When this first broke last week I was fairly ticked off- particularly with the reference to the legislators that were named. The tone itself, giving Mike Prax a " pass" , the whole angle of it, but I could at least abide to some extent until the specific " rumor" was levied. I wonder how Kawasaki would take such a reference? No. The whole issue finds me alternating between anger and then and again an unexpected sense of sadness. Bottom line from my perspective is that there are some parties that are absolutely refusing to step back and critically self- examine policy that has not worked and is in cause of such contest with the public. Instead of some indication of this, the immediate response is attack upon a few who are trying their best to keep us from running off a fiscal cliff, generally, and are basically asking for some accountability and choice in funding with our school system. I support the interior delegations letter in this. A line was crossed, and that's the end of it.
