Christie's attack on teachers is an insult to anyone's intelligence. Christie needs someone to blame for New Jersey's fiscal mess, so he chose the teachers. (He has no concern for public schools - he sends his children to private schools.) NJ's fiscal mess started with Christie Whitman (Oh my God! Another Republican!) when she played with the state pension system to give tax breaks to the rich. And if Christie is really concerned about the cost of teaching, why hasn't he looked into the bloated overpaid ADMINISTRATIONS of the schools? There are school districts in NJ that have only one or two schools and yet have complete boards like major cities. Do we really need all those administrators? In Mendham Borough (near Christie's home) the middle school has a DEAN OF STUDENTS. Does a middle school need a Dean Of Students? Talk about overpaid administrators! Of course Christie won't deal with this - Mendham is heavily Republican.
And regarding Christie's attack on the teachers, here's a little multiple choice history test that might put this all in perspective:
In (1930 Germany, 2010 New Jersey) there was a fiscal crisis and (Adolf Hitler, Chris Christie) needed a scapegoat. So he chose the (Jews, teachers).
Maybe it's in poor taste to compare Christie to Hitler. But conservative hate groups have no qualms comparing Obama to Hitler. But I guess that's acceptable because the members of these groups are God-fearing Family-valued white folks.
