In reply to carolcorbettburris.

I appreciate your comments here and elsewhere, carolcorbettburris, but let me add an unexpected note of approval for the Petrillinator…

Give him props for opening his mouth and saying out loud what so many of the charterites/privatizers think in private but have denied in public up to now. One of the greatest weapons that the edubullies have is the large number of misunderstandings about charters & vouchers that the vast majority of people have about these faulty eduproducts. From whence do those misunderstandings arise? In general, from what people understand about, or expect of, public schools. And just who is loath to properly and honestly correct those misunderstandings? Precisely those who are $tanding [us] up for $tudent $ucce$$.

Not everyone who makes an appearance on this blog is in total, or partial, or even minimal agreement, with the aims of a “better education for all.” But give credit where credit is due. The recent comments of Michael J Petrilli have provided powerful support to the owner of, and many posters on, this blog.

So no offense meant, but I hope Mr. Petrilli (“one of the nation’s foremost education experts” according to his employer) keeps talking. And talking. And talking.

“A site to discuss better education for all” can use all the support it can get.
