If ...where your child attends school is irrevelant. If you have the means to send them to private school, you will regardless of the school system. Did not Loupassi himself attend private school? If so he never expierenced the system that he "claims" he wanted overhaled, not sure the record supports that however, and while I agree the issue of school choice is mute, Loupassi poor record in numerous areas is a valid criticism. Marrs had a better record than Loupassi and he lost to an independent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4016574119422355102.post-68154280878605815052007-05-13T00:35:00.000-04:002007-05-13T00:35:00.000-04:00Gee, I can't BELIEVE that Mr. Loupassi would have ...Gee, I can't BELIEVE that Mr. Loupassi would have his kids in private schools, given the fabulous shape of the Richmond School System that has been DECADES IN THE MAKING, LONG BEFORE MR. LOUPASSI WAS OUT OF GRADE SCHOOL! How crazy! As a parent, I would hope to serve by creating positive change, but WOULD NEVER subject my children to the current state of the Richmond City educational system. Has anyone checked out those stats? To put your kids in that school system when you have other options should be classified as child abuse. Give me a break...just because you chose public service does not mean your children should suffer as a result. Your Manoli-bashing strategy going forward should not include this issue...you will be crushed like a bug.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4016574119422355102.post-6768733014083801322007-05-09T08:22:00.000-04:002007-05-09T08:22:00.000-04:00Loupassi is an opportunist in sheeps clothing. He ...Loupassi is an opportunist in sheeps clothing. He moved into the district just to be able to run then introduced legislation giving more control of the RMA to Chesterfield in a feeble attempt to get votes. He was short sighted enough not to realize he didn't have the clout to pull it off, an embarassed himself in the process. He says he'll put education first with his kids safely in private school. He says he'll introduce legislation to cap property assesments, but defended 80%+ increases in the city for six years and never once introduced legislation when it would have made a difference. He says he will control spending, but raised the tax rates to increase revenue every single year he was on council. He says he'll fight crime and it's the only thing that he won't have the time to tackle as a legislator. Let's let him go back to defending criminals like the masturbator and send a strong message that we need someone with ethics, honesty and who lives south of the river to represent the 68th.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
