Dear Editor,
Dale “More Money” Morejohn (Aug. 12) is wrong, as usual, this time beginning with definition.
Union Hack: One who distributes propaganda, lies, and other misinformation to promote the socialist and atheist agenda, to continue the decadent monopoly, and to squash free-market competition.
More Money, the local teachers’ union hack, epitomizes this definition, since he has never seen a tax hike he didn’t like. When the public schools do poorly, he complains about “more money.” When the occasional decent test score happens, he tells us that is the result of having unionized teachers.
I remember back when Gilroy High School was two years into the idiocy known as “integrated math” and the downward spiral began. Pseudo-scientist Morejohn wrote in telling us, how dare we question the wisdom of the public education establishment and how dare we accuse the school was “performing poorly.” Could this have anything to do with the continued exodus from Gilroy public schools to private? Gee, I wonder.
Morejohn also whines about being “belittled.” Such is rightly deserved by the union hack, who once stooped to telling us that public schools do not censor valedictorians’ speeches for thanking God. (It just happened again in Las Vegas this spring.)
Lastly, Morejon attempts to defend the public-school obesity problem by telling us about elementary school requirements. Notice in this last column that he refuses to offer a solution and to acknowledge the problem. But I’m sure he’ll tell us to throw money at that, too.
