It isn't rude to hold elected officials accountable for their actions - or inaction. The board has unearned the public trust with so much controversy generated under their watch. It's unfortunate that a member of that board remains; it would've been much better to replace everyone. Congratulations to Mr. Lipton and Dr. Treyz; don't let the voters down. No such kudos for Mr. Breslin. I wish to say, "Good riddance" to the Gavel Queen, but I'm sure she'll be working the sidelines.
I'm glad to see the video generating such spirited debate. I wish the commenters would identify themselves so I could respond, but anonymous criticism is just as valid. 3 points of clarification: 1) a video that defends the public's right to free speech is hardly conservative; and 2) a video in which board members have the first, last and, often, only word can hardly be called libelous; and 3) you can't blast me as conservative AND compare me unfavorably to Michael Moore. That doesn't compute.
I would suggest a more mature and civilized response to this "problem" than posting clearly one sided and libelous videos on the internet...Don't forget, these are parents as well, who live in the same school district as you. With all due respect, doesn't it seem like you're being a little rude?
I don't recall ever mentioning Michael Moore or applauding him for his work. In fact, I believe the majority of his viewers recognize his work as blatantly biased material. It is hardly an effective way to prove a point. It only emphasizes the creator's ability to criticize rather than pose solutions. Maybe this is why we shouldn't people like Michael Moore on our school board?
This is probably the sleaziest form of video editing anyone could indulge in. This video consists of clips meticulously plucked out of context in an effort to negatively portray members of the Katonah-Lewisboro school district.
Generally, I take no interest in the dealings of our administration and school board. However, upon viewing this compilation, I found myself eager to express my feelings and the feelings of many of my fellow classmates.
We, as a student body, have no interest in being led by a board of educators that promote themselves through harassing their competition. This video does nothing besides attempt to embarrass the current members of our school board. I must offer my applause, the maker of this video managed to seize hours upon hours of footage and select which twenty second pieces reflect negatively on our school district.

...and yet Michael Moore was neither mentioned nor praised by recent posters.
So let's agree - If what Michael Moore does is complete bullshit, then so is the video.
Deal.

hahaha you shun this type of video editing yet Michael Moore is applauded for using the same tactics: hypocritical?
