Chancellor Klein and Mayor Bloomberg live in a dreamworld in New York City. Both gentlemen are beaming with pride as they talk about the fact that violent crime has gone down in our public schools. While this may be very true, we are not getting the full story and here is why:
Both men conveniently don't mention about non-violent crime. We have far too many disruptive students in our classes. Why? The parent(s) will not sign for a special education evaluation. Therefore, the child is allowed to continue disrupting classes.
Not all the brats attending city schools are violent. We have children out there who constantly disrupt classes by talking, screaming, throwing objects, running around the halls and classrooms to make it virtually impossible for the teacher to conduct a class.
Gentlemen, why are you so hesitant in bringing back the 600 school concept for unruly children?

Savage is Acting Like One
As a retired New York City teacher, I take exception to what radio host Michael Savage said about autistic children. Mr. Savage, autism is a disease and those afflicted with it are handicapped. To compare them to brats is insensitive and outrageous.
If you want to see brats in action, I cordially invite you and others, especially from the editorial boards of newspapers, to visit New York City classrooms during the current school years. Bring your cameras and let the film roll. Watch for the disrespect, cursing, and violent acts. Watch some of our "children'" in action as they routinely run through the halls while creating general mayhem. I guarantee that you would have a whole new perspective on education and brats. Don't blame autistic children.

2 Less Votes for McCain
Sen. John McCain will be receiving 2 less votes this November. Anne Armstrong and that wealthy Republican lady from Rhode Island died today. So the Republicans lost two of their stalwart broads.

Bye Bye Olmert
Israeli P.M. Olmert will step down. This is a long time coming. Sen. Obama or Sen. McCain may be dealing with Benjamin Netanyahu. It looks like Bibi can come back and watch out you Palestinian hooligans if he does. Am Yisroel Chai!
Vive Sarkozy!
People criticize French President Sarkozy for liking Sen. Obama. We should be grateful that we finally have a French president who is pro-Israel. Maybe, this will cut down on the anti-semitic acts in France.
Ludacrous is Ludicrous
What kind of jerk is this Ludacrous? Spell it correctly fool, especially since you are ridiculous. How dare you say that John McCain should be paralyzed. What kind of moron are you? If you don't like McCain, don't vote for him. Idiotic remarks like this will only help Sen. McCain as people are edgy regarding Sen. Obama. It has been said that this is Mr. Obama's election to lose. Having people such as this imbecile Ludacrous talk out will accomplish this. Ludacrous, shut your stupid mouth. You'll set back civil rights by 50 years if you keep this up.
Troops to Start Coming Home
Happy to hear that the troops may start coming home from Iraq. Despite this week's bombing, the President announces this. Is this another ploy to elect John McCain president? You have to wonder.
