“universal day care for 3-5 yr olds”
IE, forcing women who would choose to stay home with their children out into the work force in order to pay the taxes for this universal day care for women who want to choose to go into the workforce instead of staying home with their kids.
What is wrong with school vouchers?
Every breath in her body? Too bad.
Hillary is right it takes a village...to keep an idiot fully employed.
One more thing: Why not pass a resolution that would require teachers to pass students on to the next grade only when they earned the grades to do so?
Oh brother, could you just imagine the screaming and moaning over that one?
Most school teachers have no idea what they are paying for. I know I have 5 in my family and they are stupid on this subject. If you bring it up they will say but if I do not join the UNION I will have no say in what goes on in my little school. I try to explain it to them but like most people they will not take the time to find out what is really going on. Makes me ill.
The NEA is the enemy.
I didn't see much about effectively teaching correct information and principles to students in there.
I'm sure it was an oversight.
Go eat dirt, socialists.
fixed.
It takes a Socialist State that knows best for the citizens. "Pay your taxes and shut the h*ll up!"
The point being? How about one for Jimmy Hoffa too?
This will sure benefit the teachers in the union. Someone please litigate this improper use of union dues.
The NEA wants to continue the fraud known as public education and produce a population of functionally illiterate idiots incapable of making change, describing the chemical formula for water, naming either or both sides in the Civil War/WBTS/WONA or understanding basic economics. Instead, self-esteem and bumper-sticker slogans masquerading as an understanding of history and current events are the new educational currency.
In short, the NEA is producing the perfect race of Democrats and the DNC is duty bound to keep the NEA in high cotton.

No instead of giving minority parents vouchers to send their kids to the best schools, we want them to keep their kids in mediocre schools run by an army of overpaid unionized bureaucrats.
“The Department of Education’s $67.2 billion appropriation, by the way, is about 2.4 percent of the Federal Government’s roughly $2.8 trillion budget in fiscal year 2007.”
Thats 2.4 percent too much. I read some where that if we took the Department of Educations budget and divided it up among the total number of children in public schools today, it would amount to about 10 thousand dollars per student. I could easily keep my kids in private school with that kind of money.

Is one of their goals to address the issue of why hundreds of NEA members molest children and what should be done in the future to better screen applicants?
So this is the union that supposedly represents me. *sigh* Antonio Gramsci would be proud.
This one is absolutely another reason to homeschool. Got to keep kids away from predators and thugs like these.
