1) She was elected by the BoE, she can be fired and doesn't need to be recalled or voted out.

2) This issue has nothing to do with the 1st Amendment.

You've provided nothing to counter any of that information. Yet you keep yapping.

Do you know what freedom of speech means? EOTE Jan 2013 #6

large numbers of DUers haven't a clue as to what the 1st amendment protects. not a fucking clue. cali Jan 2013 #10

Ain't that the truth. EOTE Jan 2013 #34

well why don't you explain it to the benighted, cali. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #69

it allows the American populace to engage in political speech datasuspect Jan 2013 #14

it does not protect you from being forced to resign for saying something political or cali Jan 2013 #20

that's not the issue at hand datasuspect Jan 2013 #23

how do you 'fire' an elected official? HiPointDem Jan 2013 #54

No, that's not what it does. EOTE Jan 2013 #31

we've established that you have no idea what you're talking about datasuspect Jan 2013 #32

Christ you're good at projection. EOTE Jan 2013 #33

that isn't the point i am arguing datasuspect Jan 2013 #37

And that person has every right to get fired for that same speech. EOTE Jan 2013 #40

i'm not suggesting. datasuspect Jan 2013 #42

You still haven't explained how this has anything to do with the first amendment. EOTE Jan 2013 #43

are you still buzzing around datasuspect Jan 2013 #47

Well, thanks for making me aware. EOTE Jan 2013 #50

school boards are typically elected by the voters, not political appointments. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #56

I don't see what that has to do with anything posted previously. EOTE Jan 2013 #59

elected officials don't get 'fired'. you act like the governor or someone can just step in & HiPointDem Jan 2013 #60

Again, that has nothing to do with whether or not this is a first amendment issue. EOTE Jan 2013 #62

he may have 'hand-picked' her as a candidate, but she's an elected official, not an appointee. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #64

Once again, you are completely clouding the issue. EOTE Jan 2013 #68

He can't *fire* someone elected by the voters, what don't you get? HiPointDem Jan 2013 #71

I've proven that that's not the case. Did you read the link I provided? EOTE Jan 2013 #73

So, you've got nothing? EOTE Jan 2013 #75

i posted *proof* that she's an elected official. you post some *proof* that kasich can 'fire' HiPointDem Jan 2013 #78

She was elected by the BOARD not by Ohio voters. EOTE Jan 2013 #80

she was elected as *president* by the board, but elected to the *board itself* by the voters. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #81

Again, we're talking about her position as president. EOTE Jan 2013 #82

the governor didn't appoint her as president & can't fire her as president -- unless he's a dictator HiPointDem Jan 2013 #83

You've provided nothing in terms of proof. EOTE Jan 2013 #84

your idiotic interjections don't 'suggest' any such thing. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #85

So you've given up on offering anything in terms of proof? EOTE Jan 2013 #86

she was elected to the BOE by the VOTERS, as I've proven. You got nothing. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #88

Derp. But she became PRESIDENT because she was elected by the BoE? Comprende? EOTE Jan 2013 #89

i'm the one who told you that. you didn't know a damn thing about the boe before i told you. HiPointDem Jan 2013 #91

So, you're saying that you're full of shit? EOTE Jan 2013 #92
