The Sky is falling

Here’s the predictable Sky is falling story that has me so cranked. (Crap. Its half past midnight already. I sure hope I can get some shut eye tonight)

Let me make this clear. Its irrelevant if the District purposefully made sure it was in this position so that it could whimper about the sky falling. Oh, its maddening but if, IF its true then we will just have to deal with it. If halting the Red Plan will be this disastrous then we need a competent school board to weigh this dreadful possibility. Voters must ask themselves if they really want the four school board members who have been asleep at the wheel for the past four years to navigate us through this mess or if they demand alert drivers?

Skepticism is warranted. This is a worst case scenario presented by folks who have lied to the public. I hate saying that about Kerry Leider. Kerry and I go way back. He once credited me with saving his job from Laura Condon. But Kerry lied about the cost of the Red Plan two years ago when that knowledge could have saved Duluth all the aggravation that this civil war is causing. How the Hell can we believe that he isn’t inflating the worse case scenario today?

I’ll be honest. I don’t believe a single thing coming out of Dr. Dixon’s administration. I believe a great many of his administrators would like to tell the truth but know that if they do they will be out looking for a new job with lousy references. I’ve worked with a lot of these folks. I admired them. But honestly. If this is what they have to do to keep a lousy job…….

If you go to the post on Ketty Leider that I linked to you will see that it appears Kerry lied to Sarah Horner two years ago. If he didn’t then Gary Glass lied. I trust Gary. Sarah trusts Kerry.

The sky must really be falling.
