Do you have a sense of humor about school choice?

I continue to read articles and blogs "refuting" the success of charter schools.  It seems that it comes down to a few things.  First, those who fight charter schools don't like the fact that some people choose to want a different public school.  Second, they think they are opposed to risk.  I don't know how many times that I've heard that the risk of allowing charter schools isn't worth it.  They don't realize that there is a risk to staying with the current system.  Third, they don't like the fact that charter schools may change the criteria for hiring teachers or change the roles of teachers entirely.  Fourth, they think corporations are evil.  Have you seen those blogs that simply want to get corporations out of schools?  Do they not think that corporations might have some good ideas about education, especially as they are the ones that hire our mathematically illiterate kids? 

If those arguments didn't make me angry, I'd think they were funny.
