If we allow public funds to be used to support our relatively benign, morally grounded schools, we will have to allow those public funds to be used for any type of private school.

I have no problems with private schools. I graduated from one and so did my mother. Private schools are useful and we often use public funds to pay for their infrastructures and other common needs.

Ron allowed us to see right away the private piece of a person about to become very public. I suspect we're going to see more of her very private world - Laura's private experience. I'm not sure yet how public she's going to be about the actions she's going to have to take.

Millions of public workers have become a kind of privileged new class - a new elite, who live better than their private sector counterparts. Public servants have become the public's masters. No wonder the public is upset.

Second, when comparing private school and public school test scores, it's like apples and oranges. Public schools have to take everyone, but private schools can be selective. It's not accurate or fair to compare the job they do.

In Private (Stuart Crichton Club Mix) (feat. Elton John)
Take your time and tell me
Why you lie?
I realise
That we've been found out this time
We should stand together
If we can
But what you planned
Means there's a difference between ...
What you're gonna say in private
You still want my love, we're in this together
And what you're gonna do in public
Say you were never in love that you can remember
So discrete (She's so discrete)
I never tried to meet (She never)
Your friends or interfere (No)
I took a back seat (Back seat) between ...
On what you're gonna say in private
You still want my love, we're in this together
And what you're gonna do in public
Say you were never in love that you can remember
What you gonna say
When you run back to your wife
I guess it's just the story of her life
What you gonna say
So take your time
And tell me, when did you lie
Oh, I mean
All the time (No)
That there's a difference (A difference) between (between)
On what you're gonna say in private
You still want my love, we're in this together
And what you're gonna do in public
Say you were never in love that you can remember
Tell me what you gonna say (In private) Oooh
(You still want my love, we're in this together)
What you gonna say, what you gonna do
(And what you're gonna do) Baby
(in public) What you gonna say
(Say you were never in love) Oooh
(that you can remember) What you gonna say
Say in private

I believe if a private citizen is able to affect public opinion in a constructive way he doesn't have to be an elected public servant to perform a public service.

Private Eye
Ive got a private eye to see if youve a mother
Ive got a private eye to find out where you go
Ive got a private eye to see if youve a lover
Ive got a private eye to tell me what you know
You really should tread much more careful
Or youre going to get a stareful from my private eye
Ive got a private eye to search the seas and skies
Ive got a private eye to follow you around
Ive got a private eye to tear off your disguise
Ive got a private eye to make you look just like a clown
You really should...
Ive got a private eye to see if youve a mother...
It nearly stopped my heart from beating
When I found out you were meeting my private eye

In Private
(neil tennant / chris lowe)
Take your time and tell me
Where you lie
I realise
That weve been found out this time
We should stay together
If we can
But what youve planned
Means theres a difference between
What youre gonna say
In private
You still want my love
Were in this together
And what youre gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
So discreet
I never tried to meet
Your friends or interfere
I took a back seat between
And what you gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
Were in this together
And what youre gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
What you gonna say, ay
When you run back to your wife?
I guess its just the story of my life
What you gonna say?
So take your time
And tell me
Where did you learn
Oh, I may publicise
That theres a difference between
What youre gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
Were in this together
And what youre gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
Tell me what you gonna say
In private? , ooh, ooh, ooh
What you gonna say?
What you gonna do?
Baby, what you gonna say?

Cut a deal with NYC for brand new stadium
Buy land cheap; ask public funds, smart lads
Beware Kucinich getting hotter than radium

Education Celebration
(An 'Education Week' Rap)
Education, education;
There's nothing quite like education!
It gives you hope and lets you cope
And offers great remuneration.
Education, education;
The path to many a great vacation;
A fancy car and caviar;
A life of fun and relaxation.
Education, education;
Provides a firm and strong foundation
For better lives improved by drive,
By effort and by motivation.
Education, education;
Sing aloud in exultation!
And when you pass that final class
We'll shake your hand in admiration.
Education, education;
Requires a lot of perspiration.
You can bet - a lot of sweat,
And just a pinch of inspiration.
Education, education;
Let's all sing in jubilation!
For, those who strive and have the drive
May someday own a 'corporation'!
Formerly a public man needed a private secretary for a barrier between himself and the public. Nowadays he has a press secretary to keep him properly in the public eye.
