Libs Call Teachers’ Unions on Screwing NY’s Kids
I was watching Morning Joe last week, mostly because I can’t live without seeing Mika Brzezinski scowl inexplicably and uncontrollably. Seriously, would it hurt to smile a little more? ‘Puter also watches, as Gormogon operatives have noted, so you don’t have to.
‘Puter was shocked — seriously — to find the uber-liberal panel (including Carl Bernstein) absolutely crucify national teachers’ union leader Randi Weingarten in a lengthy live interview. In sum, the Morning Joe crew badgered Ms. Weingarten on her union’s tanking of a possible $700 million federal grant to New York schools because the union doesn’t want charter schools. See the video here. (If Czar, GorT, Volgi or Mandarin can figure out how to embed the video, so much the better. ‘Puter can’t.) You see, unions can’t allow competition, because they can’t compete.
The gist of the panel’s question was that the unions killed the grant because of the charter school component, and the only reason to do that was to protect union jobs. Every indicator in New York is that charter schools have improved educational outcomes for students, particularly for inner-city disadvantaged kids. Ms. Weingarten blinks like a brainwashed Manson Family member, repeating endlessly that “it’s all for the children,” as if saying it enough would make it true. She offered no rebuttal to the panel’s suspicions that her union’s opposition was based on benefit to the teachers alone, and not on the good of the students. Watch it. It’s astonishing, the smarmy evasion and bald faced lying.
‘Puter knows history is moving against public sector unions when the liberal folks on Morning Joe have started to openly question its benefits.

Always right, unless he isn’t, the infallible Ghettoputer F. X. Gormogons claims to be an in-law of the Volgi, although no one really believes this.
’Puter carefully follows economic and financial trends, legal affairs, and serves as the Gormogons’ financial and legal advisor. He successfully defended us against a lawsuit from a liquor distributor worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid deliveries of bootleg shandies.
The Geep has an IQ so high it is untestable and attempts to measure it have resulted in dangerously unstable results as well as injuries to researchers. Coincidentally, he publishes intelligence tests as a side gig.
His sarcasm is so highly developed it borders on the psychic, and he is often able to insult a person even before meeting them. ’Puter enjoys hunting small game with 000 slugs and punt guns, correcting homilies in real time at Mass, and undermining unions. ’Puter likes to wear a hockey mask and carry an axe into public campgrounds, where he bursts into people’s tents and screams. As you might expect, he has been shot several times but remains completely undeterred.
He assures us that his obsessive fawning over news stories involving women teachers sleeping with young students is not Freudian in any way, although he admits something similar once happened to him. Uniquely, ’Puter is unable to speak, read, or write Russian, but he is able to sing it fluently.
Geep joined the order in the mid-1980s. He arrived at the Castle door with dozens of steamer trunks and an inarticulate hissing creature of astonishingly low intelligence he calls “Sleestak.” Ghettoputer appears to make his wishes known to Sleestak, although no one is sure whether this is the result of complex sign language, expert body posture reading, or simply beating Sleestak with a rubber mallet.
‘Puter suggests the Czar suck it.
