If you are having a good day, and just want to ruin it, then go to paulwhite's Blog at: www.napervilledemocrats.org/blog/57Here you can read about how bad the SB is, that Wheatland was closed because of declining enrollments, and other nonsense. Oh, and he refers to George Vickers as a "dintinguished local resident". Also, there is a place to post feedback if you might happen to disagree with some of his statements.

Only in his world, an increase of Students is decreasing enrollment. The guy had 5 Vote NO signs on his lawn.

I love the Toady's comments here (just to give you an insight into their warped minds) www.napervilledemocrats.org/node/2394#commentAnd when told his facts are wrong states that 'we have to get real here.' Apparently, getting 'real' with facts isn't what he meant.... it's about accomplishing something (anything), the facts be d4mned.

I think I know where CFO/CRAFT/White/Ari/Vickers/Davitt/Caulfield/etc do their shopping. I was at Michael's Fresh Market on Rt 59, by Sam's Club, the other day, and I saw that they had FUD brand hotdogs (I'm not kidding). Boy, I bet I know what these guys have for lunch every day.

Unfortunately, by allowing Mr White to post this trash on their site, I am forever associating the Naperville Township Democratic Organization with this type of thinking in my mind.
Apparently it's a CFO haven.

Apparently it's a CFO haven. You would think they'd be concerned about that - as I feel exactly the same way about the Naperville Dem Org.....maybe they don't care.

I think it's more:
"Why let facts get in the way of a perfectly good agenda?"

IMO you're judging too harshly. First off, the Naperville Dems invited both sides to speak (204thekids and CFO) before the referendum and voted to endorse the ref. The endorsement was proudly posted on 204thekids' website. Secondly, Davitt and Caulfield are huge republicans (nearly every LTE from Davitt to the local papers that's not about the district are letters of support for George Bush), CFO presenter Chuck Kern is the Vice Chair of the Wheatland Township Republican Organization wheatlandrepublican.org/content/view/34/74/, and Ari Rosenthal & Chuck Kern are Wheatland Township Republican Organization Precinct Committemen. www.willclrk.com/images/pdffiles/rpctcomm.pdfIMO those prominent republicans have systematically hurt the district far more than Paul White's looney one-off rants. I don't think this is a partisan issue, so why make it one? The only thing the Naperville Dems are guilty of is allowing free speech.

Free Speech sure, but they're promoting it on their political organization's website, which is funded by the contributions of their members (in fact they proudly take donations by Visa right on the homepage). Additionally, by having it appear as a "blog" of their "contributors" they have lent it legitimacy. Blogspot, myspace, etc exist for this junk, it doesn't need a political organization to legitimize it. Frankly it's clearly NOT a partisan issue at all (heck, I'm a fiscally conservative Repub who just voted for a tax increase ), but you have to agree that by having one-sided discussion dominated by Paul White all over their site it starts to give a funny impression. Also, Defamation should not be classified as Free Speech.

Paul White is at it again. Here's another LTE in today's Sun:
Third high school will never be needed If 600 students attend classes at COD Frontier next year (300 of those on a full-time basis), that will mean even more empty seats at the Waubonsie and Neuqua Valley high schools' main campuses. Combine this with the fact that School District 204 elementary school enrollment dropped by over 200 students this year. Why is 204 still pushing to spend hundreds of millions to build a third high school that will never be needed?
Why did the district spend $100,000 to convince taxpayers to fund this boondoggle?
Something is rotten at 204.
Paul White
Naperville
Yes, Paul...something (someone) is rotten in 204.

Someone needs to slap him with a libel suit. Where is he getting this "the district spent $100,000 to convince taxpayers to fund this boondoggle" crap?
You can't just make this stuff up and spew it, in writing in public places, there are ramifications.
