So They Really Think We’re THAT Stupid

October 14, 2006 By jcsinclair 2 Comments

The people running the Healey campaign may be many things, but they're not stupid.  Whoever dug this story up and sent the anonymous letter to the papers will be far enough removed from the campaign that Healey will be able to maintain … [Read more...]

When White suburban Progressives tweet that Boston Public Schools (BPS) is good, what they really mean is that BPS is good enough. Good enough for POCs who live there.

BPS in 2006: budget = 700 mil, enrollment = 58K, 12K per student. Student achievement = one of the best among large cities.

BPS in 2022: Budget = 1.3 B, enrollment = 48K, 27k per student. Student achievement = Average among large cities.

11/11 The Globe, is worried #mapoli will "turn into a one-party state." WAKE. UP. WE'RE. THERE. ALREADY. It's just the media that can't handle the extinction of MassGOP. It's time them to attend some group therapy sessions for its grief. Enough denial. Move forward.

10/11 Once you grasp the MassGOP is now an uncompromising religion and not a political party who feels responsibilities to #mapoli and does not see success at the ballot box as its mission, all that is left is for all of us who disagree is to ask, "What do we do about that?"
