Real Fearmongering!
Real Distortion!
Real, Real Lying! To CHILDREN.
Not only is fear being disseminated by Real Results bloggers on local internet message boards but these folks have the frigging chutzpah to print the lies on their fancy, full-color, tri-fold official campaign flyer. Now, that's a real load of real manure from Real Results. The kind that floats in a punch bowl.
What's not funny are the (real) results of this self-serving propaganda: distraught high school kids who participate in the program believing that it is threatened by the current School Board. The Kids First majority School Board.
These kids showed up in numbers last night at the Boys and Girls Club, voicing their angst about the perceived demise of their cherished theatre program, a false perception, being fanned and inflamed by the Real Results campaign. Thank goodness, School Board candidate Jean Marie Mitchell was on hand to explain to these anxious children that the current School Board and Superintendent were fully supportive of their theatre program.
Real Results: lying to children is not nice.
Nice stock photos of the kids, too bad the Real Results Team members don't know any REAL Students
ReplyDeleteMaybe they can rent some?
ReplyDeleteDisgraceful!
ReplyDeleteOn a more positive note, congrats! to Irene Sobolov- named Citizen of Year, this evening. Well deserved!
I guess this is the "professionalism" they are always boasting of not to mention their "real world knowhow." Can't wait for the Sullivan/RealResults spin. It's time for them to change their slogan of "higher standards;lower taxes" to "big fat lies; lower standards."
ReplyDeleteThey really should get ALL the facts before they decide to post/blog anything...
ReplyDeleteIronically, the only person who did not support funding the theater arts program was Sullivan.
ReplyDeleteIncidently, sullivan is the chair of
athletics/theater arts/extracurricular activites committee and the facilites/transportation/technology committee or better known as everything RR wants to fix.
We're all still waiting to hear exactly how Sullivan/RealResults plans to suck $10K out of each class without program cuts .... waiting and waiting....
ReplyDeletePut on your thinking cap, Hullabaloo.
ReplyDeleteFirst you unscrew every single light bulb in the classroom- spare the darkness, spoil the child. Next you take their little chairs and beak them into bits- fine kindling for winter. There's your savings on heat, the little bastards can stand. Books? Don't buy 'em. I say double the class size-- the little ones can squeeze in, the bigger kids, well... they're too damn fat, put 'em all on Jenny Craig.
Hullabaloo, that's how you get real results.
Thanks Avenger. Mea culpa. I must have lost my mind imagining that Real Results see the public schools as anything other than a chopping block for tax relief. Education;schemeducation. Here come the vouchers!Or better yet the factory/schools: for even more tax relief and let those pampered children start a acquiring that "real world knowhow" early (and they can pay towards their education and health care benefits too).
ReplyDeleteThat's why I always put "Real Results" in quotes. Perhaps they should do the same with their "facts".
