A lot of these so called liberal teachers who spend more time and effort on political campaigns than teaching should just be fired for lack of dedication and commitment to their profession and their students

You know you just raised a good point. If ministers are not allowed to speak publically about politics, then why are teachers allowed to do so? Both professions are positions of authority over children, as well as adults. Both are in a position to influence minds. Hummm, wonder if there's a lawsuit in there somewhere?

A new landmark Supreme Court ruling in the making?

"Coconutt2000 Vs. Board of Education"

Today the Supreme Court ruled it is illegal for teachers to engage in political speech inside a public classroom unless the course is specifically related to political science and then only if both sides of the political argument are given equal airing with the teacher showing preference for neither.
