Bipartisan group supports public schools
A new group headed up by former Lt. Governor Bill Ratliff is taking aim at the pro-voucher crowd:
"We don't understand how it is that if you have a campus with 500 children and 100 somehow ... take advantage of the voucher and go somewhere else, how does that affect the other 400?" Ratliff said. "If it's a bad school and we take a hundred of them out with vouchers, it's still a bad school. We believe a far better course ... is fix the school. Don't abandon 400 children for the sake of the hundred."
Gee, we've been saying that for a while. Good to see some decent Republicans (like Ratliff) stand up and say it with us.
