Uh-Oh DU Teachers: The Freepers Are Plotting A War Against You
What a bunch of freaking cornballs, does EVERYTHING have to be a war?

I say let the Freeper teachers opt out of Union payments altogether, AND the Union benefits. IDIOTS!

1. Yes, for them everything is a war...
unless of course, it means going to war. You know, like a war in Iraq or something.

7. Well As I Undertand It
They can opt out of paying the money that goes to political lobbying, and still retain the same benefits, fuck that. I say throw em out, ingrates. My husband is a Union worker (motion picture screen cartoonists #839) and I thank God for the IATSE benefits. We're a very healthy bunch but just a broken leg or a short bout in the hospital can wipe out anybody with no ins. or crappy ins.

I would be working full time just for health benefits instead of staying home with the kids which is my preference, if not for the Union. I hope Arnie understands that not being able to keep his grubby paws out of our Unions, making them spend to defeat these idiot props and messing with abortion rights has made it so he couldn't get elected dog catcher in CA now.

5. I'm a school district administrator.
And I've sat across from the union for 10 years. But I HATE this end run sh*t around the unions. We have our own association that I pay my dues toward, and to think that I would have to give this explicit permission for every thing they do is assinine.

Good for you California! Lots of whooping and hollering here in Colorado!

8. This is pricless...
"Yes, in future threads, we will be discussing the alternatives for those who want to opt out."

May I suggest you quit your job at the comic book store, get a real one, move OUT of Mom's basement, and get a clue?

12. Education/Educators = Threat To Their Beloved Ignorance
The absolutely wallow in ignorance, the most preposterous of their ideas is that they are in some way superior to the majority that don't agree with any of this.

13. What do you get when you organize a bunch of freepers
A bunch of disorganized freepers with no leader.

Your doing a "heck of a job" Doug!



I'll bet most teachers know they can opt out if they want.

16. My freeper professor was going on today about privatizing
public education. The moran has a few kids in public schools, in an excellent public school system. He was also bragging today how he doesn't let his daughters date under any circumstances. I am so happy tomorrow is my last class with the moran, I can't take any more of his ignorance(he's a horrible teacher too).

26. I've seen that happen to several people brought up in fundie
households. They just totally lose it when they get to college with sex and drugs. Their maturity gets severally stunted with upbringings like that and can't handle the freedom.

25. They usually are horrible teachers
they are usually so self-involved that they have difficulty showing compassion...or for that matter...passion for their students. Since it's all about themselves, I can't imagine too many freeps would go into education.

29. I Agree, The Discourage Analytical Thinking
The good part is (I admit to having done this) you can fake an easy "A" with a freeper history prof by affecting his wacky and selective ideology in papers.

17. Check It Out: They're Going To Catch Union Child Molesters!
To: doug from upland

First step...

Crack the egg.

Start noting how many teachers are being caught in sexual relations with children. Note how well it worked against the Catholic Church. But in the case of education, you can read articles almost daily of another teacher, be male or female, being caught taking advantage of a minor.

Thats how you begin to crack that egg.

Use the truth.

=================================

Talk about a cracked egg, hey DOUG, Kettle's on line 2, holding for Pot!

Yeah OK, let's just take the number of child molesting teachers and devide that against the number all teachers, at .0000187%, that just takes care of all of them doesn't it? What a wacko....

I didn't know FR did in the Catholic Church, I thought they were doing themselves in all by themselves.

:eyes:

24. Hmmmmm...
But what if all the teachers caught in sexual situations with students were freepers...or better yet FUNDY freepers? Living out the writings of Scooter Libby. What is it with repukes and sex outside your species?:rofl:

27. Why don't they start with the private schools?
Don't they know that those religious schools always harbor sexual perverts? Geez...I thought these Freeps were related to perversion!

19. These people are seriously freaking clueless.
What's funny is that one of the posts said that Prop 75's failure is a threat to democracy.

Apparently these people dont know what a threat to democracy is. A threat to democracy would be something like, I dont know... um... government mandated religion ("Intelligent" design")!

21. THIS IS AN ALL-TIME FREEPER CLASSIC:
public employee unions give campaign contributions directly to those politicans with whom they negotiate their contracts and who vote for the contracts. This is a direct and inherent conflict of interest. It should be prohibited.

====================
Uh....and corporations just give money to the GOP to be nice, not wanting anything in return?

22. All they know is *war*. I won't go to that site, makes my head hurt
and I feel slimy afterward. Besides that, if I want to know FReepers' *intellect*, all I need do, is listen to Pinhead**. He is the original FReeper.
