara Boxer (who's been in office 17 years and introduced the astounding total of 3 bills) riding on her husband's coattails.

One more thing. Charter schools are allowed to exist based on their ability to educate to a defined standard. If they don't meet the standard, they should not exist. That's the deal. If you prefer substandard education for your kids, find a private school that offers what you want.

Down with the two party system and its idealogues on both sides. Up with coherent thought, civil dialogue, and issue-based politics.
