Sen. Jim DeMint made an apparent joke Friday on the tense labor dispute in Chicago's public school system, using a harsh word to describe those on strike.
"You know, we have had a lot of bad news this week. On my way over, I was reading another story about a distant place where thugs had put 400,000 children out in the streets. And then I realized that was a story about the Chicago teachers strike," DeMint said, prompting laughter from the crowd at the Values Voter Summit, a social-conservative event in Washington, D.C.
It astounds my sensibilities that these politicians use their podiums as speakeasies. They give absolutely no thought to what they are saying and put out a clear message to a nation about accountability. From ROMNEY CAMP TO OBAMA CAMP TO THIS..
They come off as a bunch of uninformed bullies. Do they not understand the repercussions of this behavior? I am sure it worked in HS while you were playing Tight end! But not now.. you traded in your pads for Armani. But I can't even insult the pro football community when we have people like Chris Kluwe writing in support of Brendon Ayanbadejo in a letter supporting gay marriage.
It has just become the norm to shoot off at the mouth and making a funny at the expense of, in this case teachers who spend more time with the kids than their own parents. Do you know how many parents I know that have their children basically weekends and still need the help of a damn NANNY.. PLEASE..
TEACHERS THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU!!
