Republican positions. Does anybody think this won't be used in Wisconsin, for example?

It is a distraction Democrats don't need right now. This is our "Rep. Akin".

Teachers striking vs Rape can't get a woman pregnant.
Do you realize how stupid that sounds?

Try to be specific because Americans don't think of their teachers as equal to some idiot who does not understand simple biology and says some heinously offensive and incredibly ignorant thing, not in my view they don't.

I'm not commenting on the validity of the cause of the Chicago teachers. I'm only commenting on the timing, which is clearly helpful to the Republicans. It would have been much better if this strike could come after the election.

There is no upside to Democrats for talking about Chicago teachers when we should be talking about the plan to destroy Social Security and Medicare.

It helps the Republicans change the subject.

be baaad for obama and that he needs to get over hisself.
