Massachusetts

Democrats for Education Reform Massachusetts is pushing a poll on Boston teachers that has two problems: we have no way to evaluate the poll, and we have no way of evaluating DFER MA.

There was a lot of pretend, deceit, manipulation, and lying in politics in 2015, but there can be only one winner of the coveted Jocelyn Hutt Award for Fraud in Politics.

Planned Parenthood protesters win not in changing women’s minds but in changing their calculus. Protesters inculcate fear and shame amongst women seeking to receive the healthcare that is their right. Protesters win even on days when they are not there by inculcating the mental anguish potential patients feel when thinking about their presence. They win by necessitating bulletproof glass and screenings for weapons upon to enter a healthcare clinic. They win by making the threat of violence a part of accessing women’s healthcare.

What if the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance fraud "poll" really is legitimate? Here are some steps the Alliance could take to show it has run a  valid poll.
