UNCIVIL SPEECH: TEACH YOUR CHILDREN WELL or "THE SEVEN DEADLY VIRTUES" BEING TAUGHT by STRIKING TEACHERS and OTHERS


As expected, the protest by the school teachers in Madison, Wisconsin is devolving into a moral morass.  There are reports and videos of Doctors providing false medical excuses for striking teachers' absence from the classroom.  Apart from the obvious fraud being perpetrated by BOTH the doctors and the teachers against taxpayers; this also sets a poor example for the students that they claim to care so much for. All of the Democrat legislators are hiding at a Best Western Hotel in Illinois hold up like cockroaches in a darkened cupboard.  Their sorry excuse for their absence is that they want to "slow down" the process.  Not so; they simply don't want to lose an embarrassing vote to the Republicans that will offend their public employee union creditors.  

     As an aside, House Democrats in Indiana have taken a page from the Wisconsin Weasels and are fleeing over the state line from a vote on legislation to curtail the power of public employee unions.  They are using the same cowardly tactics as their Wisconsin brethren to act in favor of their special interest group against the interests of taxpayers.  After all, didn't the public employees' unions contribute boatloads of campaign cash to the best Democrat legislators that money could buy?

But let's digress back to the poor children. Lyrics from the Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young song Teach Your Children once implored idealistic, young Baby Boomers to:
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks the one you'll know by [sic]
It's a safe guess that many of these striking teachers are also Baby Boomers.  Many young talented teachers are let go during times of budget crises while older incompetent Baby Boomer teacher hacks are retained.  These generational defectives hold on to their teaching  jobs because of the antiquated concept of teacher tenure.  This sadly, is to the  detriment of education.  Why not try competence and merit instead as to employment decisions?

     So what sterling "virtues" are the formerly idealistic Boomer pedagogue  hacks teaching the children?  Check out the Baby Boomer Seven Deadly Virtues listed below:
  1. Indolence: Webster's Online Dictionary defines indolence as idleness, laziness, inertia, shiftlessness, or sloth.  Teachers have openly refused to go back to work even though they proclaim, as they beat the chests in self-righteousness, that they are doing it "for the children."  To paraphrase an old saying, "Citing concern for children's welfare, like proclaiming one's patriotism, is the last refuge of scoundrels." 
  2. Dishonesty: Doctors have taken the Hippocratic Oath to first "do no harm."  But by giving false cover to these thugs, these so-called healers have compromised the integrity of medicine by providing phony medical excuses.  Would you have any faith in a doctor that abused his license to practice medicine in order to advance a dubious political agenda?  How do you feel about the con-artist teachers that use these false medical excuses to collect sick pay?  This bad behavior also undermines the moral authority of any teacher anywhere   seeking to discipline a kid for cheating on test--doesn't it?   
  3. Incivility: Webster's Online Dictionary defines incivility as the quality or state of being uncivil or a rude or discourteous act.  Look at the signs carried by the striking teachers comparing Governor Walker to Hitler and Hosni Mubarak. One wonders what happened to the civility that the Hypocrite-in-Chief called for in the aftermath of the Tucson shootings last month? Perhaps we should call Obama the Hypocrite-in-Chief instead.
  4. Greed:  Suffice it to say that when a freeloader tries to get someone else to pay the entire freight for what the freeloader wants and desires, then "Houston, we've got a problem."  How dare these teacher-freeloaders demand that taxpayers pay the entire cost for their medical care and retirement pensions!  These freeloading teachers not only want a free lunch, but a free breakfast, dinner, and a midnight snack too!
  5. Cowardice:  Just look at the runaway legislators in Wisconsin and now apparently Indiana.  Balless wonders, including the  Liberal-Fascist women legislators.  Oh, and as a post script to the dishonesty "virtue" above, these cowardly legislators are probably using state credit cards and Per Diem payments to fund their AWOL status.
  6. Uncleanliness:  Many of the protesters look like they haven't seen the business side of a bar of soap in weeks. Dirty beanies and clothes are the uniform of the "Days of Rage" for the 1960s throwback protesters.  Don't you just hate people that try to relive their wasted immature youth?
  7. Thuggery: Many of these protesters aren't Wisconsin public employees.  They don't have as our esteemed man child Presidunce would say "Any skin in the game."  They are part of the rent-a thug bunch that are also a part of the Hypocrite-in-Chief's SS-like  Organizing America branch of his political machine.  The busing in of Obama's union and campaign thugs are reminiscent of the unpopular 1970s school busing remedy that happened in the very intolerant, Liberal, and very segregated Boston, Massachusetts school system. 
* * * * *

Election results don't seem to matter anymore unless you're Presidunce Obama saying to Republicans in 2009, "We won and you lost."  (Read, "Get lost Republicans.  We don't want any of your input.)  Let us pray that the Liberal-Fascist Baby Boomer generation of politicians are soundly defeated.  To paraphrase Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes' comment in Buck v. Bell, "One generation of Liberal-Fascist Baby Boomer political imbeciles is enough."
