(8,434 posts)as strongly for teachers and teacher unions as Damon does we can "slam" him.
Until then, I'll cheer for pictures like this.

(34,294 posts)Here is the quote: "Hes doubled down on a lot of things, going back to education
the idea that were testing kids and were tying teachers salaries to how kids are performing on tests, that kind of mechanized thinking has nothing to do with higher order, Damon continued. Were training them, not teaching them.
Damon is absolutely right about that and the president is the person who appointed Arne Duncan as Secretary of Education.
Just sayin'.

(52 posts)has he actually said he won't vote for him?
I can't imagine he'd vote for Romney.
Maybe vote for O but not do as much for him as he did in '08?

Hard to tell if they even miss us. I guess they know what they're doing.
Or do they? Hmmmm..............
