Maybe O'Reilly will get hold of this story and expose those responsible...he'd get it out nationally for sure...so would Hannity...hope they're lurking.

>> I will personally kick the ass of any teacher I hear saying anything negative to the children of our servicemembers. <<

Roger that. I REALLY HOPE this is not as bad as this. VERY DISTURBING!!!

Will be looking inside the Maine Teachers Association Monday for evidence of a coordinated effort. There may be a bulletin board coordinator at work here. I have contacts in union leadership that I am working. The distances between reports suggests some level of central coordination.

Not sure how GODS AND GENERALS turns out on film, as I'm still waiting for Lord of the Rings (The Two Towers) to show up. But it was a GREAT book!

And it's a GREAT film, too! (We saw it yesterday). Whenever it shows up, see it!

Looks like they could use a Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain up there in Maine about now, doesn't it?

So familiar.... Two facets in total conflict: My aunt recently died at age 103, a self proclaimed patriotic American. She was bright, brilliant, vibrant, active to the day she died, an unshakable Democrat. We had two disputes. First when I was a dumb college student, I was at the Democratic Convention in LA when they nominated a John Kennedy. I came to her telling her I met this Kennedy guy. She was furious because he was Catholic.

Later, I married a Polish Catholic and even became a Republican. She had no more communications with me for 33 years. No room for reconciliation. No room for reason.

has received about 30 complaints from children of deployed soldiers concerning Principals, Teachers and Guidance Counselors reportedly demeaning the role of their deployed parent. Some children involved are 7 to 9 years of age.

Principals, Teachers and Guidance Counselors???

There best be an investigation on this and if this is true .. FIRE THEM!!!!

Just sent the link to the morning talk show guys at WVOM and suggested they contact the Maine Army National Guard for an on-air interview.

School vouchers solves this problem.

What you are looking for is the NEA (leftist national teachers' union) affilliate, Maine Education Association.

web site: www.maine.nea.org/

Nothing obvious on foriegn policy,
but lots about pay and union contracts:

"Fair compensation with a secure retirement, certification and authorization, working conditions, and employee rights are not guarantees. They are benefits earned not from the work of your chief negotiator, but rather through the collective strength of your local association focused through your chief negotiator. "

Bump. Forwarded to my email list.
