Thats pretty funny because that school in Boston doesn't appear to be in the first 100 entries on the list. Hey, why write about a top school on your publication's top-school list when you can write a sob story about the problems schools encounter when they have to teach democrats?

There was a ballot measure a few years ago to let towns hold a vote to reduce this threshold, and the conservatives defeated it -- apparently not content to have ruined the public schools in Orange County or wherever they live, they need to make sure that the lefties in Marin County and Berkeley can't opt to tax themselves to make their own schools better.

This is especially funny, because the actual real-live California conservatives on this board swear they are the only California conservatives left in California. You talking about all the conservatives that voted for Feinstein, Pelosi, and that Republican mayor in LA?
You might as well be blaming it on martians!
