Maybe minorities will begin to realize that liberals herd the minorities into failing, union controlled, rat hole urban schools while they “choose” to send their own kids to good private schools. It may also begin to dawn on minorities that the liberals “choose” to situate the abortion clinics in minority neighborhoods.

Haha. Don’t know that part.

Mind you I’m just including the Jeb Bush part because he’s in the original article.

Just about every member of Congress sends his or her kids to private schools while screaming from the mountaintops the virtues of state run schools.

In fact, a huge portion of teacher who teach in the state run schools send THEIR kids to private schools.

Why don't you speak out against them, Jeb?

Does it matter. Jeb isn’t cheerleading the public schools like Damon.

Why is JB even opening his mouth about MD. MD is a nothingness in the political world.

Jeb, STFU!

Well, c'mon now... that only makes sense. I mean, I keep my plunger next to the toilet, right? Same thing...

At least the kids in the public schools won’t have to deal with Damon’s no-doubt obnoxious, “Don’t you know who I am?” little brats.
And can you imagine what it would be like for parents having to put up with Damon at PTA meetings?
YECHHHHHH!!

But sure, Damon is a typical leftist hypocrite.So what else is new??

Jeb Bush has the right to criticize liberal hypocrisy. Get over it.

expand the criticism to congress

a graphic showing the percentage of each party sending their kids to public school would be most enlightening

Maybe Matt Damon saw the beat down of the white kid by three black bullies, but his liberalism just won’t let him speak what he may really think about it.

So he puts his kids in a private school and take the heat.

What has Jeb done to end public school failures? Is he prepared to follow the Constitution and shut them down, if not campaign for country-wide vouchers? If not then Jeb is worse than Matt Damon. At least we know that as a liberal, Damon will demand we live a certain way while he lives in luxury. Jeb is just spouting off for attention because everyday is one day closer to 2016. Hillary is seeing a dietician, Jeb is commenting on celebrities.

You really should do your homework. Jeb signed into law school choice vouchers, later determined unconstitutional by the FL Supreme Court. Jeb's Foundation for Excellence in Education includes school choice in its agenda.

Liberal hypocrisy? JB is, himself, a liberal hypocrite!

The reason I framed my post in the form of a question is because I’m unaware of his voucher status. Will he campaign on that for 2016, or will his RINO horn start poking through his face?

Calm down, there are no good private schools in L.A.

It is my firm belief that all elected officials, including school boards send their kids by law to public schools. I imagine policies would change rather quickly if they had to send their children to sub-standard schools.
