<DIV>I think you did well. As long as Tom Luna believes his opposition is
not “teachers” but “union goons,” he has a refuge he doesn’t even have to
question. And as for the rest of the Idaho population, those “union goons are
misleading you about the intent of the new laws.” Ignoring educational
philosophy, even a cursory reading of the new laws has to leave one wondering
about the funding. The slight of hand he used to describe education
funding is really toying with the truth. As an example: He zeroes
out the lottery money which was dedicated to school building funds and puts it
into the general fund, thereby using it to supplant general fund
monies,,forever. He calls this, “giving local boards more
flexibility.”</DIV>

<DIV>While I was at Costco today, Tom Luna was in front of me in the line
going out the door. I couldn't believe the irony because about two hours
before I had just signed a petition to recall him and appeal his
legislation. I didn't want to say anything to him at first because he was
with his family, wife and two little girls. I thought it rude to say
something in front of them.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But, I was lucky, his family moved away from him because he was too
out of shape to keep up with them. Good thing he isn't paid for
performance or he would be broke. I wish I knew I was going to see him
because I would have said something more creative. But I did tell him that
it wasn't a good idea to destroy education in Idaho. He just shook his
head and told me to have a good day. I told him that was difficult for
many people to do because of him. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What would you have said to him?</DIV>
