…but won’t because I think that would be an abuse of my school board position…..although the Teacher’s union sent out a lot of misinformation on the District’s email service. Check out: Let’s Get Real #5 , #6 , #7 , #8 , #9 ,#10
I’ll need a little more time with this one.
After giving it a day and a moderately restful night I will skip ahead and don’t have a lot more to add to this post. The links at the top to previous posts pointing out the weakness in the State Teacher Union’s screed against a sale of Central to Edison are what I hope the teachers read. I’m happy to point out that the union has every right to propagandize through our email system and I don’t begrudge them that right.
I will have a lot more to say about their union in Duluth in upcoming posts. Some of it I will plumb ancient history when I was threatened with attack for my 1999 reelection bid by the DFT’s President, Frank Wanner. Edison was the sore point then too. By the way I won by the way and I have never found fault with Frank’s attempt to defeat me – although the threat made me the hardest campaigning candidate any school board election had ever seen. It also drove me to set up a website www.snowbizz.com to explain what was going on in the Duluth Schools. A lot of dubious things were being said about me. Today that site is largely archival and this blog Linconldemocrat has taken over that function.
First and foremost this blog is meant to let people know and help them understand what’s going on behind the scenes in their children’s schools. Secondly its meant to help me explain myself. I’m not your typical infuriating politician. I’m only an infuriating politician.
Now let me talk about ISD 709’s teachers and their union.
