My husbands union always endorses the Democrats.

The NEA has supported the Democrats in every election I can think of. I see nothing aberrant about this matter.

Yep, I think most unions do.

Teachers should show their support away from the job - not on the job. Politics are "supposed" to be left out of the classroom. Go to almost any university and you can hear the liberal indoctrination. However, blue day was across elementary and high schools.

I think it is wrong to curtail a person's expression of a thought or opinion-- especially in a school environment.

Freedom of expression is a basic right guaranteed by the First Amendment.

But you would scream to high heaven if they had a support McCain day, That's the way of the libs.

A teacher should teach a child how to think - not what to think - about political candidates. In a public school, I would want my child to be in a neutral environment concering politics or religion.
