Heidi Adsett does not represent our community values and commitment to having great schools. Whenever any concerned citizen has an opportunity, they should remind Heidi Adsett her vision of WCASD is not ours and that she should resign. Our community should not be afraid to stand up to a bully, and Heidi is nothing more than a bully.

Oh boy, another "Hate-Card" queen - if there's any hatred at all, it's coming from you ... toward Mrs. Adsett ... in fact the ONLY hatred we ever hear comes from union members and their apologists - you need to understand that the REAL taxpayers elected Mrs. Adsett, and are fed up with with having the amount of blood drained from our bodies, increase exponentially year after parasitic year - thank you for your UNBIASED opinion </sarcasm>

You must be the idiot who viciously attacked Mrs. Adsett at last night's meeting.
She has no hatred for teachers. However, you have hatred for Mrs. Adsett.
Mrs. Adsett has the right of free speech as do Mrs. Snook and as do you. The only difference is that they are thoughtful and intelligent while you're a complete jackass!
Try to have a nice day in your perverted mind.
Wayne Zimmerman (BTW, that's my real name. Are you and others afraid to publish yours??)

More than my mortgage - quite a substantial amount wouldn't you think ... for never having a child in the public school system, and never having attended a public school myself?

I work every day in a small business - please share yourself, and please share the reasoning for your affinity to the education blob.

My mortgage on my shack is paid off - the fact remains that I still pay taxes for an education system that is unsustainable - it's time to realize that brick & mortar schools are toast, due to the speedily approaching energy cataclysm - when fuel prices hit $8 the cry will become, what else can we do, and what we will do is cyber - let's put the energy there .. NOW.

Are you related to George Zimmerman, the evil man who brutally murdered Trevon Martin. George is from this area.

I agree Roxy, but you should also have mentioned .. you will have the illusions of your existence completely shattered.

Star Thrower - how sad for you then. If your property taxes are more than your mortgage, you must live in a shack. I can better understand your rationale. Are you part of the 47%? If so, I am sure you are waiting for the trickle down to trickle to you. Keep your umbrella up.

Ignorance abound - Let's get rid of ALL the teachers, like Shakespeare said about the lawyers. Don't pay the teachers - let them eat cake and work for free. That will show them. Who needs to read, when you have FOX News, right?

No ... lets just get rid of the union, the teachers can stay, and watch cyber eat their cake.

Oh, for the love of <insert your preferred greater being here>!!! Coach, does your dictionary also say that teachers don't deserve to be paid wages? Do you work for free??

I'm glad that we have great HS facilities and only wish the board would speed up the plans to do the same for the elementary schools, they are really bad. I would never work in a building without a/c and wouldn't expect anyone else to either, much the less send my child to a building where the air is stale and warm. Back to school night wasn't all that comfortable in these buildings but the staff did they best they could with the fans they provided themselves. As for raises, employers of a similar size in Chester County have averaged 3-4% the last few years, give me a break -- our local economy is sound, just look at the lines at the Apple store and restaurants where there are few tables to be found on a weekend night! And, why would we want to send our children to be educated by a bunch of people that have little to no experience. I love the fact that my kids teacher has an ivy league degree, considerable private sector expereince and still makes less than $100k per year, true value in my mind.

Howyalikethemapples - if your kid is anything like you it could have Einstein for a teacher and still not be able to get a job at booger king.

Mr. or Mrs. Star -- Most fast food outlet owners are small business folk who create jobs in thier communiity and employ those who need flexible work hours. Many owners hire teens and young adults looking for thier first jobs where they learn the value of work, reward and customer service. I personally know a few owners of fast food restaurants that have made a nice living for themselves and are part of the 1% today, some of whom have even started flipping burgers and learned a business from the ground up, I don't see the harm. I hope that you find some compassion on your way to church this weekend for those that better themselves with whatever resources they can gain access to. Have a good evening, I will!

Seriously, are you for real? The teachers voluntarily gave up their COLA last year. I don't understand this blatant hatred for teachers.

WCResident - what a load of crap, where do you live pleasantville, or stepford? ...

YOU actually have to understand the enormous deficit of unpaid liabilities YOU have rung up on the backs of private sector taxpayers ... WHY?? OUR SCHOOL SYSTEMS
our schools are unsustainable, and will crumble in the energy cataclysm that is coming very shortly

you ask what happened to the time teachers were respected? that time ended when teachers unions colluded with corrupt legislators to pad their pensions.

If education is maintaining us, why is economy is in collapse?

didn't the union refuse the bonuses already?

WE are not judging teachers .. we are evaluating teachers - that's our job .. we pay their salaries

Thank you, WC Resident. Finally, someone has the guts to speak truth to idiocy.

Nor should you ever be offer a bonus - read what I wrote, which was the union was offered a bonus.

You don't have to witness what you call an amazing education, if you witness what comes out of the school - 3 amazing educations out of each school is nothing to brag about.

Maher, that was very creative - now put away your tanya doll before your mom finds it again.

Hi, Steve -
Thanks for "outing" Star Thrower. You are correct about the Sheepdogs' mission. It is a hateful organization in every way.

Stephanie - stop playing with Maher's Tanya doll, before his mom catches you.

Steve Maher,

Talk about deflection.

"Star Thrower" is not TANIA from www.midnightbluesays.com.

FYI - If you are going to lie, at least spell my first name correctly. However, thanks for linking the blog, I love these hits as they boost my google page rank, introducing a larger audience to my work exposing the actions of the left wing hate group CCPM.

Oh Simon, some of the students I brought to the meeting as they are MY children and their friends. How about that. We do talk, in the car on the way home.

Simon Campbell,
It would behoove you to fact check BEFORE you post stupid comments. Bret Binder is not Cathy's husband; in fact, Mr. Binder is not married.

Thoroughly enjoyable video - you did (and are doing) a great job Simon Campbell.

Does Bret have a boyfriend? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

You are right edufan. I arrived at the meeting and the teachers and others who supported them, including some with their children were very orderly. What I found interesting was the doors were locked, and always in the past the front entrance to Spellman is opened early to allow the public to get in and get seated. How ironic that they kept not only the teachers, but taxpayers like myself out. I am sure that was to create some kind of scene. The fact they had the police there kind of made me annoyed as well. What did they think the teachers were going to do? Really, these are the people I entrust and do trust with my children every day. I feel utterly secure with them and honestly know in any emergency they are as safe with them as they would be with me. Can't say that about the board. All I see from this board, and not just regarding this meeting is every attempt to stifle speech, assembly, political action and perhaps even the law to progress their ideological and narrow agenda. I am sick of it. All I can say is that perhaps in the last election people did not quite get how bad it could be. The message I think is getting out. As a parent I don't care about your politics and agendas, I care about my kids and their education. I don't care about paying a few dollars more in taxes to ensure that education, and I suspect most reasonable people don't. And believe me I am far from rich, I just know a good think when I have it.

Actually RoxyD, my husband is very proud of me and is a huge fan of Simon. He and his family moved to the USA from England at the time the unions were destroying the country with STRIKES. Trash was piled up everywhere. It sounded quite horrific. The one good thing that came out of that situation was Margaret Thatcher. In case you don't know your history, she's the woman who stood up to the unions. My husband and his family are huge fans of Lady Thatcher, as well as any other person who stands up to the union thuggery. My husband "needs to step in"? You have no idea how funny that is! First, I don't need my husband to protect me. We are equals, meaning I am not a feeble female. (I know you libs just HATE strong, independent women.) Second, he knows as well as anyone that I will do the exact opposite of what I'm told to do. What I love the most about this is how much I tick you off and how much of your day is spent thinking about me! I'm in your head and you can't get me out! :-) I'm going to spend the day with my kids now. I hope you have a lovely day!

How old are you? My heavens the immaturity displayed in your comments would be comical if not so frightening.

Yes we are getting along fine, although the genius remark I must admit was sarcasm - did you forget about your 3-finger obsession posts?

Hey, Thrower, guess what? I actually agree with you concerning videotaping the negotiations so then you will see just who needs to be scrutinized. You will see which "side" is compromising and which side is not. You only seem to listen to the one sided claims that are skewed; you do not have the decency to look at both sides. As for your assertion that I possess arrogant unionist behavior, you do not know me so don't presume that I am arrogant. Once again,I need to remind you that, while you point your judgmental finger to me, three are pointing right back to you."

Also, are you still on your Rosh Hashanna holiday?

They are a joke. Look at the books, listen to the financial reports. There is no dire crisis. It is one of their imagination. Nobody is asking for the world here from what I see. The idea because Joe Blow at XYX company is not doing great means that nobody in the school district from the support staff to the teachers can get a contract that even compensates for cost of living is hocus. I know as I work in the corporate community that bonuses, raises, COLA's, movement on pay scales is happening. The taxes here are low. Perhaps they are artificially low, which perhaps is the problem. We have had poor management that has not accounted to bring in adequate revenue to run this district as it needs to be run. The pension is a legal obligation - for which this district did not pay its fair share for ten years. Their fault, not the employees. Kept taxes low - oh well, now we do pay. Our teachers are not overpaid, they are fairly paid. They deserve a decent health care plan. I know they would cost share to a greater extent, but not for an inferior plan, would you. The plan proposed is an inferior plan and will not save the district long term. Check it out people. The facts are out there. Stop reading just one side of the story. Do some work. I live in this community and I am not a teacher and have been able to form a conclusion. Sorry it does not suit the right wing crazies. Facts I am finding don't seem to suit that group. And by the way - I am a Republican.

Binder, you are a poor soul caught up in mainstream media lies- they have to lie because all their advertising comes from ridiculous companies selling ridiculous products made in china that nobody needs - the only thing you actually need is food shelter and energy .. everything else is an illusion you have been propagandized into believing in the public school system, which gets its curriculum from government talking heads .. who receive their orders from the fraudulent investment banks .. who are controlling the fraudulent stack market .. where your pension money is nothing but an accounting notation in a world wide financial system that is several hundred trillion $ in the RED. When will it fail? no one can say for certain ... best minds out there say this December .. or January.

Binder, you are one sad sack whose complete life is being totally manipulated by the Union who wants the country to go another couple trillion in the red so union teachers can remain the 1%'ers of the middle class.

Don't subscribe to this dim fatalistic view of humanity. Sorry. I can only feel sorry for those that do.

I did not expect you to subscribe to this view of humanity - only letting you see how your rulers think - those who do subscribe to this view, you will find here:

Binder ... If you would care to dispute anything I have written, please do so - If you would like to continue trading insults, we can do that also - I have already shown that you and edufool have the IQ of a pair of goats .. the proof being from your own comments, just as edufool is guilty of spreading pimped-out superstition on the web (no doubt she has used it in the classroom also).

edufool ... keep up the 3rd person cowardly insults, I love to remind everyone about you - no matter what spin you put on your "3 fingers of judgment" ideology (YOUR IDEOLOGY Ms shiffer-brains, not your fingers) we all recognize an insecure chowderhead, masquerading as a teacher, who is desperately seeking a living mantra to give the appearance of having a life.

ST go read Dan Truitt's legislation on bullying. You just might learn something.
