RE: “For the children” – Shibboleths raised to an art form – some comments on your opinion piece - Winners and Losers – in today’s unlinkable Sun Sentinel.

Mr. Mayo,

I am opposed to any and all public bind issues because they are in open violation of Federal law. I would back a bus up to the Board of Education and fill it with several dozen “alleged perpetrators” for immediate arraignment before the nearest Federal magistrate.

After them, a convoy of buses for the lawyers, the bankers, and the brokers who advance, perpetrate, aid, and abet this fraud

Further, you say that more money for schools is “good for kids”.

Following your premise to its Logical conclusion, a simple step that is alien to practicing modern American Liberals, public education in Washington, DC should be the best in America, indeed in the known universe. Depending on which flexible accounting method is used, similar to Social Security, expenditures are ca. $35,000 per pupil.

Forget about National Merit Scholars and Ivy League recruiters bribing their way into the senior lunch room the place should be spinning out a few Noble Prize winners each year.

My question is simple.

Since public education in D.C. meets or exceeds all modern American Liberal hopes and expectations why aren’t all the President’s daughters in public school?

Get back to me please. After all, it’s for the children.
