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 Campbells 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 teachers fact of the day that said Romney was a bully back in high school. A student asked:

best I can get so far is NORTH ROWAN HIGH SCHOOL...SOCIAL STUDIES
Nope. Not her. Someone at North Rowan High School. I’ve asked for my posts to be deleted.
Yes, I got it wrong. I’ve asked for my posts to be deleted.
That makes you useful.
Just listen to her. She’s Amish.
Some folks on this thread are making sweeping statements and generalizing for effect.
Notice that it’s the Chicago police, again...
I could just see this twit teacher putting the back of her hand to her mouth in that cliched horror movie scream when she heard him bash Obama as if God almighty was being cursed. “Y-You dare to foul The Ones name? AIIIIIEEEEEEE!”
I went to a fairly decent public school. Unfortunately its a marxist indoctrination center these days.
Now that this has happened, the school will probably really clamp down on student cell phone usage.

I meant about the “comrade” part in your post 34. What did you mean by referring to me as “comrade”?
She’s revealing her true colors, and that of many Obama supporters, as oh, how they WISH people would be incarcerated for speaking ill of der leader.
My bet is that she’s attending a church with a Wright-like pastor. Lot’s of trouble brewing in those kinds of churches.
Inebriation, or goodly consumption, is making it’s presence known on FR this afternoon, on various threads. Thank goodness you’re not contributing to the fuzziness of thinking so evident today.
How was that relevant to this thread?
“The teacher said hating on Bush was OK because he deserved it.”
That is not exactly what she said...the conversation went like this...
Whenever Bush was president, everybody talked sh-t about him.
To which the teacher responded:
Because he was sh-tty.
It was an honest answer to your honest question on this particular thread. Pax.
I hadn’t asked you any question when you brought it up.
