The links at the top to previous posts pointing out the weakness in the State Teacher Union&#8217;s screed against a sale of Central to Edison are what I hope the teachers read. I&#8217;m happy to point out that the union has every right to propagandize through our email system and I don&#8217;t begrudge them that right.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;s President, Frank Wanner. Edison was the sore point then too. By the way I won by the way <em>and I have never found fault with Frank&#8217;s attempt to defeat me <\/em>&#8211; 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.<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost this blog is meant to let people know and help them understand what&#8217;s going on behind the scenes in their children&#8217;s schools. Secondly its meant to help me explain myself. I&#8217;m not your typical infuriating politician. I&#8217;m only an infuriating politician. <\/p>\n<p>Now let me talk about ISD 709&#8217;s teachers and their union.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;but won&#8217;t because I think that would be an abuse of my school board position&#8230;..although the Teacher&#8217;s union sent out a lot of misinformation&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16135"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16135"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16166,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16135\/revisions\/16166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
