I want more appearances by NJEA officials in print and on TV. I want them to start calling out the governor's sycophants by name. I want to see them call out shows like Morning Joe when they give Christie a free, unchallenged platform to spew his nonsense. I want them to mobilize an army of teacher-spokespeople to get the word out that what Christie, Cerf, and the rest of their merry band are doing is going to kill the great New Jersey school system."<br />Jazzman, nail, head. couldn't day it better!!!Teacher Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17023044658046241555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-5977088964932276442012-03-09T20:03:20.984-08:002012-03-09T20:03:20.984-08:00And how much has Christie's 'super-pac'...And how much has Christie's 'super-pac' spent on their 'life is perfect in jersey with Chris CHristie?' campaign....<br /><br />If ever there was an argument for unions, our Governor embodies it....Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01003814941132010913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-82688146623139218392012-03-08T18:29:01.320-08:002012-03-08T18:29:01.320-08:00I would like to see a commercial of the Governor i...I would like to see a commercial of the Governor in his own words, or text, speaking about reform. start with the OPEN LETTER, CUT TO A CLIP OF HIM STATING HIS AFFECTION FOR TEACHERS, CUT AGAIN TO THE Renton video where the Gov basically tells students that if their teachers cared about them...

Seems the NJEA is busy putting out fires all over the place - maybe it's time for more of us to step up and offer man power. We are an intelligent, educated bunch - together, our voices should be able to match those of the "reformers." Christie & his followers count on the masses remaining silent.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04897756108644819863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-11349653727081148442012-03-08T08:47:50.073-08:002012-03-08T08:47:50.073-08:00We should target the advertisers of Education Nati...We should target the advertisers of Education Nation.

Then their buds and corporate cronies can hire teachers at their schools with abysmal wages and drain the profits for themselves.<br />I don't like playing the part of a conspiracy theorist but I am certainly not alone in this view!<br />walt sautter<br />http://teachersdontsuck.blogspot.comwalt sautterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02271157042842858883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-69826553795778289202012-03-08T06:01:55.217-08:002012-03-08T06:01:55.217-08:00Bravo Duke, bravo!Bravo Duke, bravo!Mother Crusaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05282456501033994143noreply@blogger.com
