In South Florida, the teachers are striking tomorrow. They want Govenor Crist to veto a new bill that takes away their tenure. God forbid teachers have to work with the same standards as the rest of us who hold REAL jobs.

Every single teacher in this country should have their tenure taken away. I can't think of a single good reason why teachers should have tenures while normal working men, including all them miners that just died in the coalmines in Virgina, don't even come close to having tenures.

Pretty much.
Republican administrations across the clountry should take on these Teachers’ Unions, irrespective of how long they strike. If they go in strike, just CUT OFF their pay for as long as they stay on strike.
We really need a Margaret Tatcher here. I was in Britain when she took on the toughest unions in Britain, Arthur Scargill's National Union of Mineworkers in one of the nastiest, most violent strikes I have ever seen, and simply crushed them. Today, they are pale shadow of what they used to be before.
The point is, right now voters are in a mood for a really nasty, knuckle down fight with these arrogant, Marxist unions, who are bleeding us dry and contributing to the unsustainable massive deficits we are racking up.
