Now you have brainwashed the public for your own selfish purposes while pretending to care about the poor and middle class child, while conducting a massive social experiment just because you can. Who needs a president? We have Bill, Rupert and Eli.

He was cut off by the government,mid sentence. No doubt he relishes the thought of doing that here at home to silence his critics. HIS WIFE SURE WOULD LIKE TO DO THAT!
Dan Malloy. Traveling the world for a better Connecticut!

The problem broached in your first two sentences may possibly due to certain a “revolving door” interchangeability of career positions, or the perception and prospect of them, between some CEA bureaucrats, the CT State Department of Education, professional development providers like EastConn, and university Professional Education professors. And similiarly for the rest of the USA.
And right now some of these folks are surely terrified and cowed by the system of Kommissars being installed. Events in Chicago may be a watershed, and force people to choose sides. But my comments are probably obvious to Jon’s well-informed posters here.

They need to withhold their endorsement for both parties because whether they recognize it not teachers have been thrown under the bus. The only thing these jerks in Washington can agree on is that teachers are to blame for all the nation’s ills. The big question is where will America be? Better off or in the trashcan?
