The internet wasn't around in 2005? Pretty sure we had all the news networks, Youtube was around in 2005, Blogs were pretty big then to.

This isn't like we are talking ancient history here.

And if the media is supposed to be so "liberally" biased, then wouldn't they throw a fit about this? I mean, in 2005, Bush wasn't exactly "popular"

Actually, I remember singing a Nixon song in the 70s in school:

There was a rotten president
And Nixon was his name-o
N-I-X-O-N
N-I-X-O-N
N-I-X-O-N
And Nixon was his name-o

When will you be watching this video and commenting on what is there? I offered way back there to help you out by telling you to start about minute 1:35 and going on from there. If this union supporter isn't very left leaning I wonder just what he is. His name is a dirty name at our house because of the union he worked for and was speaking to at an annual meeting while doing his last duties. You make sure you listen to him so you can explain to me how the things I have said about the NEA are all wrong. I think that you have watched and don't want to admit that I was right about this thread opener.

Maybe you could learn a bit more about the NEA if you read all of pages 6-7-8 of this link.

I don't feel we are indoctrinated to like democratic politicians. We are indoctrinated in far left ideology. They teach you all this liberal stuff without giving the other side. For example when i was taught about health care I was taught how great socialized health care was. They never taught us why people are opposed to health care. We were led to believe that it was because people are greedy and want poor black people to die. Never were we taught some people feel we cannot afford it forever. We were never even taught how much of that money came from our checks.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
Thats a teachers union, as others have pointed out, in most states that have little to no power.

And Unions aren't public institutions, I can't tell them what to do, or not to do.

Default Katiana

How about you watch this video and come back with how I was so wrong about the NEA when I started this thread? I am wondering if them being a union takes away the chance that they would attempt to indoctrinate kids. I have some other good stuff from google to throw in here but this thing blew up about things I didn't look for. I will brink that one good one back just for you and Memphis.
