There I Go Again!

What follows is a letter I sent to The Eccentric after being surveyed about Schools of Choice in the West Bloomfield School District
*****************
EPIC-MRA is doing a survey commissioned by the West Bloomfield School District. I know this because I just received a call and was surveyed. Some of the questions were loaded. So now, in addition to paying for "The Laker", which more aptly should be called "Pravda", and having to listen to and pay for radio commercials featuring Gary Faber, Ed.D., we now get to pay for what comes close to "push polling". Well, Big Brother knows best!
*******************
By way of explanation, "push polling" refers to the practice of doing a poll with the intention of putting out misinformation or disinformation, rather than actually gathering information. In this case, Gary Faber Ed.D. frames the debate over the budget crunch in terms of "Schools of Choice", calling it the "Elephant in the Living Room," whereas in reality, as I have indicated before, Faber is the "Elephant in the Living Room." He is truly the Little King, and, just like an elephant, this King has no clothes.
