I about fell off my chair when I saw this. But he is 100% correct! And then:

***He said he had made clear to the governors that he was referring to the Washington-based union organization, not the teachers it represents.

Weaver dismissed Paige's distinction between the union and its members. "We are the teachers, there is no distinction," he said.***

So there you have it.

I think it would be good to write Sec. Paige and tell him he's right - the Emperor has no clothes!

I couldn't find an email address for Sec. Paige so I wrote and told President Bush I agree with the Sec. of Ed's assessment of teacher's unions.

And we're going to believe Craps Doyle, the guy who, when he had a chance to back up his campaign rhetoric regarding taxes ("It's not that we pay too little in taxes, it's that we spend too much") with some meat (a property tax freeze), he vetoed the tax freeze.

btw, here's the NEA's answer

Did he also mention that the sky is blue and water is wet?

I thought he probably meant it as a joke, didn't you? Hard to tell without hearing his tone of voice....
