Via Locutisprime at my place, a look into the mind of the NEA as filtered through the mouth of their outgoing general counsel in 2009, a look that should frame what is happening in Wisconsin and across the country as teacher unions continue making their demands. This should leave you with a bad taste in your mouth:
It’s not about the merit of their positions, it’s not about caring about children, it’s not about a vision of great schools for every child… it’s about power… it’s about paying dues… it’s about advancing the interests of education employees…
This should get wide play friends.
