    The IMPORTANT part is that he goes back and CHECKS that contract to see if they did adjust it AFTER it was signed and then sent to WASHINGTON to be filed and that legit copy.

    THE UNION edited the contract AFTER it was signed and then filed that one, NOT THE ONE that Chritie signed. That should be a felony.

    Public education is no longer about reading, ‘riting ’n ‘rithmetic it’s now about

    The only solution is to BAN unions in PUBLIC sector jobs. BUT, it must be done on the state level where schools are concerned.

    Put Grades 1-12 on TV. ch1 grade 1, ch2 grade 2…etc and see how quick the teachers react to the fact that the state government can set some standards for education and eliminate over-paid teachers.

    The teacher’s union is one reason why I left teaching. I hated working my butt off, while teachers in the building were not doing their job and hurting our children. The teacher’s union and the quality of education that is provided in our public schools is the reason why I will home school my children.

      My wife and I made a commitment 9 years ago to homeschool both of our children due to the deterioration of our public school systems. It hasn’t been easy, but it’s been rewarding. We’ve had to manage on my income, but the rewards are more than monetary. You won’t regret it.

      Isn’t amazing how the union works, when the union worker go on strike, they get minimum wage, but the bosses still receive their FULL payment, whether it is treachers union, carpenters, electtrical, pipe fitters, etc.. the “working” union employee just receive the bare minimum, while the so called “bosses” have their full pay, that is why I left the union 37 yrs. ago.

      Are you free or are you not? After fighting the communists from Berlin to Vietnam, Korea to Afghanistan, and all around the world spending our blood our youth and our treasure for another people, how is it we have allowed Communism in the ranks of the Democrats. Are the Democrats so desperate for power they would associate with traitors, indeed welcome them with open arms? Forming organizations with tax payer money with the sole purpose of overthrowing the constitution forcing us to pay for our own destruction? We have got to get rid of this lose money! It’s time to turn our government back into the institution it was meant to be, not some weird kind of ATM machine. If you are a communist you are by definition ineligible to take any oath of office because no communist can say the oath with a straight face knowing that ultimately because of your beliefs, you wish the destruction of the constitution and our American way of life.

      The phrase itself does not appear in the U.S. Constitution, although the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” EXECT WORDING. keeping government out of religion, not visa versa.

      It has nothing about having religion involved in government. IN FACT, the founders relied on the people being religious in order to govern themselves (giving them morals) There is not and has never been any law saying that religion cannot or should not have anything to do with government. On the contrary it was the religion that was the highest law of the land governing the individual, the government was for national matters of defense and general welfare (not the “welfare checks” for poor folks as we associate that statement today)

      Christie is our greatest political failure and perhaps the greatest danger we face in terms of our educational goals of dumbing down kids so we can get total obedience when we take over. We underestimated the courage of Christee. He will be retired soon.

      All stops have been pulled out to discredit him and undermine him. In case you didn’t notice, the first video was a FOX interveiwer who did a great hit on the young man.

      You know I‘ve had many people here call me names and say I’m just a plant.. some teenager playing a game. I’ve told you that we have infiltrated even FOX news. This interview and the NY Times piece on Glenn Beck where it mentions backbiting by people at FOX about Glenn is proof positive that we will win.

      I’ve been canvasing a lot of “patriotic” BLOGS like this. You folks are NO DANGER to us. You rant and rave among yourselves but won’t sacrifice time and money to get rid of us.

      BTW, I’m paid big bucks. I think I can find a good paying job for you.

      It should be a crime to squander public funds in this way. They should fire the entire leadership group and do away with tenure. Then make them go through a rigorous annual performance review process like anyone with a REAL JOB.

      Chris Christie is a rock star!

      Tenure allows communists/socialists/liberals/progressives to corrupt our public school and secondary education systems, because it allows them to spread lies with impunity. Any teacher or professor who promotes communist, or socialist. ideology in America should automatically be fired, period. These people should be treated like pedophiles and kept as far away from American children as possible.
