This is a strike of choice.

That's what I heard Rahm say yesterday on the Ed Show as he casually chugged from a water bottle. He's so cool and above it all.

Then Ed's guest, a striking teacher, came on and said he agreed with Rahm. It is a strike of choice. Rahm's choice.

Take that, Rahm. Consider yourself schooled.

1. This is a strike of choice

it was Rahm and Jean-Claude's choice to not care about the future of our children and to act like dictators.

2. You need to do a more DECLARATIVE POST for folks to read these days..

Retitle:

THIS IS A FUCKING STRIKE OF CHOICE....TEACHERS FORCED TO SPREAD LEGS AND TAKE IT!!!!

Then folks will notice.

(I hope you understand this isn't my title of choice...but, just the way things go around here on this site these days)

5. Amen, brothers and sisters.

I remember facing parents and children in our gut-wrenching 19-day strike in 1976. It was a small, one-district suburb and pretty much everyone knew everyone. I even voted against it at the 7:00 am pre-strike rally, and had friends in the Administrative District Office, and we were not yet formally union, and hard to face incoming 1st grader's and their confused and unhappy parents, many I knew, at the first day of school, but by God I stood with my colleagues.

Always sorry when it comes to this.
