....asks Woodlass, a 20 year veteran teacher and recent ATR on her blogunder assault. Here is an excerpt:
Is the word "prevaricator" politically incorrect?
If what NY1 reports she said is really true (and there’s no reason to believe it isn’t, is there?) -- Randi Weingarten should be growing a nice long nose by now:
"We have to attract and recruit and nurture teachers in order to get the best and the brightest, not only to get them to come, but stay."

WHAT ?
Attract them and recruit them, yes. But nurture them?
When was the last time you “nurtured” a teacher, Randi?
Was it when you cut our summers a little shorter? or when you incrementally allowed a 5-period teaching day to turn into a 6-period one, which calculations showed hardly made a dent in take-home pay? (I think some actually thought it didn’t even equal what we had before.)
