Narcisse loves to rant about the size of the administration of the Des Moines Public Schools. One of his budget proposals posted on the Des Moines Register website was to "gut the bloated bureaucracy." So what is the only motion he made to change the budget adopted this past Tuesday? To add a bureaucrat. An internal auditor that would have no contact to students and add nothing to their education. That is his idea of gutting.
He also says in the same post that the district has so many lawyers it could start its own law firm. He asks rhetorically, "Do we really need so many lawyers?" So, how many lawyers does the district employ? One. And this is one fewer than Narcisse thought the district needed when he once recommended that a second lawyer be hired to advise the board.
Does this guy ever think about what he says? Does he compare notes with himself? Or does he just say what he thinks his constituency wants to hear?
