Shocking, I know... But at least you should be aware of how blatantly partisan the NEA truly is. Anybody else think tenure is an outdated idea?

Teachers' Pets - If we told you that an organization gave away more than $65 million last year to Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, Amnesty International, AIDS Walk Washington and dozens of other such advocacy groups, you'd probably assume we were describing a liberal philanthropy.
