I came across this a few days ago. Now this is some scary s**t.

Announcement: “I [Pam Mazanec] am running for the State Board of Education for the 4th Congressional District! I will be a voice for parents and taxpayers who expect improved education outcomes, funding that follows the child, enhanced school choice and competition, fiscal responsibility and accountability. I look forward to the opportunity to serve and appreciate your support!””

The divine Ms. M is one of the DCSD Board of Ed’s enforcers. She spends much of each day  going from one Facebook site to another defending the Board with the usual Republican talking points. It is usually along the line that vouchers are good unions are bad – you get the idea. At times though she can get pretty nasty. I quote:

That’s just it, (name removed) what is there not to like about school choice? That Teachers Unions and left leaning groups don’t like it? That some wealthy men and right leaning groups do? Wasn’t the same true of charter schools? And aren’t parents begging for more? IMO, that’s pretty good evidence that choice is good.

I suspect the party faithful are scrubbing her posts at this moment.
