Allow me to quote a footnote to my post of August 6 of this year:
1The Globe of course has already run a "this raises questions" piece on the national push for vouchers. I don't think it is out of the realm for us to see them run an editorial sometime soon endorsing them, possibly repeating the old "anti-Catholic" canard. Don't be fooled; vouchers are a major failure.
While they didn't attempt the "anti-Catholic" canard, they did of course blame the teachers' unions for opposition in today's editorial.
All the silly rhetorical attempts of not thinking ideas are bad just because they are Republican and flourishes around creativity won't dodge the vouchers are unpopular across party lines because they stink: they stink for students, they stink for districts, and they stink for state budgets.
Send this one straight to the recycling, all. It doesn't warrant better.
