Chicago teachers unions out of touch as usual

Rahm wants to pay the teachers to teach, wants to get the kids in class longer, wants to get rid of bad teachers. He isn't exactly a rightwing fanatic that you make everyone who is tired of the union bullshit out to be. The union is too worried about leverage and self-interest to see that they are exposing themselves.

Do you ever make actual points that are based upon anything more solid than, "because that's what I think?"

And no, I haven't made "everyone" who is anti-union to be right wing fanatic. I've even pointed out where I'm "anti-union". That you can't catch that sort of nuance, and you paint all those with opinions you don't like with broad-based strokes, no matter if it is true or not, isn't my fault.

Yes, there was a public plan put forth at the 2010 RGA meeting, that GOP govs are to try and overthow unions as part of the GOP agenda. You don't believe it, shows simply your lack of awareness of your own party and their current action items. It's not exactly a secret or some invented "plot".

What's even more hilarious is how some of you guys paint anyone who doesn't agree with your opinions with your own imagined suppositions and black-and-white prejudices about what they think. You do it, Dell does it.
