 You'll remember Chuck Pardee, who wrote about his lawsuit against the unions' practice of using tax dollars and public space to collect money for political campaigns.  Well, he won!!  In the Sun-Sentinel today, Florida news, a great article describes his victory.  It was a four-year legal fight to stop unions from giving employees forms at work to make campaign contributions.  We owe Chuck a great deal of gratitude.  He lives in Ocala, and I've spoken with him many times since he first contacted us.  The teachers' union will not appeal!  Now let's see if we can stop the unions and the administration from using tax dollars to send home propaganda with children about how good the system is and how bad the reformers are.  We also need to stop the practice of using class time to brainwash the students.  Onward, everyone.
