Great column in Sunday's MJS: MPS Board

After the April 1 Supreme Court election, there were cries to have Supreme Court judges appointed rather than elected positions.

Wonderful. Let's take the right to vote away from citiziens.

Now there's word that Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barett and a Milwaukee alderman want the city to have greater control of the Milwaukee Public Schools. Do they want the MPS School Board to be an appointed board? That would be a horrendous idea, a local school baord with no accountability to the taxpayers and voters.

Barrett can't do the job he was elected to and now he wants to be MPS Superintendent?

Barbara Miner points out how bad this idea really is.
