So I will ask these folk again, how did this teacher stay on as a teacher in Montgomery County. Who allowed it?  Why was it allowed?  What decisions led to him being kept on?  If it's unions, what politicians are union supporters?  Etc. [/quote]

Those are all good questions. Suppose you look into them, and get back to us with the details of exactly who decided what and when they decided it.[/quote]

I'm not the one that voted for them. I have no such responsibility. I do, however, research the candidates I DO vote for and hold them accountable.[/quote]

I didn't vote for them either. Because school administrators are not elected officials in Montgomery County.

There, now nobody needs to answer any questions![/quote]

School board members are. So are those above them. [/quote]

I'm not sure what your point is. You don't have to find out how come that teacher didn't get fired, but I do, because I voted for the people who are on the Board of Education? How do you know whom I voted for? If I didn't vote for anybody, do I get to not find out how come that teacher didn't get fired, too?[/quote]

My point, is that when people vote on their feelings, they don't always understand the ramifications. People on this site are always going on and on about how MD and Montgomery County is much more progressive (i.e. better) thank VA. Those progressive policies (which infiltrate No. VA as well), have repercussions. So when one votes in school board members, mayors, governors, etc.  because it feels oh so good that they believe in diversity and second chances, etc, you apparently also get known sexual molesters teaching your children.  Conservatives tend to be much more pragmatic about such matters, knowing that when you vote in decent, moral people, diversity is not excluded, as liberals seem to think it is. What you get is diversity AND good, decent moral people. Diversity for diversity's sake is damaging.[/quote]
