You evaded the question: Have the number of special education kids increased sufficiently to explain the fall in the performance of the US education system?

I think you know the answer; that's why you want to evade.

And I do know what special education is about.

One of the points that I have made frequently on this board is that Republicans and conservative elitists frequently point to private schools as examples of learning and erudition, citing test scores, etc.
One thing liberals are good at is making excuses. Performnce is what's needed. They're not good at that, though.

That, no doubt, is one reason why statewide school voucher initiatives failed 70-30 in both Michigan and California on Nov. 7.
You think maybe the misleading, basically fraudulent ads from the educational bureaucracy might have had something to do with it? And the megabucks they put behind them? They had no better place to put their money; their jobs were history if they lost this one.

And do you expect the illiterate idiots they've been turning out for years to see through their fog and smoke they generated? California did vote fot Gore, you know.
