Incredible article showing how our legiscritters (DemocRATs in particular - no surprise there) vote against measures that would promote school choice, yet send their own kids to private school.

Go to the original article for the tables - they're very telling, but I can't get them to come up in the article.

When living in Chicago in the late 1980's, and going through another strike by public school teachers, the school superintendent (D. Sharon Grant) had the gaul to announce that she was angry because "her kids were not in school due to the strike". Less than a week later, it was found by a reporter that her kids attend private school. She was forced to resign her position beause of this.

Look at how many public school OFFICIALS send their children to private schools. Makes you wonder sometimes. Of course, democrats want uneducated kids to become uneducated adults, so that they will vote democrat.

..with 47 percent of Representatives and 50 percent of Senators with school-age children affirming ADMITTING that they had exercised the private school choice option...

Which means the numbers are higher considering the liberals probably most certainly lied during the survey.

One cannot expect those people to send THEIR children to the same schools as the children of "COMMON" people.

Sure they're exercising the school choice option, they're not stupid. I'm just thankful they're not doing it with my tax money.
