The talks began around 10 a.m.

The father who can afford to stay home with his boys should begin homeschooling them, to heck with the school system it is for the Teachers Unions anyway, not for the betterment of teaching skill or aptitude of the student.
Those teachers make more money than most of the people who are paying them.
Meager salaries went out the window 40 years ago.

IS it all theater so that O can come into his beloved Chicago a set things aright?
Congrats, Chicago.
Ye reap what ye sow.
For you, I have no sympathy.
Yes, Rahmbo and Obamugabe want to manufacture a crisis and have an October surprise to quell the violence.
The rejected a 16% pay raise.
F the Unions.
Offer the teachers an immediate 20% pay hike if they get rid of the union.
Take him out to watch what happens to a city that is completely dominated by public union supporting Democrats. These parents will bitch and moan about this but will then show up in November and vote for the Dems that set up the system that allows this to happen.
Who gonna feed da chi’rens now ?

My grandson in Corvalls, OR started kindergarten today. HALF the day Spanish ONLY is spoken! This is outrageous. He should be learning math and reading and half of his time is wasted. I’m going there to visit next week and will be going to his class to observe.
We keep moving further and further out of the reach of the liberal rot that has infected Minneapolis, Saint Paul and the inner ring suburbs.
We bought our house not based on the house, but where it was first. One of the best school districts in the state, I even sat in on several classes my kids would be in. I arrived unexpected so they did not have time to change things to look good for me.
The fact that the house was almost completely updated last year and on a lake is just icing on the cake.
I just drove it this morning. 60 minutes to downtown Minneapolis. Gas just hit 3.89 a gallon. It’s worth it to have my kids in a good school although I am considering a smaller van for a few extra MPG.
My suggestion to those in Chicago.. GTFO!
HEADLINE !
Heartless Chicago Teachers Union does not care if chi’rens
Go without free school lunch .
That's Rush Limbaugh theory, he thinks that Rahm got together with the heads of the teachers unions and cooked this thing up. The strike will go on for a week or so with no resolution, then Obama will swoop in and resolve it in a day with both sides praising his "leadership". Then we will be treated to pictures of smiling teachers and little kids headed back to school all singing the praises of Obama.
Who gonna feed da chi’rens now ?
Don’t worry. I heard on the news the schools are open for breakfast and lunch.
(no.. really that is exactly what I heard!)
