Heilmann. In doing so she's using information Mrs. Thiel has said all along, but instead of being able to admit she was wrong and Thiel was right, she claims to have rendered her opinion based on information from an "unverified source." <BR/><BR/>I guess we're supposed to feel good knowing Mrs. Monte has finally been able to give a thumbs up to the administration for one of its decisions. While I'm sure we're all delighted to see Mrs. Monte eating some crow so soon after Thanksgiving, there's a few problems with what she's posted. <BR/><BR/>First, as already said, she can't give credit where credit is due when it involves someone she views as a nemesis. Next, she's basing her revised opinion on a so-called "unverified source." That's never a smart thing to do. Personally I would want a school board member, should she ever make it that far, to base their decisions on that which can be verified, not be willy nilly in their approach. Finally, and this may be the biggest problem of all, but hopefully one that she's learned a lesson from. Before opening mouth and inserting foot or sitting down at the 'puter to attack someone's job performance and reputation, ask questions and get answers. Don't throw out innuendo just to get a rise out of some people while painting others in a bad light. <BR/><BR/>If she can start behaving like a changed woman I may buy her newfound appreciation for the super. My bet is this is just another example of chameleon-like behavior from a woman desperate to get support from anyone she can. It can't last.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
