I am a proud member of the American Federation of Teachers. In the past year I have watched as Arne Duncan and Barrack Obama have bad mouthed fellow teacher in public speeches and actions. They will not receive my support. I will back local and national candidates that will remember who brought them to the dance in the first place. Yes it hurts to 'piss away' that much money-but if I recollect, it is MY MONEY to piss away. I worked OT and gave that money and time working to get Obama elected and folks said I was pissing away my money then. I feel now that my friends were right then-so don't count on me this next time. I didn't work that hard for corporations to continue to screw us over. I am not a far left member of the Democratic Party-but I am an old school Democrat that remembers what that stands for.
