2) How sad that Wenke waits until the end of the school year when teachers... [by Anonymous Citizen on June 28, 2007]
are busy doing report cards, shutting down their classrooms (ON THEIR OWN TIME) and the like to introduce this bill. "Nice." Did you think that we would not notice? Very strategic, but pretty LOW.
