I think we should demand these cruel teachers and administrators be fired. It is unconscionable what they've done to these children on our tax dollars.

I remember my teachers as people I could look up to and trust when I was a kid. Is this the best a damned Utopian can do?
To me this proves that liberals have the morals of a snake, or really less than that, because when a snake bites you, it's nothing personal.
Not so with a drooling idiot liberal. They intend to hurt you and will even attack children. What scumbags.

Just another example of why we need education vouchers for ALL children in ALL areas of the country. I wish George W. Bush would climb on board this concept, instead of his liberal tax-and-spend approach that allows vouchers only for the poorest of the poor who attend schools that are deemed "failing" by the federal government.

It's common sense that children will learn more and perform better in a comfortable environment, instead of a hostile one. I wonder if the RINO Bangor Sisters, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, will muster enough courage to speak out against this outrageous scandal within their state's teaching profession.

I don't know what school this occured at, but I bet it was the William S. Cohen School for Wayward girls.

[Tax Government]

Members of the Maine National Guard, called up to prepare for an attack on Iraq, have asserted that their children are being harassed at school by teachers who oppose the war.

I'd call those teachers "contemptible piece-o-crapts." Someone, we, perhaps, should start a nationwide database of such people. We have a right to do this.

Teachers urged to be sensitive to military kids

AUGUSTA (AP) ? The state's education commissioner on Tuesday urged all school employees, regardless of their views about a possible war with Iraq, to be sensitive to the emotions of students in military families. J. Duke Albanese sent a letter to every superintendent and principal in Maine after receiving reports that some school employees have been sharing anti-war sentiments with students, the Morning Sentinel of Waterville reported. In the letter, Albanese urged educators and other school employees to create supportive climates that are sensitive to all children. ?I am asking you to remind school personnel that these are difficult times for our nation and that the families of military personnel need our sensitivity,? the commissioner wrote. The education department has received reports of children showing stress and anxiety because of their perceptions that fellow students or school employees have been insensitive to their beliefs or to the potential dangers of war, the commissioner wrote. These situations have strained certain military families' feelings toward their children's schools, he wrote. Maj. Peter J. Rogers, spokesman for the Maine National Guard, said complaints have been fielded at assistance centers for families of National Guard members in Augusta, Bangor, Calais, Caribou and Portland. ?Children are coming home from school very upset at things that are being said,? he said. ?They're suffering the pain of losing somebody already, and it's causing a trauma at this point.? Albanese and Maj. Gen. Joseph E. Tinkham II, the state's top military official, have discussed the situation, Rogers added. ?The advisory is to let superintendents know this is unacceptable behavior,? he said.

Get your kids out of these LIBERAL hell-holes.

[Joe Brower]

Nice to see that the national media has finally picked up on this sordid affair.

These "teachers' are the lowest form of cowardly scum. If this happened to my kids, there would be holy bloody hell to pay. I would see to it personally.

[Bottom_Gun]

Oh boy, stories like this make me feel so good, seeing that My wife just recieved orders to Brunswick NAB, for shore duty. All I can say is that if my son or daughter comes home with something like this happening, that teacher is sure going to have not to fondle memories of my children's parents *L*

"What we're hearing is that some of the educators are talking about the possible war in Iraq being unethical and that those who would fight it are unethical

It's very unethical for teachers to blame 7 year olds for problems in the world and lay a nasty guilt trip on them because their parents are patriots and service personnel. These so called "teachers" should be exposed by name AFTER being terminated from their teaching positions. That way, when they show up at another school, parents will know.

[Eastbound]

Echoing all the sentiments here. Bump! BTTT!!!!!!
