Here is more irrational behavior from some of those educating our teachers here in Idaho and their Democratic supporters. This is a screen shot from a second Twitter account who wanted to follow me (one of several created by an individual or individuals who call themselves "slutbot"). Not only is it childish but also offensive. This is another example of emotional personal attacks and denigration rather that civil dialogue and counter-proposals. Thank heavens this group doesn't speak for all teachers. One interesting thing about this is that "slutbot" was very active during the 2010 election cycle so I would assume that this group not only includes some educators but also liberal democrats who have no proposals, answers to problems, or ideas of their own and instead use childish attacks to amuse themselves. All this does is make them part of the problem not the solution. Sad. Really sad.
On a second note, the IEA is also now attacking a student for creating a Facebook page in support of "Students Come First." And all this time I thought that the educational system was about teaching the students critical and higher level thinking. Apparently for some in the educational industry (and teacher's union for that manner) that only applies to approved issues and points of view besides showing that they may be lacking this skill as well or at least unwilling to use it.
