First of all, I find ridiculous that any rightwinger would be using the phrase "mutual repsect' when their governing style depends almost wholly on intimidation, control, domination and lying to the public.

Secondly, "he sucks," and "heblowsalot" does not, in my book as a retired administrator, require an hour long discussion with a student. What are you going to talk about for an hour? Unless of course it was simply an attempt at intimidation - which no administrator or teacher should ever invoke as a means of discipline.

Should she have been twittering during the speech - no. Is this a major concern - definitely not. I do think it says something about the extreme paranoia that surrounds rightwing republicans and their penchant for governing from a position of fear rather than from a position of intelligence AND MUTUAL RESPECT.
