Having the Bully Pulpit Doesn't Mean You Get to be a Bully.

Shouldn't bullying constitute teacher termination?

"It’s illegal to disrespect the president, a North Carolina high school teacher told a student in an audiotape that turned up on YouTube".  

This story about a teacher bullying a student is going viral.  You can find write ups on this story here and here and here and here and here.

This social studies teacher should be fired...not only for her bullying tactics, but also her lack of knowledge of what constitutes free speech. What's particularly disturbing is the young man she bullied transferred to another school while the teacher is still employed at the original school.  From the salisburypost.com:

Rowan-Salisbury spokeswoman Rita Foil confirmed the teacher is still employed with the district and has not been suspended for disciplinary reasons. Foil emailed this statement to a Post reporter Friday on behalf of the school system:

“The Rowan-Salisbury School System expects all students and employees to be respectful in the school environment and for all teachers to maintain their professionalism in the classroom. This incident should serve as an education for all teachers to stop and reflect on their interaction with students.

“Due to personnel and student confidentiality, we cannot discuss the matter publicly.”

Do you think she came to George W. Bush's defense when he was called names, or is it only when you call President Obama a "bully" that a citizen should become upset about disrespecting a President? 

The progressives have a lot of names for President George W. Bush:

Dubya, Bushie, Shrub, Chimp, Smirky, Bushitler, Chickenhawk One, Hitlerburton, Chimpowitz, Rove's Puppet, Cowboy Hitlerstein, AWOL McPsycho, Bushollini, Cheney's Sock Puppet, Chimpy McDrunkard, Darth Moron, Toxic Texan, Dim Son, Drinky McCokeSpoon, Emperor Chimpatine, Fearful Leader, Herr Bush, Moron-in-Chief, and Satan's Monkey.
