Why is it good news that Simitian's position on the educational finance subcommittee is being stripped? (This seems to me like a badly misleading article header.) Joe Simitian has a great grasp of educational finance and a solid commitment to schoolchildren state-wide. I can only assume that Perata is so keen to give Arnold enough rope to kill himself -- piling up the pain -- that he's perfectly willing to tolerate any pain to California school-children. For shame.
I've written three East Bay friends asking them to protest to Perata directly (his district includes Berkeley, Alameda, etc.).
