Bullshit totally dishonest title Bob....as usual.
Kicked out of class for being disruptive, interrupting, not shutting up after stating his opinion, arguing in class, denying and defying school policy, and being a douchebag. His time is worthless, not the teacher's, not the rest of the class. He wasted THEIR time by insisting they agree with his ill informed opinion and not shutting up. I hope he has fun in Summer school.
*lies for the misleading title

No Bob. That is simply not factual....except the anti Trump leaning part, but facts are anti Trump, just as Trump is anti fact.

The Obama line is also not a bit factual. Not by a factor of 1000. Obama didn't get everything right, for certain, but I'm not sure he ever outright knowingly lied to the public, which Trump does 4 times before getting out of bed daily. Need I remind you Trump founded the birther bullshit that was a total racist lie and strung you rubes along with promised mind blowing announcements that never came...need I remind you of fraudulent now defunct Trump University, or the fraudulent now defunct Trump charity? How many Obama organizations have been shuttered for fraud, or gone bankrupt from outrageous, even criminal mismanagement?

Yes, Tim Apple was nothing, until baby Trump couldn't let a nothing mistake go and fell over himself making up dumb lie after dumb lie to try to deny it...HE made it something, not CNN, not MSN....lil ole DJT all by his lonesome.

My what is no better?....it's no better that all the rest do what? WHAT?!

Bob, he admitted collusion with the secret Trump tower negotiations. It doesn't have to be illegal, only secret, which that was...he's not being charged with collusion, ok? Happy? We've been over that, you need to do your homework, you're failing class and you're going to have to take summer school again.

And to be clear, like Nixon, it's the cover-up, not the crimes committed on his behalf that's coming to bite him....but also to be clear, this is a much bigger malfeasance than not clarifying "what "is" is" to a hostile lawyer. Trump sent his lawyer to lie to congress about Trump's business, which he did, and knowing that he had lied, Trump did not correct the record, indeed he worked hard to further the lies and hide them.

I know you believe that, but you believe Trump who (ghost) wrote a book about lying to rubes get what you want, so your reasoning skills are in serious question. I'll just say I hope you are wrong, but if you are right and most Americans vote for him, he's the president we deserve.

Yeah, you could say he's been keeping busy.

Excellent Dag. Love me some good old noisy floppy disk noises!
I had a 128 mac my parents bought me for Xmas in 84. I ended up trading it to my brother for his Apple 2 (bought for him when it first came out in the 70's) because he had tons of games for it, and I had little on the mac.
I also learned programming on Apple 2's in 7th grade...an elective summer school class. Does that earn me double nerd points?

I've never heard of the Abbeville institute. Apparently it's a neo-confederate think tank with interest in secession according to wiki and the SPLC.

Abbeville Institute (wiki)

In 1998, Livingston was instrumental in the founding of the Abbeville Institute.[citation needed] According to its website, the Institute is "an association of scholars in higher education devoted to a critical study of what is true and valuable in the Southern tradition". Its principal activities are a summer school for graduate students and an annual scholar's conference.[4] It focuses particularly on issues of secession which are kept out of mainstream academia.[5] The Institute is named for the South Carolina hometown of John Calhoun, and a pre-Civil War hotbed of secession.[6]

As for the argument itself, I don't know what size has to do with democratic principles. Either you believe in them or you do not. As the world gets bigger, the need to work together is increased, not decreased, IMO.

Depends on the extra-curricular activity, but even then, the extra pay is crap. When I taught for 4 years and got hard pressed for money, I never bothered volunteering for that because one night of work fixing someone's computer would pay as much as a two or three weeks doing an extra curricular activity. It also would take far more time away from my studying for IT certs to transition out of education, too.

But it wasn't like I was a special case. Teachers who couldn't survive on their salary or needed extra money rarely would supplement from extra-curricular activities. By far the most common tactic was summer school, but after that, it was either side businesses or an unrelated part time job like waiting tables or something like that. The teachers who did extra-curricular activities usually just wanted to do them; it wasn't about the money.

And yeah, I made $32K/yr as a teacher, so obviously, $800/week is way off, but it does depend on the state you live in. NY teachers get paid way more than us VA teachers due to stronger unions and higher cost of living.

Ugh.. This reminds me of summer school in grade 9.

I had to take science, and the grade 9 curriculum has biology in it, including reproduction.

We had one girl absolutely, positively, 100% convinced that if you have sex, that you will get pregnant 100% of the time. It's a little blurry so I don't remember if she said if condoms worked or not, but i'm leaning towards not.

Since it was summer school, we - unfortunately - only had two days to try and prove otherwise.. It became almost an obsession for the teacher and a few of the students (Myself being included, I actually did quite well at science.. I just didn't show up enough).

And honest to god, I will never forget her saying "My parents and father (Church) told me that sperm will stay alive until you get your period, and then they'll start making a baby, so you'll have a baby no matter what if you have sex, and they wouldn't lie to me."

It's actually from that point on that I started to doubt the church. I'd never been religious, but I learned to question why someone who preaches about morals would blatantly lie.

Then I realized it's because the church is generally run by a bunch of bigots refusing to accept scientific fact into their lives.

Viva la reveluthion.

I taught at the Arkansas Governor's School (a summer school for bright 11th graders) for several years, and we often invited Randi to speak. He was great with the kids, going out of his way to work with them on magic problems and exchanging emails with them. And was very entertaining. He'd meet with the faculty after his lecture, and I was impressed with his sincerity and determination to rid the world of charlatans.
