James: My wife has been a special education teacher for 27 years. If you don't know what the term "special education" means, then I'd suggest you take some time and find out, instead of posing ridiculous questions such as "What do you mean by 'special education students? Kids whose native language is not English?'" Do try to become somewhat knowledgeable about such before you begin your bashing sessions.

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. It really isn't too hard to achieve desired results when one can pick and choose students, and leave the "undesireables" to the public school system.

That, no doubt, is one reason why statewide school voucher initiatives failed 70-30 in both Michigan and California on Nov. 7.
