Lawrence O’Donnell, who has school teacher embedded in his professional resume, spoke movingly of America’s teacher and their new “Job Description”— The GOP intent on making every American classroom a re-enactment of the shootout at The O.K. Corral - in his Rewrite segment last night. If you haven’t seen it it is really a must, unfortunately it is not up on YouTube yet, but you can view it here.
As good as his presentation was what really got to me were the replies he received on his Twitter Page… afterward — some of which I will post below:
We will never completely rid this country of idiots who think that the GOP and The NRA have our best interests at heart and that arming teachers is a good idea. We will for the foreseeable future have to share our country with folks who would think that Newt Gingrich is on par with Thucydides…. if they had the least idea who Thucydides was…
But poll after poll shows that we do outnumber them, and by quite a lot.
We must commit ourselves to insuring that every like minded American is registered to vote and show up to the polls.
Enough is enough.
Enough is too much.
