WSJ: Teacher’s unions are opposing marriage, funding the homosexual lobby and other leftist causes

The Wall Street Journal has this commentary, ”Big Labor Does Gay Marriage: Because a teachers’ union has other priorities besides education“, discussing last week’s $1 million donation by the California teacher’s association to opposition the Cal. marriage amendment, Proposition 8. It concludes:

In addition to vigorously fighting school choice and other reforms that benefit underprivileged children but threaten the public education monopoly, the NEA has directly (or via state affiliates) bankrolled Acorn, the Democratic Leadership Council, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and, naturally, the Human Rights Campaign, which lobbies for “lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equal rights.”

Public school teachers of America, take note. This is your dues money at work.
