Last Monday, a high school student in North Carolina engaged his social studies teacher in a heated debate about politics and the two leading presidential candidates. During the exchange, the teacher (an obvious Obama supporter) got very angry with the student and accused him of disrespecting the president. She even went so far as to tell the boy that he could be jailed for speaking ill of Obama.
Sarah Campbell of the Salisbury Post first reported on the story. She claims that the school district is not releasing the name of the teacher and that she is not responding to requests for public comment (although the two students identified her to the newspaper). According to Campbell’s story, the teacher will not be suspended or even face disciplinary action for what was heard on the recording. A statement from the school was released at the end of the week:
“The Rowan-Salisbury School System expects all students and employees to be respectful in the school environment and for all teachers to maintain their professionalism in the classroom. This incident should serve as an education for all teachers to stop and reflect on their interaction with students. Due to personnel and student confidentiality, we cannot discuss the matter publicly.” So, how bad was the exchange? It got fairly heated, with the teacher shouting at times. The kerfuffle started after one student asked a question about the teacher’s “fact of the day” that said Romney was a bully back in high school. A student asked:

Not necessarily so. Why say that?
Good God, that's a teacher?
She's like a share-cropping field hand.
Way to go, Noaf' Cai'lina. Wit yo' crazy ass.
>>>the father of the young boy said he intends to try and contact Rush Limbaugh, hope he is successful. Rush will bring this out and make the MSM aware.>>>
I’m praying that he does.
Publik skool is child abuse.
The teacher said hating on Bush was OK because he deserved it.
They should post the audio on YouTube. That outfit probably will delete it ASAP, but once it is on the Internet, someone will make a copy just ASAP and the thing will proliferate anyway.
“fact of the day” that said Romney was a bully back in high school
lol
naaa... this “teacher” isn’t biased at all!
ROFL
Thanks for trying to set me straight.
Another example of tenured lunacy. All taxpayer supported tenure should be abolished.
<<<What will it accomplish to “make the MSM aware”?<<<
It will make the conservative press, what’s left of it, aware and it will be reported by them. It will also be heard by the conservative radio shows. This is a dynamite story.
Don’t mention it.
To try and make you less useful, comrade.
Is it just me or have you noticed a lot of drinking and posting this afternoon on Free Republic. Well, I’ll pull off the road now and leave it to ya.
Do we know this ‘teacher’s’ name, yet? I sure would like to send an email to her superiors.
...comrade? What are you trying to say?
3 grandchildren in 3 states and the situations and stories they relate are all similar. No more Music, no more PE, No outdoor playtime after lunch. Strict lunchrooms. Before school and after school programs that are regimented and let parents avoid responsibility for both breakfast and dinner as well as lunch.
Now getting into the material taught would take me pages to
begin to outline!
This unprofessional woman sounds like a complete illiterate.Whoever hired her in the first place should be fired.She sounds more like a student in a GED class than a teacher. It is incredible the level of ignorance of teachers in some schools.
