Doesn't it seem strange that most of those who are supposed to be preparing our children to enter the work force have never held a job outside the union public school system.

Why would teachers need a union to begin with.

Students and Parents must Stand up for their rights to be taught by non Union teachers and their extreme ideologies.

This is a fundamental right of americans..to have their children taught by teachers they deem acceptable ....to have their children taught by teachers who dont adhere to extremist unionist ideology and membership...it is every americans right to have free choice in the education of their children and not be forced to have their children indoctrinated by Unionist leftist wich have so heavily infiltrated our public school systems across the nation

Newt or whoever posted this is an idiot...interview 3 or 4 faculty and claim that their opinions are representative of how most teachers view unions..come on! Let's hear how the administration can grab faculty by the &*$(# and steamroller them on pay, benefits for families, work conditions, etc. How narrow-minded can you get?

UNION TEACHERS ARE DANGEROUS as having authority over our children they use the class room as a pulpit to indoctrinate children into liberal ideologies and conversely scorn those children wich hold consrvative ideologies. This has been documaented..even last election Union Teachers used the class room to promote Obama and Liberalism.

This is dispicable and dangerous.....the Teachers Unions have converted our tax dollars into a funding machine for Democrats, liberal Activism,and political action committee activities.

18-Apr - Democrats,Unions Team Up To Destroy School Choice


Democrats,Unions Team Up To Destroy School Choice



In typical Orwellian Fashion Democrats and Unions have teamed up to destroy School Choice in our Nation.These decisions by the democrats in Washington resulted in children who attended the same private school as the Obama's children to now be forced to return to the educational sewers called our public schools.These children now must return to derilict public schools staffed with Union teachers to recieve the inferior educations forced upon them by the Democrats, their Union backers, and cronys.This is the apex of Elitism and Injustice.

The Education Unions and Democrats have only one concern and it is not education.They have converted our public schools into Union gravy-Trains for pensions,high pay,and patronage all at Tax Payer Expense.Conveniently blamed on parents for the failure of our public schools while taking absolutely no responsibility upon themselves for the sorry state of our public schools.

Our nation now lags dramaticly behind other nations in science,math,and language. The economic and national security implications of the sorry educational product these union teachers and democrats have produced over these last three or four decades is astonishing.Also, these liberal Union teachers lose no opportunity to use our public schools for their far left wing, progressive, liberal agendas,essentially converting our public schools into left wing indoctrination and propaganda organs thereby trying to produce liberal voters for future political purpose.That is to say the democrats and unions have converted our public schools into political recruitment instruments.

Only in a distorted left wing liberal mind is there synchrony of thought to advocate for choice and funding of abortion and killing babies while at the same time doing everything in their power to deny the children of the united states any choice of where they attend school. They advocate that one should have the choice to kill a baby with the same breath they advocate NO CHOICE for children and parents to pick high grade educational institutionsof their own choice..

following is an excellent article on the unholy alliance of unions and democrats and their war against free School Choice in our nation by the Wall Street Journal

BOYCOTT ALL UNION GOODS SERVICES AND PRODUCTS.FIGHT AGAINST THE UNIONS AND DEMOCRATS UNHOLY ALLIANCE AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.

27-Mar - DEFEAT LEFTIST NOW


TACTICAL ESSENTIALS TO DEFUND AND DEFEAT LEFTISTS

BOYCOTT AND DIVESTMENT

In combating leftist it is usefull to identify their source of funding.Funding is the prime mover of political movements.The Number one financeer of Leftists are Unions.

BOYCOTT ALL UNION GOODS,SERVICES,PRODUCTS

In The last election Labor Unions provided ONE BILLION DOLLARS in funding and electionerring to elect Democrats.(1)This is the largest provision of funds to democrats.It must be addressed if the political right has any hope of defeating left wingers.

Boycott is the single most effective and immediate way to address this left wing funding spigot.

Fortunately as a result of the current recession unprecedented levels of union jobs have been lost.This is the silver lining to the current recession.It also presents an instrumental opportunity to hit the left wing union funding machine.Scince so many jobs have been lost it is now a prime opportunity to secure and increase those losses through BOYCOTT.

From big ticket items like cars to little convenience items like soda at the convenience store let these union made and transported items rot on the shelves till hell freezes over.

There are many attractive alternatives.The non union cars made in the USA are a fine alternative.It allows the purchase of finely crafted automobiles and trucks that are not Union Made.Boycotting Union made automobiles hits many unions.The UAW, Glass workers, Rubber workers etc.
The Used automobile is another attractive alternative economical and can put union workers out of a job just as effectively as a non union made car.

TARGET UNION EFFORTS:

Unions post their boycott efforts on line. for example Unions are now calling for the boycott of some Adams Mark Hotels.Patronize these hotels and any other thing the unions advocate boycotting.This is hyper effective.Unions would not be boycotting these organizations if they were doing well against their boycott targets.Coming to the aid,promoting,and patronizing union boycott targets turns the heat up on those struggling unions conducting the boycott.

PATRONIZE AND PROMOTE ALL NON UNION BUISNESS:

Identify non union buisness and patronize them exclusively.For Example Wal-Mart and Aldi's grocery are finely managed corporations wich bring exceptional value to its customer.Patronizing such buisness saves you money and brings you high value for your dollars spent.It also offers the terribly exciting prospect of knowing that that next dollar spent might be that dollar spent that throws a union worker out of a job.

DIVESTMENT:

DIVESTMENT from all left wing aspects of society and buisness.This is a stake in the heart of leftist localities.For example.

RELOCATE,RELOCATE,RELOCATE:

Homeowners should leave democrat districts.

EXAMPLE:

I live in a democrat district.92% of the people in my district vote democrat.The taxes are absurd and the schools are failing.The local Unionized school district lost its state accreditation.By moving to a republican district I will save over 200 dollars a month in property taxes on a home of equall value and will no longer be supporting a failing district.This is very substantial. Over ten years it amounts to over 24 thousand dollars in savings.If at all possible conservatives should abandon and move out of democrat political districts and remove themselves to solidly republican districts.

Buisness owners should also move out of democrat districts. Business will also find much better enviorments by leaving democrat districts.
Buisness will find great savings by leaving democrat disticts and they will have the benifit of a better workforce.It can not be overstated the savings buisness can achieve by abandoning democrat political districts for republican territory. Foreign automakers have done well with this strategy. Union free,high productivity rural locals have greatly increased their competitive advantage against detroit.The writing is on the wall....DIVEST NOW.


SYNERGY:

Through these two tools BOYCOTT and DIVESTMENT conservatives can have an incredible impact on defunding and deligitimizing leftist.These econimic realities that the conservatives can impose can not only defund leftist activities but force those disticts to economically implode upon the weight of their own policy.This will bring great pressure upon democrats by their own disatisfied democrat constituents.In no uncertain terms the only good leftist is a jobless leftist.By defunding left wing districts and organizations such as unions combined with divestiture from those democrat districts conservatives can weaken leftist and democrat political districts while at the same time greatly empowering conservatives and republican political districts in one fell swoop. This must be a long term effort extending into perpetuity.In no uncertain terms this hits leftist where it counts.In their economic wallet.

In Closing please take my words to heart.These efforts are worth the taking.Have no doubt the impact conservative grass roots movements can have.The impact can be enormous.The impact is made irrespective of wich political party is in power.If you attend the up coming Tea Parties please spread the word.It is essential that the conservative boycott/divestment movement take hold nation wide.From every municipality,county,and state, Conservatives must undertake this movement or face a dismal future as visioned by Obama and his far left wing extremists.The very freedom of our nation is at stake.PASS THE WORD.....BOYCOTT AND DIVEST
