Those who can't, teach.

"Those who can't, teach."

Ah, ya beat me to it!

"And those can... become Republicans!"

[fritzz]

Those in the teaching profession live off the lamb, spelled socialist government.

They need to be reminded constantly, "a socialist train cannot sustain itself without a capitalist engine".

[My2Cents]

Those who can't teach, teach P.E.

Have you ever considered the possibility that since many "intellectuals" do not believe in God that they set themselves up as the supreme authority. I suspect that the reason why most non-believers are liberal is conservatives most often believe in a supreme being.

"Those who can't, teach"

Careful there... I taught for 7 years until they finally starved me out. Thats a pretty broad brush you paint with.

That's a bit overused and not always true. My husband is very talented in his field and could have made a lot of money, but wished to teach college instead. His students are getting the very best and he puts up with all the crazy administrators and parents (the kids for the most part are ok). To this day, my wealthy brother I think looks down on us because my husband did not choose to use his talents to make money. He chose a higher calling. (Not that there's anything wrong with making money! He just teaches some very fortunate students how to do it!)

If they are liberals in their philosophy, how do we know if they really are good at teaching - unless they are idiot savants.

[Sooth2222]

Those who can't, teach.

And those who can't teach will publish and gain tenure.

I represent that remark. I could say, those who can't teach, post.

[Theodore R.]

The old saying, I think, is this:

Those who Can, Do,
Those who Can't, Teach,
Those who Can't Teach, Teach Teachers!
