Speaking of unions, the public schools here are closed today in order for the members of the teachers' union to work and vote for their candidate.

Are you kidding me? Where is this? Someone should sue the ass off the teachers union. There's plenty of time for them to vote after work like everyone else.

Fairfax County. They call it a teacher work day, but I think the real reason is obvious. People like Dave Dilegge and myself have to use vacation days when we take off to work the polls. I'm going in at 3:15.

I thought the schools were closed to facilitate voting. If the parking lot is full with student and teacher autos, we would have to park many blocks away to vote.
