James O'Keefe takes on the New Jersey teacher's union...gotta love it!
You have to wonder what sort of parent entrusts their child to these buffoons. Teachers like this are not limited to New Jersey. We have hundreds like this here in Vermont and have had them for years. The parents who finally do catch on to what is really going on in public schools tend to opt out and homeschool because they know there is no way to battle this sort of arrogance and pathetic behavior. I did some student teaching and substitute teaching in the public schools years ago and you'd be amazed at what goes on in the teacher's lounge and behind the scenes. Not much has changed and our property taxes that support these losers continue to rise with no end in sight. Kudos to O'Keefe for yet another terrific expose!

New Jersey Governor Christie shines the light on NJEA
The sad part is that what the NJEA does is not limited to New Jersey schools. This goes on all over this country. Every state has a teacher's union that puts the screws to the taxpayers. Governor Christie though seems to be one of the few people who can articulate what is going on behind the scenes at union headquarters. You gotta love this guy for shining a light on these shenanigans.
When I first became aware of what the teacher's union in our state of Vermont was doing I tried to get people to pay attention. It was a losing battle so I simply went home and taught my children. I wasn't going to waste precious time trying to fix a broken system that I knew would take years to repair. This is why parents are foolish to think they can fix the system from within by putting their children in public school and then try to change the monopoly. They'll waste their time, their child's potential and the best years of their child's life.
Kudos to Governor Christie once again. A Triple-Dork Award to the NJEA, the VTEA and the NEA.
New Jersey Governor Christie sets the record straight on teacher's union
Christie tells us that New Jersey teachers get full family medical, dental and vision coverage without paying a dime into the system. As college graduates you'd think these teachers could figure out for themselves this is not sustainable. Appears the teacher's union is allowing the teachers to take the fall by not willing to compromise either. Why would anyone remain in a profession with a union that constantly puts the screws to them? As teachers they don't seem to be the brightest bulbs in the closet.
Kudos to Governor Christie and a major Dork Award to the New Jersey Teacher's Union.
