Once infamously calling the NEA a "terrorist" organization, his contempt for teacher unions was unconcealed. But I would rather have a secretary of education who calls me a terrorist for belonging to a union than an Arne Duncan who says he wants to "work with me" and then does the same things as a Rod Paige. At least Paige was honest.Vincent Wojsnisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-39307410277257435172010-08-31T21:39:57.267-04:002010-08-31T21:39:57.267-04:00Great thoughts as always brother- .

They think they can run against Speaker Boehner the way Clinton ran against Speaker Gingrich in 1996 and win.<br /><br />I think YOU are right, Norm. A Republican House will tie this WH up in knots with investigations.<br /><br />But you know what?<br /><br />Good.<br /><br />It's their OWN fault.<br /><br />They could have governed with guts, with vision, with progressive values, held Wall Street accountable, put people back to work by using the stimulus to build, rebuild or refurbish infrastructure, etc.<br /><br />But they didin't.<br /><br />Instead they continued the Bush bailout policies even as they SAID nasty things about the Wall Streeters.<br /><br />So they got the worst of BOTH worlds. Progressives like myself despise them for their corporate whoredom while the corporate whores are mad that President Obama said mean things about them even as he bailed them out, held not ONE of them accountable for the economic mess of ;08 and signed a financial reform bill that does NOTHING to reform the financial system.<br /><br />Terrible strategy. But they think it's a winner and yes, they think the threat of President Palin will scare disenchanted progressives to vote for Obama in 2012. <br /><br />But not me. And I will continue to list the reasons why NO LIBERAL should vote for this supposedly liberal at my blog every day I can.reality-based educatorhttp://perdidostreetschool.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-36642864059439445712010-08-30T20:16:12.326-04:002010-08-30T20:16:12.326-04:00There were no political parties or candidates that...There were no political parties or candidates that spoke up for Rubber Room detainees. We were and are considered guilty by reason of being accused. However, politicians did speak against "paying teachers for doing nothing", because that was politically safe. I had hoped it would make a difference if the Democrats regained power, but it didn't. I will not vote for Obama or Hillary in the next presidential election. I would vote for Kucinich, but he won't make it beyond the primaries. Therefore, I'm looking for a party other than the Democrats or the Republicans.Moriah Untamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08256637291823077134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-60571706333471779172010-08-30T17:55:27.797-04:002010-08-30T17:55:27.797-04:00I really hope Hillary does challenge him in a prim...I really hope Hillary does challenge him in a primary.
