>> Which is a german term for “A whale’s vagina”.
I was with you up to here, but “whale’s vagina” is just too big of a stretch. ;-)
Good. I wish more school districts would start to play hard ball with these teacher unions.
Our school distract pulled a strike. They totally got away with it. They’re so overpaid here in NYS, it’s pathetic.
“Let’s create the most chaos and the highest level of anxiety in a district where teachers are already under unbelievable stress. Now I know how the United States State Department felt on Dec. 7 , 1941.” That was the day the Japanese government bombed Pearl Harbor.”
You know, just that statement makes me hate this guy.
I know what you mean. They've been at the government teat so long they don't know how out of touch and ridiculous they are.
I think your analysis is right on. I didn't see anything amounting to modification of union rights. It's just a temporary budget maneuver. Providence is a backwater of leftist union corruption and cronyism. I doubt any of this has to do with taxpayers getting a clue.
Over 2,400 people died in Pearl Harbor, but this socialist worm won't identify with the likes of them. Oh, no. Maybe he thinks Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State back then.
You can't fight people like this with words. They'll win every time because what they say is so insane that there's no rational response. Eventually America will realize this, then the fun will really start.
So true. The teachers union might even come out with a better deal than they have now. It's to be expected in Rhode Island.
This is my fear for Wisconsin. The Governor will fire some teachers and the Court will reinstate them WITH back pay.
Oh please. This Socialist scum doesn't have a CLUE what real war and combat entail.
Having to cough up a few more bucks for your own health insurance isn't the same as Pearl Harbor!
Then I would dare the judge to enforce his/her decision.
Let's be clear: whomever backs down in this crisis loses everything.
"Seven years of college down the drain! Might as well join the f***ing Peace Corps!"
Sloppy clown-like comedians pay a higher share of their health care and retirement.
It’s always a good day in America when Socialists are crying.
My, MY, there is a downside to collective bargaining - collective firing!
No it was the Tea Party
I’m Ron Burgundy?
I remember when people felt sympathy for teachers when I was a kid because their wages weren't all that good.
I agree that teaching is a tough job (I was a teacher for a few years).
But when teachers are making 1 1/2 or double what the average citizen that is paying taxes to pay them.....it's hard to muster up sympathy for them. Especially when they ask union thugs to help out.
The japanese people voted for the emperor?
Wow!! Overblown Hyperbole AND patronizing editorialism, in the same paragraph!
