Democratic State Rep. Tamara Meyer Le has a message for New Hampshire’s private and religious schools: “F*** you.” Literally.
In an October 20th Facebook post, the Seacoast progressive and member of the House Education Committee used the profanity in a diatribe on her public FB page regarding her 8th-grade daughter’s friends applying to private high schools.
“And then it happened. The Sunday afternoon my 8th grade daughter who is getting A-/B+s in 8th grade had to learn – while her friends were applying to private high schools – we would not be,” Le wrote.
“Private and religious schools do not have anti-discrimination policies that protect students with disabilities.”
“F*** private and religious schools,” Le concluded. Several of her fellow House Democrats ‘liked’ her comment, including Reps. Casey Conley and Heidi Hamer.
Le did not respond to multiple requests from NHJournal for comment. However, at least one person responded to her post by objecting to Le’s anti-private and anti-religious school sentiment.
“I take offense to your [commen]. It’s foul and also not that black and white! I believe every parent needs to do what is best for each of their children and not judge parents that do,” the commenter said.
“I hear you, “Le replied, “but it is very black and white"..
There are 329 private schools in New Hampshire according to Private School Review, serving close to 29,000 students.
This represents around 12 percent of all K-12 students in the state. Is a Democrat on the House Education Committee saying “F— you” to all of them?
“Sounds like it to me,” House GOP leader Dick Hinch told NHJournal. After seeing Rep. Le’s Facebook post Hinch released a statement calling for her to “apologize to every private and religious school throughout the state,” and demanding that she be removed from the Education Committee.
“Given this exhibition of online rage, I do not believe that Rep. Le can provide any fair or objective review of policies pertaining to private and religious schools as a member of the Education Committee,” Hinch said. “House Speaker Shurtleff must remove her from the House Education Committee, and he should, in the strongest terms, condemn this type of behavior from her.”
House Education Committee chairman Rep. Mel Myler (D-Contoocook) distanced his committee from Le’s controversial comments. “Rep. Le speaks for herself and not that of the House Education Committee. Positions of the committee are taken after full debate on an issue.”
“Rep. Le’s comments are disgusting and indefensible, but they are not surprising,” NHGOP chairman Steve Stepanek told NHJournal.
“For her to make such a statement on her official page shows just how out-of-touch and divisive Democrats in the legislature are. Someone with no respect for religious and private education and for New Hampshire’s various faith communities has no place on the House Education Committee.”
Le is an outspoken progressive who has endorsed Elizabeth Warren for president, despite the fact that Warren sent her own son to private school.
Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”
“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”
“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”
“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”
“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”
Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff
Wow. Can you believe that? Reprehensible.
Hope I posted this correctly.
I’m not going to be around for replies tonight, so talk amongst yourselves if you’re inclined. Goodnight Freepers.
“Private and religious schools do not have anti-discrimination policies that protect students with disabilities.”
Abortion targets children with disabilities and punishes them with death.
You are over the target my friend!
The Democrats are giving up on feigning normality.
And are reveing, indeed reveling, in exposing their vile natures.
Seems like the Rats nationwide have been demon-possessed since Trump was elected.
They have never been fouler, devious, lying, murderous, hateful, proud, treasonous and deviant in my lifetime.
Did she write “F***” , or did she write the real deal?
NH ping
Googled this woman to learn more about her. This gal would do well to get herself and her family on diets. Yikes.
Couldn’t resist. Wow. When she sits around the House if Represe statices she sits AROUND the House!
Funny how the libsoc’s don’t cry hate speech at actual hateful speech. They are too busy uttering the hateful speech.
“There are 329 private schools in New Hampshire according to Private School Review, serving close to 29,000 students.”
Can New Hampshire’s public school add 29 THOUSAND students and keep the standard of teaching they have now?
NH has been invaded by the vile socialists/Marxists from MA. This has been going on for quite some time.
They flee the high taxes and insane cost of living their policies have wrought and then, in typical liberal fashion, bring their looney leftist beliefs with them and pollute their new home state never putting two and two together.
Tamara has buttloads of class!
Private and religious schools produced the most literate and knowledgeable citizens in this country for the history of this country. And did it soley on their own for a good 200 some years before gubmint socialist indoctrination centers aimed at controlling and dumbing down the population.
