My mother the terrorist
Look, Neal Boortz, as I have pointed out, is a bigoted moron. Why, given his history, do people still lend this idiot a soapbox, when he uses it to say things like this:
SEAN HANNITY: Alright, let me ask you. Because, you - when you said about the Department of Education - you want to abolish it - when you said that the teachers unions is more dangerous to this country in the long term -

NEAL BOORTZ: In the long term, yeah.

HANNITY: Than al Qaeda.

BOORTZ: Right. Look, Al Qaeda, they could bring in a nuke into this country and kill 100,000 people with a well-placed nuke somewhere. Ok. We would recover from that. It would be a terrible tragedy, but the teachers unions in this country can destroy a generation.

HANNITY: They are.

BOORTZ: Well, they are destroying a generation.

HANNITY: They are ruining our school system.

BOORTZ: They’re much more dangerous. We worry about al Qaeda and we should. But at the same time let’s not let the teachers union skate.

HANNITY: They destroyed our school system, and we don't do anything. The parents - why there aren’t people rising up against it is unbelievable.
My mother is a teacher and is, according to Boortz and Sean Hannity, worse than a terrorist. Hannity wonders why people aren't rising up against this grave threat? Both he and Boortz are staring their answer in the face each time they look in the mirror: What they're saying is crazy talk. Pure, unadulterated fucking crazy talk. I mean, Hannity said before the 2006 election that keeping Nancy Pelosi from becoming the Speaker of the House was something worth fighting and dying for. To actually believe that - or to believe the sentiment behind the above exchange - is to voluntarily remove yourself from reality. That so many people seemingly give these people a platform from which to spew such rhetoric amazes me. Well, it does, until you realize that the official White House mouthpiece, Tony Snow, to hear him say it, likely agrees:
Tony Snow: "The Iranian people are more pro American than any American university faculty."
We're dealing with crazy people, everyone. Never forget that.

3. They'd probably be happy if Christofascists had been infiltrating
primary and secondary teaching jobs in the U.S. for the last 20 or so years.

5. Hannity is a college dropout, so you can see why he hates teachers
Boortz...I think he's a Cro-Magnon exhibit escapee from the Smithsonian Institute...they didn't need books back then. Just sticks and small penises.

6. The real truth is that the governments, federal and state, are destroying
education in this country, and in doing that they are destroying the futures of both the current generation AND the country.

7. Bat Shit Crazy. Talk like this isn't something to polarize Americans!
It should unite us into casting them from their loft pillars of so called "journalism."
