(We've had students who wish to monopolize a discussion {or waste time} even though they haven't done the reading or noticed that their questions have already been asked and answered. At least these have youth as an excuse.) <br /><br />Trolls, add something besides ad hominem. With all due . . . you know.

Is your vitriol against charter schools because they are largely unpenetrated by the NJEA, so they generate no money toward NJEA coffers, and you are (I assume since you say you are a teacher) an NJEA member, and therefore don't personally benefit from the expansion of charter schools? Your headline expresses concern about your pension -- is personal financial motive behind some or most of your personal attacks and editorialing? Thanks, and I find your blog entertaining.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
