32 minutes to swallow that bait. You're slowing down Harry. Seriously, is
this the beginning of the end of teachers unions? Will Bam Bam come down on
the side of the kids or the unions? Tough call for him because kids can't
vote. But on the other hand he did say he would foster quality education.

Pointing out that herring is trolling is swallowing the bait? Did you go
to the Sarah Palin School of Language Misuse?

I didn't read whatever it was herring posted. I assumed that because it
was from herring, it was an attempt to troll.

My assumption here is if the post is from one of the right-wing scumbags
here and appears political, it is either racist, wrong, a lie, stupid,
or all of the above. "Right-wing scumbags" includes you, herring, jack,
Dan the Larry, Tosk the Mental Cripple, and a few others.

Naw. It's just a wee "Successful Troll" video, successful because
herring managed to post a URL which, considering his advanced state pf
deterioration, is remarkable.

Remember, if herring posts it, it is a troll.

BTW, did you catch the latest Andy Borowitz...he's a great fan of Ms.
Palin's:

Next week’s news: Sarah Palin edition
July 23rd, 2010

This week we’re peering a little further into the futu to 2012.

If the presidential election were held today, Sarah Palin would defeat
Barack Obama.

That’s according to a new poll published in Mayan Prophecy Weekly.

Here’s what you need to know about a Palin presidency. Her first
official act will be to cancel the agreement between nouns and verbs.
Next, she’ll replace the English language with Palinese: a language
known only to her. Even her husband Todd doesn’t speak it -– although,
to be fair, no one has ever heard him speak. We got a little taste of
this strange new language last week on her twitter page when she used
the word “refudiate.�

Now, when she uses a word like “refudiate,� she may seem incoherent. But
in 2012, we’re all going to be talking like this, so we better start
learning Palinese now. I figure if we learn three words a day, in two
years we might have a shot at understanding her State of the Union
address. So let’s begin our lesson in basic Palinese.

Word number one: “mitteracy.�

“Mitteracy� means the ability to read off one’s hand.

Word number two: “rignorance.�

“Rignorance� means advocating deep-water drilling in the aftermath of an
ecological disaster that killed thousands of pelicans.

And finally, “mooseacre.�

“Mooseacre� means a really fun day in the great outdoors.

That’s our lesson in Palinese for today. Now, you may be wondering:
Where does Sarah Palin find all these new words of hers? In a little
book called the fictionary.



Oh, wait...you right-wing ejaculates hate Jews, too. Sorry, Andy...they
probably won't like your column.

As long as it is done statistically and fairly, removing the politicis
out of it -- could be good and revolutionary. Teachers should be ranked.

But if not statistically and impartially as possible, justifies why a
union needs to dig in.

For example if a teacher with ghetto students is rated against say
against a teacher middle class without adjustments, this would be
wholely unfair. In the ghetto, children go home and worry about srvival
and education does not mater. In middle class the child goes ome and
does homework and parents talk up education futures...teh stock of
quality students may vary to demogrphics.

You could get the opposite effect. If you solely rate a teacher on most
improved, you might drain the middle class shool teachers of value to
the ghetto where the largest improvements can be had. This would not be
good as you trash a sucessful school for the needs of a failing one.
When both need to have the bars raised.

One thing not discussed in the article, are admin staff like principles
and superintendants also rated this way? Teaching is a team excercise,
as a teacher is often powerless to correct issues by themselves. Does
the principle back up the teacher when the teacher tells irate parents
to send their child to school fed and not high from their parents dope
smoke?

One could easily get a situation where the teacher wants to just kick
out the lowest performaers. Which might not be wholely bad, as often
they do disturb the class. But what do you do with slow learners that
disturb he class?

But at least they are looking at it. While I didn't grow up in DC, I
have noticed with the children we have had (since graduated) that math,
science and reading were not as good as it was when I grew up. And
getting a better educational system will go a long way to fixing many of
todays issues. Even makes for better voters if they can read and think
for themselves.

Depends, do the teachers unions pick up the ball and realize the product

For unions, could go either way.

if only the performance of companies was held to the same standard as
union members. in the US there is no penalty for killing your
employees, firing them if they're gay, or too old or if they want to
join a union. there is no penalty for destroying 10 million jobs.

The only reason unemployment was that low was because of the housing

uh...unemployment was at about 4.5%. virtually every industry had full

Unemployment is roughly what it was in 2001-2002 after the recession

bush inherited a balanced budget and ****ed it away with a war that
cost a trillion dollars

funny how you ignore that. no doubt because bush is white

and the dot com bubble? i was in the middle of it. it had nothing to

just like hedgefund managers

does homework and parents talk up education futures...teh stock of
quality students may vary to demogrphics.

You could get the opposite effect. If you solely rate a teacher on most
improved, you might drain the middle class shool teachers of value to
the ghetto where the largest improvements can be had. This would not be
good as you trash a sucessful school for the needs of a failing one.
When both need to have the bars raised.

One thing not discussed in the article, are admin staff like principles
and superintendants also rated this way? Teaching is a team excercise,
as a teacher is often powerless to correct issues by themselves. Does
the principle back up the teacher when the teacher tells irate parents
to send their child to school fed and not high from their parents dope
smoke?

One could easily get a situation where the teacher wants to just kick
out the lowest performaers. Which might not be wholely bad, as often
they do disturb the class. But what do you do with slow learners that
disturb he class?

But at least they are looking at it. While I didn't grow up in DC, I
have noticed with the children we have had (since graduated) that math,
science and reading were not as good as it was when I grew up. And
getting a better educational system will go a long way to fixing many of
todays issues. Even makes for better voters if they can read and think
for themselves.

I agree with what you say, and can't answer the questions about what else is
being done. I've not seen, in my experience, the unions do much of anything to
help the educational process for the kids. So, when I see the unions up in arms
over the firing of teachers, my first thoughts don't go for the unions. The
radio said the union was going to contest the firing for 80-some of the teachers
fired. That tells me that there must be no contest with the other 160 or so.

Too bad they weren't a bit more selective when you were substituting!

John Herring, stupid ass.

Guess what loser? Michelle Rhee is a Democrat.

Guess what loser? She's marrying a black man who's mayor of
Sacramento and a former NBA player, Kevin Johnson.

Frosts the space formerly occupied by your balls, eh?

Her political party doesn't upset me. From what I've seen she's a Democrat who
wants children educated. Nothing wrong with that.

What should, in your opinion, frost my balls?
