38. Live Call-in - notes

Great comments about Jimmy Carter, whose book is vying for #1 NYT list. He thinks him ‘saintly’ and will let his book stay at the top for one more week.

He is a “Buffet Religionists” None particularly attracts him, but he uses pieces of several in his life.

Caller is a teacher in an affluent school who is being pressured to dress in an ‘affluent fashion’ even though she can’t afford it.
He’s flabbergasted. Tells her that the next time she is being told this, to have them put it in writing. That should put a stop to it, and if it doesn’t get union involved.

Fear <--------------------------------------> Freedom

McCourt thinks the NCLB is a “horror” “Its not education. It’s bullying and politics” I really like this man. :loveya:

“The purpose of education is not to produce cogs for the military industrial complex.”
More teachers like this please! :bounce:
