Headline Written By Another Satisfied Customer, No Doubt
St. Louis teachers [sic] union issues vote of no confidence:
    The union representing St. Louis Public Schools teachers on Sunday issued a vote of no confidence in the district administration.

    About 600 union members voted unanimously, said Mary Armstrong, Local 420 president. The vote took place at an emergency meeting called to address several issues that arose at the end of the school year, primarily the notification of more than 1,000 teachers that they will have to reapply for their jobs under a federal- and state-mandated reorganization plan.
Too bad this isn't a parliamentary system, and the school board cannot fall, leaving the teachers to build a broad coalition and vote themselves into luxury at the public expense.

Oh, but no, they've got their futile votes and informational pickets, and I can only actually hope that they're futile and that the overpaid administrators will inadvertently do what's right for the students in the midst of voting themselves into luxury at the public expense.
