Is this the name of their union?


That is the name of one of their unions.

There are many.

Why don't you tell us where you got your bullshit information from?

5th request.

NCAE isn't even a union. Jesus H Fucking Christ. LOL

Yes it is.

6th request.

Brian Brown said...

Note how fucking stupid the silly, fat, idiot is.

He can't understand that because it doesn't say "union" in the title that it is a union.

Again, you are so fucking stupid, I feel sorry for you.

Brian Brown said...

Professional associations are unions. They operate on the same principles (protecting professional rights) merely called a different name. You pay dues to be part of them, they help to demand better working condition, and they have a code of conduct.

Of course I bet garagie can name all sorts of non-union groups who's job it is to resolve grievances for it's members.

Really, he can.

Oh, and while conveniently not referencing his "fact" that 97% of NC teachers are not in a union.

Union representing teachers in the state. Affiliated with the NEA.

Expecting poor Manboobs to know anything about the very thing he is constantly shilling for day in and day out on this site is far too much.

Like most liberals, he is utterly ignorant to even the most basic of facts.

Also, he is a fatty.

Uh, yes it is.

In North Carolina early Thursday morning, Republicans in the state Legislature used an after-hours maneuver to strip
the state’s largest
teachers union of automatic deductions of union dues from members’ paychecks.

State Democrats cried foul, accusing Republicans of an underhanded attempt to undermine unions in the middle of the night while no one was paying attention.

In an unscheduled session that followed a special legislative session called to deal with another issue, Republicans held a vote at 1:12 a.m. to override the Democratic governor's veto of a bill that would deny union dues paycheck deductions for the North Carolina Assn. of Educators. Two Democrats joined in the 69-to-45 vote, the News and Observer of Raleigh reported.

7th request.

Brian Brown said...

Not only have I linked to news stories and reference documents, I've listed the teacher's unions in North Carolina.

The silly, fat intellectual coward won't reveal where he got his "fact" from.

Gee, I wonder why?

garage mahal said...

Like most liberals, he is utterly ignorant to even the most basic of facts.

So why don't you quit fucking barking from the sidelines and come onto the field for once where we can hit you?

Nah, you don't have the stomach or the smarts for that sort of thing.

President-Mom-Jeans said...


"So why don't you quit fucking barking from the sidelines and come onto the field for once where we can hit you?"

Easy there tubby, settle down. No wonder you wife left you.

What are you going to hit me with? Gems like "NCAE isn't even a union"?

Perhaps your claim that nobody wants charter schools?

Or will you hit me with your inside information about that Walker indictment?

Swing away, fatty. Swing away.

garage mahal said...

So where can I find the contracts with the state of North Carolina and the NCAE?

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Here is a starting point Manboobs, once you have this under your belt, perhaps you can join the adults in the conversation.

Courtesy of that noted Rightwing propoganda outfit Merriam Webster.


labor union
noun

: an organization of workers formed for the purpose of advancing its members' interests in respect to wages, benefits, and working conditions

Where can I find your reference for the claim that "in North Carolina, where 97.7% [teachers] are non-union,"

Thanks.

"Professional associations are unions. They operate on the same principles (protecting professional rights) merely called a different name. You pay dues to be part of them, they help to demand better working condition, and they have a code of conduct."

Do they have contracts with the place(s) of employment where their members work, contracts with mutual obligations between the employer and the employed? If so, they're unions; if not, they're not.

They may act to help advocate for better working conditions and compensation for their members, but if they don't have a contract with the employer which stipulates the contractual obligations of pay, compensation, disciplinary procedures, job duties, etc., and designating them as representation for the employees in employer/employee disputes, they're not unions.

Brian Brown said...

garage mahal said...

I'm seeing the NCAE listed as a 501(c)6 tax-exempt lobbying and advocacy group.


Of course you are.

NCAE is prevented from acting as a bargaining agent by law.


The Wisconsin Education Association Council represents the public policy, labor and professional interests of its members, too.

You are fucking pathetic.

Brian Brown said...

garage has really revealed what a silly, dishonest hack he is.

Brian Brown said...

North Carolina has a statutory ban on collective bargaining for public sector employees. Reversing this ban has been, and continues to be, a top legislative
priority of public employees (SEANC) and teachers (NCAE).

The Chicago Tribune Opinion piece linked to CounterPunch.org

And......Counterpunch proved you're a fucking moron who thinks an association that has no contract with any management, employer, or state entity is a trade union.

Brian Brown said...

garage mahal said...

No they didn't.

Note: you have no reference for the bullshit claim.

Instead of admitting it came from Couterpunch.org you pathetically tried to say it came from the Chicago Tribune.

Brian Brown said...

NEAC is a teacher's union.

I've linked to 3 news articles referring to them as such.

They refer to themselves as such.

You linked to counterpunch

Idiot.

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Hey Manboobs,

Just because they are not as effective in holding taxpayers hostage while simultaneously fucking over students as in union run shitholes like Detroit and Chicago does not make them stop being unions.

I think I figured out your loathing for charter schools though. Did you ex wife leave you for a charter school teacher or administrator? Explains a lot.

Brian Brown said...

What is even funnier about garagie's defense of counterpunch.org is he is now reduced to arguing that "an association that has no contract with any management, employer, or state entity is not a union, while collective bargaining is illegal yet somehow 2.3% of teachers are still unionized.

Don't worry garagie, this inconsistency is too complicated for you.

Go back to counterpunch, you fat clown.

garage mahal said...

Instead of admitting it came from Couterpunch.org you pathetically tried to say it came from the Chicago Tribune.?

I linked *to* the Trib. I copied and pasted directly from it earlier in the thread. I wouldn't be embarrassed to link to Counterpunch at all, I've done it many times on this blog.

NCAE is not, or has ever been, a union.

Of course you wouldn't be embarrassed. You have no credibility and are frankly stupid.

You have not one utter clue where counterpunch would get that information, nor do you care.

Uh, why didn't you just link to counterpunch you silly little liar?

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Your lack of embarassment does not make it a legitimate source. The fact that you have linked to it many times on this blog similarly gives it no more validity.

You have been shown to be a stuttering idiot with fuckall knowledge of the facts. You try to change the equation by redefining the definition of a union.

Much like your marriage, this was a huge failure on your part.

garage mahal said...

I think I figured out your loathing for charter schools though

Because shit hole trailers that serve as schools produces pig ignorant dumb fucks like you with no social or reasoning skills. Lots to loath about you, motherfucker.

Brian Brown said...

Remember,

The only thing that qualifies an entity as a union is collective bargaining and a contract.

However, in North Carolina, collective bargaining by public employees (that would be teachers) is illegal.

Faced with this, garagie can't bring himself to wonder how then 2.7% of NC teachers are unionized.

Don't worry, counterpunch sez so and they're like totally legit!!!

Brian Brown said...

garage mahal said...

Um, he's not the one making such idiotic claims as "Nobody wants charter schools" and linking to left wing propagandist Web sites.

You are. And as a reminder, your education topped out at high school.

Project much?

President-Mom-Jeans said...

"Because shit hole trailers that serve as schools produces pig ignorant dumb fucks like you with no social or reasoning skills. Lots to loath about you, motherfucker."

Tsk Tsk blubby, tsk tsk. Such language! Easy with that anger, we all know how bad stress and elevated blood pressure are for the obese. You don't want to stroke out now do you? Who would pay that alimony if you shook lose the mortal coil?

Such unbridled rage and envy, you fit right into the leftist union fellating collective.

If it makes you feel better fatty, by all means vent your anger at me. Was it some private school educated easterner lawyer with a BMI you can only dream about who helped her take the house? I doubt you had much in the way of assets anyways. But I take accountability for the collective sins of my fellow attorneys.

Get it out chubrock, have a good cry.

That's it, let it all out.

As far as Rawls is concerned, his probable ally Dworkin looks more interesting and I'm inclined to look for his 'Hedgehog' book. I appreciate the reference to Penelope's blog. This pre-K thing was typical of Obama's speeches to which I have this metareaction of 'You are a drone. You should feel bad for not wanting to be a drone.'

"You are. And as a reminder, your education topped out at high school."

I don't think I ever saw this Jay. Did he say this on the Althouse site back in the day?

While normally I am very much of the opinion that credentialed doesn't necessarily equal educated, I find this new information to be delightful.

garage mahal said...

Um, he's not the one making such idiotic claims as "Nobody wants charter schools" and linking to left wing propagandist Web sites.

Every single time vouchers have been left up to voters in state referendums they've been rejected. Utah rejected it in 2007 by a vote of 68%-32%

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Jesus Manboobs, you make it too easy.

You attempt to defend yourself for the statement "nobody wants charter schools" by saying that 32%of the voters in Utah want them?

Nobody huh? Really?

It's okay fatty, not everyone is cut out for higher education.

garage mahal said...

You attempt to defend yourself for the statement "nobody wants charter schools" by saying that 32%of the voters in Utah want them?

I know you went to a trailer school in Florida, but for fuck sake, [and again], when you put quote marks around a phrase attributing to somebody, it supposed to be word for word!

Hint: I didn't say "nobody wants charter schools"

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Manboobs Mahal says:

"School choice proponents that cash whip politicians to enact school voucher programs that don't work and aren't wanted"

You just said that 32% of Utah's voters want them.

But you have demonstrated logic certainly isn't your forte, and it's not fair to expect advanced reasoning from someone who's highest educational achievement was graduation from a public high school.

Maybe some low level math is more your speed, something you can understand.

Advanced degrees: Me 2, You 0

I call that a win for me.

Failed Marriages: Me 0, You 1

Hey, you won something! Congratulations!

I'm quite confident our resident tubbo did not go to college.

garage mahal said...

And then what?

Mysteriously, people keep sending their children to charter schools.

Anyway dum-dum, you've figured out how in North Carolina, collective bargaining by public employees (that would be teachers) is illegal yet 2.7% of NC teachers are unionized, right?

President-Mom-Jeans said...

Seeing as he didn't dispute your claim, I would say you are probably right Jay.

Although there are plenty of leftist retards who attended college or university (and even/especially law school).

garage mahal said...

I'm quite confident our resident tubbo did not go to college.

I wouldn't trade my income for yours in a million years. I could be wrong, but I highly, highly doubt it.

President-Mom-Jeans said...

So to be clear fatty, No, you didn't have any formal education beyond high school.

Your vague boasts of a high income notwithstanding. Is that calculated before or after your ex wife gets her monthly cut?

Bwahaha.

garage mahal said...

68%-32%.

For the Romney poll truthers that's a win I guess.

garage mahal said...

Your vague boasts of a high income notwithstanding. Is that calculated before or after your ex wife gets her monthly cut?

I feel like I'm supporting you by giving you time of the day.

kimsch said...

Vouchers and Charter Schools are two different animals.

Charter schools are public schools.

Vouchers can be use to pay for or offset tuition at private and parochial schools.

Unions don't like either because the teachers at Charters or Parochial or Private schools don't have to be unionized and the unions don't have control over wages, benefits, or work rules. And they don't get any dues from those teachers.
