When I stopped laughing derisively at this man-a product of public school education?- I wondered why he wasn't continuing to the logical end of his argument---WHY would vouchers be the death of public schools? What does this say about public schools and the perception of them by the very people who attend them?

Last night I was telling Dan about the ketchup-salsa debate on Feelings and he thought I was crazy. When I said that it was actually covered in IBD and had taken on party line stances, he was appalled. He said, "Doesn't it bother you that the "leaders" of our country are sitting back East drawing over 100k a year arguing about the nutritional value of salsa?"
But that's a whole lot easier than facing the fact that our schools are failing at a huge cost to our country. They're fiddling while America burns.

And then I thought, Does it make any less sense than men arguing about how many nuclear weapons we should build? What's sane about that?
