Hey Waukegan, take a look at the list of sponsors for the 'One Nation Working Together' rally this past saturday on the Capitol Mall. Take special note of the American Federation of Teachers sponsorship; their president, Randi Weingarten, was a speaker at this event, she was also a panelist on Bill Maher's show several months back. It's makes me wonder what lessons are being taught to our children when their teachers are standing arm in arm with the sort of radical organizations listed below. I really don't expect any replies to this post, even though I think we have a sizable number of wauktalk members who are teachers and AFT members. Maybe it's time to put your two cents in. By the way, I guess Glenn Beck isn't the liar that the radical left and their enablers in the mainstream media make him out to be. H-m-m-m
On a sidenote, I saw a sign at the rally that was produced by CPUSA. Anyone know who they are? Come on teachers, help me with this.
