that expired today???


We used to get a whole whopping 250 tax credit.

wasn't that much any way cause we all have probably more than 3000 in expenses every year!!!

I hate bush more and more each day

1. Bush knows teachers don't vote for Republicans.
They are too well educated to vote for the Shrub, so why should he give teachers money?

8. Unfortunately many teachers are apolitical
or else mimc the way their husbands or families have voted. I taught for over 25 years and have been a political junkie for most of that time. It is very difficult to get through to teachers. Most of them don't connect politics with their jobs. This may be changing a bit now because of NCLB (or, as some of us call it, No Teacher Left Standing)

7. What's scary is that a lot of the ones that I teach with are Bush-fans...
WHY?!?!?!? I just DON'T understand... Of course, this IS South Carolina, but STILL... why vote for the guy that's making your job (and life) so much harder???

Nationally, though... I think most teachers are DEMS - thankfully.

5. Well according to Rod Paige of the Texas miracle non-miracle
teachers are educations terrorists, cant be given giving tax breaks to evil doer's.

just another example of Bush's War on America.
