An e-mail distributed by a Virginia teachers union encouraged members to bring politics into the classroom by wearing blue in support of Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama and simultaneously suggested that the union's voter registration efforts include those "you teach."

teach = indoctrinate...

Does that include ‘getting in their face’?

Bush, McLame and the rest of the RINO could of stopped this years ago and smashed so called diversity programs. This crap happens when RINOs look the other way and allow “their democrat friends” to edict the social policies.

The RINOs havent been willing to fight for conservatism so why in the hell should conservatives start fighting for them now.

McLame and his filthy RINO and Democrat friends. McLame had better go on the offense or this election is over.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Might be a good day to wear red.....

I read this this morning and started laughing. The union has so little presence in our school that I noticed NOTHING different. In fact, I see many more teachers wearing red on Friday.

That the NEA is for a democrat is new?

93% of NEA PAC money goes to the Jessie Jackson Party.

The NEA is the reason the meltdown happened.
