There was more at stake in the bond levy than a new high school and
remodeled elementary schools. I have no way of knowing what prompted individual yes
or no votes. Some people may have felt private economic pressures precluded
bond support and reluctantly voted against it. That is a painful dilemma I
understand and sympathize with, and certainly do not criticize. However,
that specific group of voters probably did not significantly impact the levy.
Then who did? The follow remarks are directed to the latte sipping liberals
(identified in previous posts as the limousine liberals) who just don't get
it, but in a patronizing, silly way think they are just a bit brighter, more
culturally sensitive, and especially, more esthetically aware than the rest
of us You silly gits, you are too clever by half. Which one of you wants to
step forward and admit you've been had six ways into Sunday? Do you really
think that you have a better plan which will somehow magically appear over the
summer and pass in the fall? If so, how many of you would like to come
forward, embrace the efforts, and claim association and political kinship with the
three people (Janice Willard, Jim Prall, and Roberta Radavich) who placed
their names on the piece of trash that was passed out at the high school
yesterday? The following paragraph, drawn from their incredibly offensive effort
-- including the ridiculous capitalization -- featured this ludicrous
scenario.
"A line of cars builds up at the parking lot entrance, where you must pas
the gamut of THE GATE. Here a uniformed (armed?) security guard checks each
car. You must show your student ID card and submit to a thorough inspection
of your car to ascertain that no unauthorized student is hiding in there,
being sneaked off campus with you."
(Hint to author(s): this sophomoric piece of shit, suffers not only because
of the poorly written content but in general appearance - i.e. almost
illegible copy quality, no apparent margins on the left side of the page, and an
indescribably amateurish layout. As a convincing document this rates an "F")
If this little troika of trouble makers isn't to your taste, rest assured
the number crunching opponents of the levy will be even less to your liking.
If you think you can ever create - much less pass a levy- that will receive
the blessing of Christ Church leadership or members, think again. No
"government" school district will ever receive monetary or philosophical support from
that congregation. The enemy of your enemy is not your friend. And,
frankly, I don't believe that Dale Courtney mislead you. Whatever the merits, or
lack there of, of Dale's graphs and pie charts, I am willing to bet that he
never pretended to any of you that he supported public education. You may have
imagined that he did because it suited your agenda however this was your
naivete, not his deception. A strategic error of this magnitude will come back
to tear a huge chunk out your collective asses when you go hat in hand for
his "help" in the future.
If you are read this failed levy as the removal of an obstacle which will
pave the way for a new and "improved" bond, you are monumentally mistaken.
But have at it and, I hope, in a very public way. I'd like to know who you
are; I already know what you are.

just too many of them. But you can do something, and the difference between
doing something and doing nothing is everything." Daniel Berrigan
