The National Education Association is America's largest teachers union. You know, the one that is always complaining about teachers being underpaid. Guess how it spends a good portion of the millions of dollars it collects in dues from those underpaid servants of society. Never mind, I will tell you. A Wall Street Journal editorial last week revealed that $65 million went to Jesse Jackson's Rainbow coalition, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance against Defamation, Amnesty International, Aids Walk Washington among many other left-wing liberal groups. The editorial pointed out that the NEA has a $58 million payroll for just 600 employees. More than half pull in six-figure salaries. I have often charged that the NEA is nothing more than a cash cow and front for the Democratic National Committee. Believe it or not, there are some teachers who are registered Republicans. They would rather have that money in their paychecks. And don't ever forget that you don't really own your home. You are renting it from the local school board. Don't miss a tax payment. Jesse needs the money. freerepublic.com
