Teachers tell protesting unions to shove their dues and rules

The Wisconsin school teachers protests and attempts to recall Gov. Walker resulted in not only losing the battle but instead helped to further new laws across the US that allow teachers to drop union membership. Now the National Education Association (NEA) and other teacher unions are seeing a decline of those willing fill the coffers of these organization.

As teachers began to look more critically at the NEA and their local, state and regional affiliates many were repelled by their unions being in bed with Democratic Party politicians. Many of them did not like the direction taken by those in control at the unions’ organizations.

Why is it that you post only excerpts of your own Examiner blog?

It seems that you are only here to milk this site for hits.

Have you any thoughts on this?

[Wurlitzer]

There are probably those who say the same of me when I constantly refer them to a FreeRepublic thread.

There seems to be a BDD here. Blog Deraignment Disorder.

Now what is really important, is the article accurate?

Gotta love this picture:

I'm sure Mizz Sacrifice is all of 24-years-old too.

Now what is really important, is the article accurate?

Is it only excerpted here to get hits?

Does the "author" ever interact or make comments?

Is the poster then just USING us to get some hits?

[Sgt_Schultze]

Is that a "teacher?"

How quickly would a child in that dude's class be sent to the office for similar behavior?

[MeshugeMikey]

youll love this one too then Id guess!

and a Frenchman replies:

[Wurlitzer]

I found the article quite informative hits or no hits. No skin off my nose if someone gets hits assuming the article is correct.

Attacking the messenger is Saul Alinsky 101

Gotta love this picture:

With a little more practice, she will be ululating. As it is, she's just bleating.

[humblegunner]

Ah, yes.. fear of Alinsky. No one ever thought of mockery or questioning sources until Alinsky invented them.

I reckon you must think pretty highly of him to attribute such basic things to him, huh?

[Usagi_yo]

I have thoughts on it. The OP is presenting news and opinion that points to a source for further elaboration.

Tasteful self promotion isn’t a sin and I don’t know why you would even think that there is something wrong with OP’s post. I pick up great links and great resources on FR, from both vanity and cut-’n-past posting.

Somebody wants to post an excerpt from their blog of an original thought or notion, then post a link for their blog for those further interested is fine in my book.

One thing’s for sure: she’ll never be ovulating....

[humblegunner]

I’m glad that you have an opinion about it, Yugi.. just like I do.

[MissTed]

Or hopefully reproducing. ;)

Nice Uvula.

[Katya]

who cares? Read the article, don’t read the article. Frankly, this is why the internet is so grand, and until JimR decides freepers can’t post blogged material its fine.

[humblegunner]

And so is my criticism of it fine.

Deal.

Wonder how the Twinkie ‘former’ workers feel..?
